  • Applications

    Acetic acid, 2-mercapto-, 1,1'-(1,2-ethanediyl) ester: Real-world applications are centered in the polymer and coatings industries, with two thiol groups able to participate in thiol-ene reactions for crosslinking and network formation in coatings and adhesives. It is also used as a useful reactive intermediate to introduce thiol functionality into other compounds; as a functional additive for advanced plastics and polymers to tailor properties and structure; it can serve as a surface-binding linker in electronics and sensing applications through attachment to metal surfaces; and as a precursor for thiol-containing polymers and specialty materials. Use depends on local regulations and formulation constraints.
