2026.07.09

OMNISTAB IEM

Chemical Name: 2-Isocyanatoethyl Methacrylate

CAS No.: 30674-80-7

Molecular Weight: 155.15 g/mol

Core Feature: A dual-active monomer with both NCO isocyanate group and methacrylate double bond, enabling dual reaction and dual curing.

Molecular Structure of OMNISTAB IEM

 

Key Advantages

Ø Dual functional groups for flexible modification

The highly reactive -NCO end rapidly undergoes addition reactions with hydroxyl, amino and thiol groups; the methacrylate C=C double bond enables UV curing and free-radical copolymerization. This supports two-stage modification to synthesize polyurethane acrylates and functional modified resins, cutting production steps and reducing R&D & manufacturing costs.

Ø Low viscosity & high reactivity for broad process compatibility

Clear, colorless low-viscosity liquid miscible with polyesters, epoxies, acrylates, polyols and most substrates. Its isocyanate reactivity is comparable to aromatic isocyanates for efficient capping and grafting without prolonged high-temperature reactions, lowering energy consumption and byproduct formation.

Ø Dramatically boosted finished product performance & superior adhesion

Resins modified with OMNISTAB IEM deliver:

l Doubled adhesion to metals, plastics, glass and PCBs to prevent peeling and delamination;

l Improved water, acid, alkali and solvent resistance, plus excellent outdoor weatherability;

l Higher tensile strength, abrasion resistance and impact toughness;

l Faster UV curing for higher production line throughput.

Ø Stable storage & consistent batch quality

Pre-added polymerization inhibitor prevents self-polymerization during storage. Standardized synthesis and purification deliver ≥99% purity with minimal impurities, eliminating yellowing and precipitation for high-end transparent material manufacturing.
