Poly(dodecyl methacrylate)

polymer

Poly(dodecyl methacrylate) is a long-chain alkyl methacrylate polymer synthesized by polymerization of dodecyl methacrylate monomer, belonging to the family of acrylate and methacrylate polymers. This material is primarily of research and specialty interest rather than high-volume industrial production, used in applications requiring low-temperature flexibility and hydrophobic character, such as adhesives, coatings, and thermoplastic elastomer blends. Its extended alkyl side chains provide unique mechanical behavior compared to shorter-chain methacrylates, making it relevant for applications where controlled softness and surface properties are engineered requirements.

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.
