Products in Monomers & Oligomers: High Solvency

Viscoat #155 (CHA) has a simple structure. Cycloalkyl structure induces weatherability with low viscosity, good compatibility and lower shrinkage. As compared with isobornyl acrylate, its viscosity is very low. CHA has relatively higher Tg than other acrylic monomers. Sometimes CHA is used for photoresist because it is easy to hydrolysis because cyclohexanol is secondary alcohol.

Viscoat #196, TMCHA is a good UV diluent with high Tg and low viscosity. It is also highly distillated, so that it has higher purity than the competitors’ product. It has lower smell among cycloaliphatic acrylate.

Viscoat #150 (THFA) is widely used for UV diluent applications because it is almost colorless and has a high solvency derived from THF group. Because of this high solvency, THFA has strong adhesion properties with several plastics especially PC. You can cut down on the frequency of UV lamp maintenance and the working environment will improve because of limited volatiles. Recently the dynamics of poly(THFA) hydrogels have been well studied. Inter molecular interaction of these gels could be formed by hydrogen bonding or entanglement of bulky THF groups Blood Compatibility of poly(THFA) is also studied. Its pendant group is bio-based. It helps carbon-neutral business. The differences between our product and competitor's product are lower color, lower viscosity and better quality consistency. These differences are derived from our unique distillation process.

BZA is the simplest mono functional acrylate that has aromatic ring. As the result BZA is one of the highest refractive index monomer among mono functional distilled high purity acrylate and that has high heat resistance. Polymer of BZA has good dispersant property with some of pigment due aromatic ring. Osaka Organic Chemical is the Lead Registrant of BZA in REACh. BZA is also known as low viscosity monomer. Our product is highly distilled. We can make homo- or co-polymer of the monomer because of high purity. Quality consistency is also very good.
