Non-solvent, functional liquid acrylic polymer
ACTFLOW
ACTFLOW is a non-solvent functional and reactive acrylic polymer of low-molecular-weight that have come out of molecular weight control technology. Due to its environmentally sound characteristics as a non-solvent liquid polymer and excellent normal-temperature fluidity, ACTFLOW is recommended as a plasticizer replacement, modifying agent and additive agent.
Structural model of ACTFLOW
【Terminal functional group type】
Since the functional group is introduced at the end of each molecule, this type of ACTFLOW is effective when the number of functional groups must be adjusted independent of the molecular weight.
【Functional group co-polymerization type】
A functional group can be introduced with relatively ease by co-polymerizing monomers that have the functional group. This type is effective for increasing the number of functional groups in a single molecule.
【Molecular ends and functional group co-polymerization type】
This type combines the advantages of the molecular end and co-polymerization type. In addition, different types of functional groups can be combined to further enhance the performance.
【Polymerization of terminal functional group type】
With the molecular structure containing multiple terminal functional groups having high reactivity and the molecular structure containing multiple branches, this type demonstrates the characteristics of the cross-linking component, compatibilizing component and thermosetting resin component.
Applications of ACTFLOW
ACTFLOW can be effectively used as an additive agent to improve the alkali cleaning of resist materials and the removal of residue/sediment in photolithographic processes. Applications also recommend additives for color filter and dry film resist, and modifying agents for olefin, ABS and cellulose resin.
Using multifunctional acrylic polyol, ACTFLOW is useful as the polyol component and cross-linking component for urethane film and sheets. It is also effective for adjusting the impact resistance property of ABS resin.
By introducing the acrylic skeleton with excellent heat resistance and weatherability into urethane resins, ACTFLOW effectively modifies and improves the physical properties of urethane-resin-based products.
Plasticizer and softening agent for various resins
ACTFLOW is useful as the plasticizer for soft polyvinyl chloride. In particular, it has excellent storage stability, thermal sol performance, and "bleeding out of surface" at low temperature in the polyvinyl chloride sol process. In addition to polyvinyl chloride, ACTFLOW has good compatibility with EVA and acrylic resins, and will effectively improve the low-temperature flexibility of acrylic sheets.
Additive and modifying agent
ACTFLOW is useful as the modifying agent for olefin resin and ABS resin. It can also be used to adjust the impact resistance properties of ABS resin, as well as to modify polyacetal resin and cellulose resin.
Modifying agent for photolithography
By adding a small amount of liquid resin with high fluidity and high acid value, ACTFLOW can be used effectively as an additive to improve the alkali cleaning of resist materials and the removal of residue/sediment in photolithographic processes. It is also useful as an additive for color filter and dry film resist.
Base resin for film/sheets
Utilizing the excellent durability and transparency of the acrylic skeleton, ACTFLOW is useful as the base resin for film or sheet. In particular, it is useful as the base resin for thermoplastic acrylic urethane as well as thermosetting acrylic silyl and acrylic urethane.
Base polyol for polyurethane resin
Using multifunctional acrylic polyol, ACTFLOW is useful as the polyol component and cross-linking component for urethane film and sheet. By introducing the acrylic skeleton with excellent heat resistance and weatherability into urethane resins, ACTFLOW effectively modifies and improves the physical properties of urethane-resin-based products. This includes sealants, adhesives, urethane acrylate oligomers, paints, coating materials, films, sheets, and foams. Especially when used with HDI isocyanate prepolymer, ACTFLOW will produce acrylic urethane film and sheet with excellent weatherability and heat resistance.
Grades (Product names) of ACTFLOW
ACTFLOW is a liquid type acrylic polymer. In addition to its high transparency, its composition, type and amount of functionality can be controlled, making it suitable as an additive for adjusting the cross-linking properties and softness of various products including glues, pressure-sensitive adhesives, softness-adjusted products and resin products for optical devices.
