  • Applications

    Allyl methacrylate (CAS 96-05-9) is a reactive monomer widely used as a copolymerizable component in coatings, inks, adhesives, and plastics formulations. It provides an allyl group that can enable crosslinking and a methacrylate vinyl group for rapid polymerization, allowing tuning of network structure and performance. In practice, AMA is used as a functional modifier and monomer in polymer systems to adjust properties such as flexibility, adhesion, and chemical resistance. Applications include coatings/inks (UV or light-curable systems), adhesives, polymers/plastics (specialty polymers and resins), and photopolymer resin formulations for UV-curing and 3D printing, all subject to local regulations and formulation limits.
