Designer Molecules U-835

Designer Molecules U-835 is a urethane resin functionalized with an acrylate and a methacrylate. This low viscosity urethane makes it an ideal candidate for a base resin in an adhesive formulation. The urethane linkages help to form a very tough cross-linked film with excellent adhesion on a variety of substrates including metal, polyimide, silicon, and ceramic. The acrylate/methacrylates curable ends make it ideal for both thermal cure via peroxides or UV cure through photo initiators.
