Used primarily as a reactive diluent and crosslinking agent in UV-curable coatings and adhesives. Its acrylate functionality enables rapid polymerization under UV light, improving cure speed and film hardness. The molecule’s flexible ether linkages enhance compatibility with other monomers and resins, while the tert-butoxy ester group contributes to hydrolytic stability and controlled polarity. Commonly found in ink formulations, protective coatings, and electronic encapsulants where low viscosity and good adhesion are required. Also utilized in specialty polymers for controlled release systems and surface modification due to its bifunctional reactivity and hydrophobic character.
