Alkyl acrylate series

NK ESTER BG (1,3-Butanediol dimethacrylate), NK ESTER BD (1,4-Butanediol dimethacrylate) and NK ESTER HD-N(1,6-Hexanediol dimethacrylate) can be used as crosslinking monomer for acrylic resins and other polymers such as MBS*.   NK ESTER NOD-N(1,9-Nonanediol dimethacrylate) and NK ESTER DOD-N (1,10-Decanediol diacrylate) can be used as crosslinking monomer for acrylic resins and other polymers such as […]

Polyaspartic Polyurea Resin F420

PPR F420 is an aminofunctional co-reactant for polyisocyanates used for the formulation of high-solids, two-component polyurethane topcoats and solvent-free coatings. PPR F420 is also useful when reacted with -NCO functional HDI trimmer showing longer gelling time and excellent yellow resistance.

Dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate

N,N-Dimethylaminoethyl Methacrylate is a water-soluble, monofunctional acrylate monomer with a polar tertiary amine group that offers water solubility and excellent adhesion properties.

Tricyclodecane dimethanol dimethacrylate

NK Ester DCP is a low viscosity difunctional acrylate monomer that is polymerized by free radicals. It can be used in a variety of UV and Electron Beam cured applications where flexibility and adhesion are required. NK Ester DCP also demonstrated good film toughness and weathering characteristics.

®Molecule Gradient Layer Double Faced Adhesive Tape

The manufacturing process gradates the molecular weight from the center layer which enhances intermolecular attraction to produce very strong bonds. To secure strong adhesive strength to various adherends, a special low molecular adhesive layer has been selected. In this technique, because the entire thickness of the tape strongly contributes to high molecular properties and adhesive […]

Isobornyl acrylate

IBXA is a mono-functional reactive diluent that polymerizes when exposed to sources of free radicals. The bicyclic structure of IBXA produces polymers of increased Tg, while its mono-functionality minimizes cross-linking to provide coatings and inks with good hardness, resiliency, flexibility and impact resistance. IBXA is recommended for coatings requiring flexibility, hardness & thermal resistance, maintaining high […]

Art Resin Bi-functional Urethane Acrylate

Art Resin KY-103 is a non-yellowing bifunctional urethane acrylate which is cured by UV. EB or conventionally. Films formulated with KY-103 have excellent flexibility. KY-103 has use in various applications but particularly for gel nail coatings requiring flexibility.

Stearyl acrylate

STA is non-crosslinkable, low-viscosity monofunctional monomer used as a reactive diluent for radiation and peroxide cure application. Applications include paints, coatings, adhesives, sealants, textile treatment agent, lubricating oil, and internal plasticizer. BRC% is 85% ※BRC % stands for Bio renewable Carbon ratio. = (Bio sourced Carbon)*100 / (Bio soused carbon + Fossil Carbon)

4-hydroxybutyl acrylate

4HBA has a primary hydroxyl group at the end of a longer alkyl chain which allows it to be used in UV curable formulations and improves flexibility. This can also be used to make specialty acrylic polyols. Compared with HEA, we recommend this as an alternative in UV coatings because of the lower toxicity, corrosiveness, and […]
