Description

General description

Exo-5-Norbornene-2-methanol is a norbornene derivative which is widely used as a monomer in the synthesis of polynorbornenes by vinyl polymerisation or ring opening methathesis polymerisation (ROMP). They are also used as a monomer or an intermediate in the synthesis of photoresist materials. This material is also widely used as an intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceutically and biologically active compounds.

Application

Used as a monomer in the synthesis of polynorbornenes by ring opening metathesis polymerisation.

Features and Benefits

• Produces polymers with high thermal stability and transparency which are useful for optical applications.
