General description

Butyl glycidyl ether is an epoxy monomer that is mainly used as an aliphatic reactive diluent in the modification of epoxy systems. Its structure consists of a soft segment and one epoxy segment which can be incorporated into the epoxy resins for reducing the viscosity. It facilitates and enhances the mechanical properties by improving the cryogenic strength, ductility and impact resistance of the polymers.
