Since it is a polymerizable acrylic compound, LAROMER® TBCH is suitable for the manufacture of copolymers of, for example, acrylic or methacrylic acids and their salts, amides, esters, vinyl acetate, and styrene.

LAROMER® TBCH is recommended for applications such as:

• Automotive refinish applications
• Interior/exterior general industrial, machine, or equipment metal coating applications
• Interior/exterior wood coatings for floor, furniture, or millwork applications
• Printing inks for flexographic, gravure, digital, or silk-screen applications
• Overprint varnishes for commercial, publication, or packaging applications

In energy curable coatings, LAROMER® TBCH serves as both a crosslinking component and a reactive diluent. During curing, it becomes part of the polymer structure. LAROMER® TBCH is a mono-functional acrylic monomer that improves the flexibility and reduces the hardness of coatings based on it.
