4,8-BIS(HYDROXYMETHYL)TRICYCLO[5.2.1.0(2,6)]DECANE Usage And Synthesis

Uses

4,8-Bis(hydroxymethyl)tricyclo[5.2.1.02,6]decane (TDMol) is used in the preparation of high molecular weight poly(1,4-butylene carbonate) (PBC). It is also used in the synthesis of photoactive compounds (PAC) for the preparation of positive photo-resist materials.

Application

4,8-Bis(hydroxymethyl)tricyclo[5.2.1.02,6]decane (TDMol) is used for production of di(meth)acrylates that are used in UV/EB-curing applications for adhesives, inks, electronics, and coatings. The (meth)acrylate has good wetting properties, that is why it is used in pigmented UV-curable inks, and a higher refractive index than many other acrylates, hence it is often used in electronics and optical applications, where a higher refractive index is required.

Flammability and Explosibility

Non flammable
