Description
*HC0709.13 is the replacement for MA0702
Methacryl i-Butyl POSS® is a hazy liquid hybrid molecule with an inorganic silsesquioxane core and organic groups attached at the corners of the cage. Methacryl i-Butyl POSS® is a molecular union of both chemistry and inorganic/organic composition.
Free radical and addition cure. The combination of reactivity and hydrophobicity provides for interfacial compatibility and surface modification. The crosslinking capability in combination with i-Butyl provides for resistance to moisture uptake and low surface energy while retaining optical transmission.
The i-Butyl groups are more reinforcing than the i-Octyl groups present on the HC0710 system.
APPLICATIONS: Surface energy control, hydrophobic wetting, and moisture barrier. Additional use as a compatibilizer can be realized in certain formulations.
