  • Applications

    Triethylene Glycol Dimethacrylate (CAS 109-16-0) is a difunctional methacrylate monomer used primarily as a reactive diluent and crosslinking agent in photopolymerizable systems. In UV-curable coatings and inks, it lowers viscosity and enables rapid cure to form crosslinked films. In dental materials, it acts as a crosslinking component in resin matrices for composites and adhesives, helping to develop robust polymer networks. It is also employed in polymer formulations for plastics and photopolymer resins, including those used in 3D printing and electronic encapsulants, to achieve higher crosslink density. Additionally, it can be used in specialty adhesives and sealants where durable, crosslinked networks are required.
