Product Information

• Name: 2,2,2-Trifluoroethyl methacrylate
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 2,2,2-Trifluoroethyl methacrylate is a monomer that belongs to the class of allyl carbonates. The reaction solution contains copper complex and allyl carbonate. 2,2,2-Trifluoroethyl methacrylate polymerizes when heated in the presence of a radical initiator. Copolymerization of 2,2,2-trifluoroethyl methacrylate with other vinyl compounds produces a copolymer with a variety of properties. This monomer can be polymerized by free radical initiation to produce poly(methyl methacrylate) or it can be copolymerized with other vinyl compounds to produce new materials with different properties. The hydroxyl group in the molecule provides optical activity and increases the kinetic data for each reaction. Copolymers are known to have better chemical stability than homopolymers and are often used as particle stabilizers in paint formulations.
