WPBG-027

Cas : 1203424-93-4

generated by photoirradiation, piperidine No outgassing

Plastics manufacturing

Photocurable

  • Generates piperidine (b.p. = 106°C) of secondary amine by light irradiation.
  • Does not generate carbon dioxide gas at the time of base generation.
  • Shows high heat stability in different monomers.
  • Soluble in strong alkali due to its phenolic hydroxyl functionality.
