V-Pyrol™ /RC
This monomer is known to be a supercooled liquid well below its freezing point of 13°C. It can remain as a liquid at room temperature for extended periods. Rapid, exothermic crystallization under these conditions should not be confused with bulk polymerization.
V-Pyrol/RC reactive monomer accelerates UV curing rates as the reactive diluent. Typically formulated with an acrylate oligomer, it imparts unique solution viscosity reduction and enhanced adhesion to non-polar substrates. The activated double bond of V-Pyrol facilitates its use in free radical homo- and copolymerizations and grafting reactions. The products of these reactions are either linear or crosslinked homopolymers and nonionic, anionic and cationic copolymers.
Polymers from V-Pyrol are amorphous and the pyrrolidone ring imparts hydrophilicity, adhesiveness, strength and complexing capability.
Gafgard™ 233, a formulated, UV radiation-curable coating containing V-Pyrol RC reactive monomer and a multifunctional acrylate, is used to impart high levels of abrasion resistance to coatings for plastic lenses, protective window films, credit cards, etc.
