Application

• DOM is an unsaturated reactive ester. It readily copolymerizes with vinyl acetate, vinyl chloride, acrylates ant styrene. The Size of the DOM molecule reduces crystallinity and provide permanent internal plasticization.
• DOM finds wide usage in emulsion paint systems, paper and textile coating, adhesives, oil additives and surfactant.
• DOM is a colorless, low viscosity liquid and is shipped without inhibitor. Its high purity allows extended shelf life.
• Wires & Cables
• Leather Cloth
• Vinyl Flooring
• Medical Equipment
• Non-toxic Food Packaging
• Footwear
• Flexible PVC Film
• Adhesives
• Perfumery
• Automobile Parts
• Rubber Belts
• Flexible Pipes and Tubings
• Paints
• Lubricants
• Metal Working Fluids
