Vinyl Cyclohexene Oxide
VCMX (Vinyl Cyclohexene Mono Oxide) is recommended to lower the viscosity of cationic UV curing systems. The range of applications is wide, but VCMX finds its primary function as a raw material for the production of functional silicone resins. VCMX contains both radical and cationic functionalities.
- Cationic UV curable resin
- Low viscosity and reactive diluent for epoxy resin formulation
- Many advantages against a radical UV curable system: low shrinkage, low skin irritation, fast cure, thin film and no oxygen inhibition
