Products Description of Glycidyl methacrylate CAS#106-91-2
Glycidyl Methacrylate (GMA) is a clear, colorless liquid with a strong ester and fruity smell. It has a polymerizable methacrylate functional group on one end and a reactive epoxy group on the other, featuring slight miscibility with water, solubility in most organic solvents, and relatively low volatility—its vapor is denser than air. It easily copolymerizes with different functional groups like phenols, ketones, acids, and amines, while the epoxy group it contains helps enhance durability, mechanical strength, optical transparency, and adhesiveness.

Product Application of Glycidyl methacrylate CAS#106-91-2
Glycidyl methacrylate (GMA) is a common monomer for epoxy resin production, primarily used to impart epoxy functionalization to polyolefins and other acrylate resins. It also finds application in manufacturing polymer coatings and finishes, adhesives, plastics, and elastomers. Additionally, glycidyl methacrylate dextran is reported to act as a biocompatible hydrogel; in situ polymerization of GMA with trimethylolpropane trimethacrylate to form macroporous sorbents has also been documented, and GMA can be grafted onto polypropylene.
