Poly(cyclohexyl methacrylate)

polymer

Poly(cyclohexyl methacrylate) is an acrylic polymer synthesized from cyclohexyl methacrylate monomer, belonging to the family of methacrylate-based thermoplastics. It is primarily of research and specialized interest rather than a commodity polymer, valued for its rigid backbone structure derived from the bulky cyclohexyl ester group. Applications are typically found in optical coatings, high-performance adhesives, and advanced composite matrices where thermal stability and chemical resistance are required, though it competes with more established acrylics and epoxies in conventional engineering roles.

Safety & Biocompatibility

RoHS, REACH, and Prop 65 statuses are validated against official substance lists (ECHA SVHC Candidate List, OEHHA Prop 65, RoHS Annex II). Other regulations are estimated from composition and material classification. All screening is a starting point for due diligence — always verify with your supplier before making compliance decisions.
