In the world of material science and manufacturing, adhesives play a critical role across numerous industries, from construction and automotive to electronics and consumer goods. The development of high-performance adhesives often hinges on the selection of specialized monomers that impart specific desirable properties. 2-Hydroxyethyl Methacrylate (HEMA), CAS number 868-77-9, is one such monomer, celebrated for its versatility and ability to significantly enhance adhesive formulations. As a premier supplier of fine chemical intermediates, NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. provides HEMA to formulators seeking superior bonding solutions.

HEMA, a colorless transparent liquid with a purity standard of at least 98%, offers a unique combination of functional groups that make it highly valuable in adhesive applications. The presence of a hydroxyl group (-OH) provides sites for cross-linking and enhances adhesion to polar substrates through hydrogen bonding. The methacrylate ester group allows HEMA to readily copolymerize with a wide range of other vinyl monomers, enabling the creation of tailor-made adhesive polymers with precisely controlled properties such as tack, peel strength, shear resistance, and thermal stability.

The utility of HEMA in adhesives is broad. It can be incorporated into acrylic adhesive systems to improve their cohesive strength and adhesion to challenging surfaces like metals and certain plastics. In UV-curable adhesive formulations, HEMA acts as a reactive diluent, reducing viscosity for easier application while contributing to the cured network’s mechanical properties and adhesion. For applications requiring durable bonds that can withstand environmental stresses, HEMA’s ability to form cross-linked networks is particularly advantageous. Procurement professionals looking to buy HEMA for adhesive development will find that reliable sourcing is key to consistent product performance.
