Product Introduction
Polymer characterized by heat resistance, transparency, low moisture absorption, and solvent solubility
We develop functional polymers with a cyclic structure as the main backbone through polymerization techniques and functional monomer design.
The characteristics derived from the cyclic structure include high transparency, high Tg (glass transition temperature), high rigidity, low dielectric constant, and low water absorption.
By incorporating additional functionalities through copolymerization techniques, the resulting cyclic polymer exhibits unique properties such as solvent resistance, developability, curing ability through crosslinking groups, and flexibility.
Case Study
Contribution to Heat-resistant Materials
Post-acrylic Polymer
• Insufficient heat resistance with acrylic polymer.
Heat-resistant Optical Materials
• Achieving a balance between heat resistance and transparency.
Features
- • High Thermal Stability (High Tg)
- • Low Water Absorption
- • Excellent Light Transmittance
The properties derived from a cyclic backbone include high heat stability, low water absorption, and excellent light transmittance.
Addition polymers formed from cyclic monomers exhibit the superior characteristics of the cyclic backbone due to their rigid structure. They also demonstrate high heat resistance with a glass transition temperature (Tg) of 250 degrees Celsius or higher. Additionally, it is possible to control the Tg by copolymerizing with different monomers.
