Photomer® 4357

Photomer® 4357 by IGM Resins is a high-performance specialty acrylate monomer. It has a unique chemical structure and exceptional properties, specially designed to address the evolving demands of the energy-curing industry. Its liquid form ensures enhanced compatibility with other liquid components in the system without need for pre-processing.

• It has a high reactivity and cure efficiently under UV or EB light, enabling fast processing and reduced cycle times.
• It offers good mechanical properties, including hardness and abrasion resistance, for long-lasting coatings.
• It provides an exceptionally high Tg for UV-curing acrylates.
• It has a high elongation, and is suited for high-impact-resistant coatings used in automotive applications.
• It is valuable for tough materials in additive manufacturing.
• It has a low viscosity and provides chemical and mechanical resistance for protective coatings on metals, wood, and plastics.
• It has high clarity and is suitable for inks and varnishes, delivering sharp, vibrant results.
• It is highly stable and does not exhibit re-crystallization, giving the product a longer shelf life and greater reliability.
• Photomer® 4357 is used in graphic arts, industrial coatings, and 3D printing technologies based on VAT polymerization and inkjet.
