Popis

General description

2,3-Epoxypropyl methacrylate is a methacrylic acid/glycidol ester. It is used as a monomer to produce polymers based on glycidyl methacrylate (GMA). It is also a dual functionality (epoxy and methacrylate) monomer, thus offering the opportunity for chemical modification of the parent polymer for various applications.

Application

2,3-Epoxypropyl methacrylate can be used as a monomer unit in polymer industries to produce poly (glycidyl methacrylate)(PGMA) for various uses in electronic and biomedical applications. The presence of epoxide group in PGMA allows it to be modified by a variety of functionalities such as amine-epoxy, thiol-epoxy, azide-epoxy, and acid-epoxy via nucleophilic ring-opening reactions. This overall flexibility in the functionalization of PGMA is because of the controlled polymerization of 2,3-epoxypropyl methacrylate monomer via free radical polymerization. Thus, PGMA is one of the most adaptable reactive scaffolds in polymer chemistry due to the long shelf life of the resulting polymers.

It is also used to prepare poly(n-butyl methacrylate-co-glycidyl methacrylate) copolymers, which find applications in adhesives, surface coatings, and electrical devices in various polymeric industries. The presence of epoxy groups and flexible butyl groups in epoxy resin-modified copolymers increases its mechanical properties, impact strength, and fracture elongation.
