The Uses of Hexamethylene diacrylate

1,6-Hexandiol diacrylate is used in organic synthesis; common acrylic monomer in UV -cured inks, adhesives, coatings, photoresists, castings, artificial nails, etc.; monomer in dental composite materials.

The Uses of Hexamethylene diacrylate

1,6-Hexanediol diacrylate is used as a functional monomer for polymers. It acts as a cross linking agent between the molecular chains of polymers. Further, it is used in adhesives, sealants, alkyd coatings, elastomers, photopolymers, and inks for improved adhesion, hardness, abrasion and heat resistance.

General Description

Clear yellow liquid.

Air & Water Reactions

Insoluble in water.

Reactivity Profile

Hexamethylene diacrylate is temperature sensitive . May react vigorously with strong oxidizing agents. May react exothermically with reducing agents to release gaseous hydrogen. Can undergo very exothermic addition polymerization reactions. May undergo autoxidation upon exposure to the air to form explosive peroxides.

Fire Hazard

Hexamethylene diacrylate is probably combustible.

Flammability and Explosibility

Non flammable
