POLY(METHYL METHACRYLATE-CO-BUTYL METHACRYLATE) Chemical Properties,Usage,Production

Uses

Pigment-wetting binder for coatings on plastics.

Uses

Binding agent for printing inks and foil, hardboard and ceramic lacquers.

Uses

Poly(butyl methacrylate-co-methyl methacrylate) (P(BMA-co-MMA) ) may be used to synthesize porous interpenetrating polymer network (IPN) with low-density polymers. These IPN structures are applicable as membranes for separation of liquid mixtures due to their high mechanical strength and selectivity. P(BMA-co-MMA) particles may be used to encapsulate single non-aggregated semiconducting quantum dots (QDs) for size enlargement.These hybrid organic/inorganic nanostructures may be used as single photon sources.
