01 Polyurethane The structure of polyurethane is formed by the reaction of polyisocyanates (e.g., diisocyanate OCN-R-NCO) and polyols (e.g., diol HO-R-OH), where urethane segments are repeating structural units. Polyurethane structures have structures similar to amide and ester groups; therefore, the chemical and physical properties of polyurethane are between those of polyamides and polyesters. S...

Acrylic resin synthesis is fundamentally a free-radical polymerization process, consisting of chain initiation, chain propagation, and chain termination, often accompanied by chain transfer throughout the reaction. For thermoplastic acrylic resins, controlling molecular weight and molecular weight distribution is critical. While increasing molecular weight improves the mechanical properties o...

What is the difference between pure acrylic emulsion and acrylic emulsion
- 2026-04-13 18:08:26
- admin
In the coatings industry, pure acrylic emulsion and acrylic emulsion (typically meaning styrene-acrylic) are two common waterborne binders. Their main differences lie in composition, performance, and application. 1. Composition Pure acrylic emulsion: Made from 100% acrylic monomers (e.g., butyl acrylate, methyl methacrylate). Acrylic emulsion (styrene-acrylic): Copolymer of styrene and acrylic mon...
