Chemical Name
Isodecyl methacrylate
Chemical Family
Methacrylates
Molecular Weight
226.0 g/mol

VISIOMER® IDMA (Isodecyl methacrylate) is a hydrophobic monomer known for its low shrinkage and low glass transition temperature (Tg). It exhibits excellent dilution power, resulting in low viscosity when used in polymer formulations. The low Tg of IDMA imparts extreme softness to the resulting polymers. This versatile monomer finds applications in various industries including adhesives and sealants, coatings, oil and gas, personal care, healthcare, and textile and leather.
