Acrylates
Acrylate specialties for adhesives
BTC Europes acrylic or methacrylic specialty monomers have low colour, low viscosity and high purity. They are versatile chemical building blocks which are used to
- modify polymer properties, e.g. hardness, flexibility, thermal stability;
- influence processing conditions;
- introduce new, additional or superior application features. Acrylate specialties serve industry trends. For adhesives
- they allow faster processing and thus lead to a higher cost efficiency;
- in low VOC (volatile organic compound) systems they lead to a reduction of emissions and comply with legal restrictions; • Our specialty acrylates are unique tools to customize the properties of the emulsion polymerization process.
Applications of our acrylate specialties for adhesives In adhesives applications BTC’s specialty monomers provide excellent crosslinking to increase the mechanical properties and chemical resistance in the adhesive layer.
