  • Applications

    Diethylene glycol dimethacrylate (CAS 2358-84-1) is a difunctional methacrylate monomer used primarily as a crosslinking agent and reactive diluent in UV-curable formulations. In coatings, inks and varnishes it enables network formation and helps control cure speed and the mechanical properties of the film. It is also employed in adhesives and sealants to impart strength and solvent resistance through covalent crosslinking. In polymer and plastics processing, DEGDMA serves to build crosslinked resins and specialty polymers, and in electronics and optical applications it may be used in UV-curable coatings for boards and displays. Additionally, it may be used as an intermediate in chemical syntheses to tailor resin formulations, and its use is typically subject to local regulations and formulation limits.
