Catalog Number
ACM9003638-2
Product Name
Poly(butyl methacrylate)
Category
Bioelectronic Materials; Hydrophobic Polymers; Self Assembly and Lithography
Description
Additional Benefit:Conventional high molecular weight poly(butyl methacrylate) easily forms a fused block that require mechanical force (such as hammering) to break it down into small particles before usage. This product was developed with an anti-blocking technology and comes in an easy-to-use, free flowing, bead form.
