TMCD, or 2,2,4,4-Tetramethyl-1,3-cyclobutanediol, is a high-purity, BPA-free diol monomer designed for high-performance polymer and copolyester synthesis. With an excellent chemical stability and stable reaction activity. TMCD is an important raw material for the development of advanced materials with improved thermal, mechanical and chemical properties.
Copolyesters synthesised using TMCD will offer a high glass transition temperature, outstanding impact resistance, and excellent chemical resistance. All of these properties make TMCD mainly suitable for applications where conventional polymer materials will not provide sufficient durability or thermal performance. As industries are increasingly looking for alternatives to traditional BPA-based monomers. TMCD does provide a valuable solution for producing high-performance and environmentally advanced polymer materials.
Product Overview
TMCD is a white crystalline solid used as the functional monomer in speciality polymers for polymer production. It has a unique cyclobutane structure, and the tetramethyl substitution will contribute to the development of polymers for the improvement of performance characteristics. It is mainly used for advanced copolyester formulations, engineering plastics, coatings, and optical materials.
