Application

Tetraethylene Glycol Dimethacrylate is a versatile crosslinking agent primarily used in the formulation of acrylic resins. It plays a crucial role in enhancing the rigidity and structural integrity of polymers by linking macromolecules into a three-dimensional network. This liquid is characterized by its water-white to pale-straw appearance and is insoluble in water, but it dissolves well in styrene, many esters, and aromatics. In the context of polymer chemistry, its high purity makes it a valuable component in creating hydrogels and crosslinked hydrophilic polymers. Its utility extends to optimizing the dilution of high-viscosity monomers. However, it's important to note that, like many chemical agents, it can pose occupational hazards, such as dermatitis, as experienced by a dental technician.
