Monomer

VISIOMER® THFMA

VISIOMER® THFMA is a low viscosity, low odor mono methacrylate monomer that impacts flexibility and adhesion to adhesive applications. Due to its low volatility, it can be used as reactive diluent for reactive systems, e.g. adhesives.

Recording: Improved Wet Adhesion and Scratch Resistance in Coatings with VISIOMER® MEEU Monomer

Recorded Webinar: 

Insufficient wet adhesion has long been a difficult problem for paints, and finding functional adhesion monomers with high efficiency and easy synthesis is an effective shortcut to solve. In this webinar, you will learn about the use of Evonik’s wet adhesion monomer developed by introducing urea group into methacrylate. A small amount of VISIOMER® MEEU added to the emulsion synthesis process can significantly improve the adhesion and scratch resistance of architectural and industrial paints.

Sustainability @ Specialty Methacrylates - Creating possibilities for a sustainable world

We had outlined novel sustainable specialty methacrylates from Evonik´s Specialty Methacrylate product line and had given examples including solutions for ambient-temperature crosslinking and for the creation of stable core-shell polymers.                              

  • Biobased methacrylates as drop-in solutions for existing monomers & extended solutions creating new monomers with superior performance 

  • Methacrylate solutions beyond biobased

  • Creating positive effects for carbon footprint & handprint
