Glycidyl methacrylate is a colorless, transparent liquid insoluble in water, soluble in almost all organic solvents, and irritating to skin and mucous membranes. Avoid contact with acids, oxides, UV radiation, free radical initiators. Because it contains both carbon-carbon double bonds and epoxy groups in its molecule, it can carry out both radical reaction and ionic reaction. Therefore, it has high reactivity and is an important fine chemical raw material.

Product Application: GMA molecule has two functional groups, active vinyl group and epoxy group with ionic reaction, which can be polymerized by functional group or ionic reaction. Therefore, it can be used for modification of ethylene polymer and polycondensation polymer. GMA can be involved in polymerization in three ways, one is ethylene polymerization, so that the epoxy group is located on the branch, that is,"O" polymer; the other is epoxy ring opening, so that the vinyl group is located on the branch, that is,"V" polymer; the third is a compound with active hydrogen and GMA reaction, ring opening on the epoxy group into a chain. The polymer is modified at the time of polymerization by any one of the above three methods. In coatings, GMA can improve hardness, gloss, adhesion and weather resistance of coatings. It can be used in acrylic coatings, acrylic ester coatings, alkyd resin coatings, vinyl chloride resins and some water-based coatings.

 Acrylic emulsion, binder and nonwoven fabric can improve the adhesion to metal, glass, cement and polyvinyl fluoride when GMA is used; when used in synthetic latex nonwoven fabric, it can improve its washing resistance without affecting the feel. When used in synthetic resin material processing, it can improve its injection moldability, extrusion moldability, and obviously improve the adhesion with metal. When applied to synthetic fibers, it can improve the coloring power of poorly dyed fibers, improve color fastness, and improve crease resistance and shrinkage resistance. This product can improve the sensitivity, resolution and corrosion resistance of photosensitive resin.
