Product Information

• Name: 1,3,4,6-Tetrakis(methoxymethyl)glycoluril
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Tetrakis(methoxymethyl)glycoluril is a cross-linking agent that can be immobilized on various surfaces, including polyvinyl and magnesium oxide. Tetrakis(methoxymethyl)glycoluril is a water soluble molecule that has been used to coat the surface of optical fibers in order to prevent light scattering. This molecule has also been used as a coating for photomasks in order to control the patterning of thin films, such as polymers or photoresists. Tetrakis(methoxymethyl)glycoluril can be synthesized by reacting magnesium oxide with chloromethyl ethers at high temperatures in the presence of phosphorus pentoxide. The reaction produces an intermediate which reacts with deionized water to yield tetrakis(methoxymethyl)glycoluril.
