  • Applications

    Diethylene glycol diacrylate (CAS 4074-88-8) is a difunctional acrylate monomer used mainly as a crosslinker and reactive diluent in UV-curable systems, and it is widely applied in UV coatings and inks, including coatings for electronics and packaging. It is also used in UV-curable adhesives and sealants to improve adhesion, hardness and chemical resistance, and as a crosslinking component in resin formulations for 3D printing and for optical/electronic applications. In addition, DEGDA serves as a reactive diluent and crosslinking agent in industrial coatings and adhesive systems, with use governed by formulation requirements and local regulations.
