The chemical substance known as "Fatty acids, C18-unsatd., dimers, hydrogenated, polymers with acrylic acid, methacrylic acid and tricyclodecanedimethanol" (CAS number 921214-61-1) is a complex polymeric material derived from the dimerization and hydrogenation of unsaturated fatty acids, specifically those with an 18-carbon chain. This substance exhibits characteristics typical of fatty acid derivatives, such as hydrophobicity and the ability to form emulsions. The incorporation of acrylic and methacrylic acids contributes to its reactivity and potential for cross-linking, enhancing its mechanical properties and thermal stability. The presence of tricyclodecanedimethanol adds rigidity and may improve the polymer's resistance to chemical degradation. Overall, this polymer is likely to be utilized in applications requiring durable coatings, adhesives, or sealants due to its favorable balance of flexibility and strength, as well as its compatibility with various substrates. Its properties can be further tailored through modifications in the polymerization process or by blending with other materials.
