List of uses

When a chain transfer agent is used in radical polymerization of a polymer, new radicals are generated by receiving radicals from the growing polymer chain within the radical polymerization system. As a result, the growth of the polymer stops, but other growth reactions start, and the system tends to deliver polymers with uniform molecular weight, even though the molecular weight remains rather small. Our company offers a wide variety of efficient and representative thiol-based chain transfer agents, and the molecular weight of the polymer changes depending on the product grade.

Epoxy resins deliver various different characteristics that are suited to hardeners when they are combined in different types of hardeners, and are used in many scenes such as electronic materials, building materials and automotive applications as high-performance, multifunctional resins. Our company offers a wide variety of thiol-based hardeners, which comprise a type of epoxy resin hardeners, and it is possible to achieve thin film formation, low-temperature curing, improved adhesion, etc., by using a highly reactive thiol-based epoxy resin hardener. There will be differences in the flexibility, hardness, water resistance, etc., of the hardened material depending on the product grade.

Light curing resins do not require a large heating device, rather they cure under a small irradiation device in an extremely short amount of time compared to normal thermal curing, and they are used in a wide range of applications, including adhesives for electronic materials, gel nails, UV resins for handcraft, and 3D printing. While conversion of the light source for light curing resins from high-voltage mercury lamps to LEDs is advancing, it is possible that the mixtures used to cure under high-voltage mercury lamps will not solidify as expected when a UV-LED, which has a narrower wavelength band, is used. Our company offers a wide variety of thiol sensitizers that can cure the resins at a lower energy and that can contribute to reduction of light curing initiator, improvement in adhesion, etc.
