Cyclohexyl Methacrylate (CHMA)

Cyclohexyl Methacrylate (CHMA) by BASF is an acrylate monomer. It is a methacrylic acid ester. It imparts chemical resistance, hydrolytic stability, hydrophobicity, scratch resistance, weatherability and hardness to polymers. Readily undergoes addition reactions with a wide variety of organic and inorganic compounds, hence it is also a very useful feedstock for chemical syntheses. Forms homopolymers and copolymers which can be prepared with acrylic acid (& its salts), amides, esters, methacrylates, acrylonitrile, maleic acid esters, vinyl acetate, vinyl chloride, vinylidene chloride, styrene, butadiene, unsaturated polyesters and drying oils. Cyclohexyl Methacrylate (CHMA) is listed on REACH, TSCA, DSL, CHEMINV, IECSC, AICS, ENCS, ISHL, ECL, NZIOC, PICCS and NECSI inventory.
