Chemical intermediates for UV adhesives
These functional vinyl monomers can be used in the more demanding adhesives. With high reactivity and exceptional quality and lot-to-lot consistency, they are the best choice for a wide range of coatings applications as reactive diluents for radiation curing, as monomer for polymerization and as a cross-linking monomer.
Vinyl monomers are specialty products based on acetylene chemistry (REPPE) and in UV adhesives they reduce the viscosity and improve cure speed and the conversion.

Polycaprolactones for adhesives
| Products | Properties & applications |
|---|---|
| Capromer® (polycaprolactones) | Polycaprolactones are used as synthetic building blocks to enhance the properties of the adhesives so that the finished products meet the most demanding requirements. Capromer® are frequently used as soft segments in the production of aqueous PU dispersions, providing good temperature resistance and hydrolytic stability next to very good adhesive properties. They are equally used to produce solvent-based PU adhesives enabling developers to formulate high-solids adhesives with controlled pot-life.
