LAROMER DPGDA contains two polymerizable acrylate groups per molecule, which enables it to form copolymers of, for example, acrylic or methacrylic acids and their salts, amides, esters, vinyl acetate, and styrene. Readily entering into addition reactions, LAROMER DPGDA is also an important feedstock for chemical synthesis.

The polymerizable groups allow the product to be used as a crosslinking component in energy curable coatings, inks, and overprint varnishes where it also acts as a reactive diluent. During curing, LAROMER DPGDA becomes part of the polymer structure. This monomer provides good reactivity, adhesion and pigment stability.
