Glycidyl Methacrylate (GMA), CAS 106-91-2
Glycidyl Methacrylate is a colorless transparent liquid, insoluble in water and soluble in almost all organic solvents. It is irritating to skin and mucous membranes. Avoid contact with acids, oxidizing agents, ultraviolet radiation, and free radical initiators. Since its molecule contains both a carbon-carbon double bond and an epoxy group, it can undergo both free-radical and ionic reactions, giving it high reactivity and making it an important fine chemical raw material.

Applications of Glycidyl Methacrylate
Glycidyl Methacrylate is widely used as a functional monomer and reactive intermediate in:
Coatings and paints
Adhesives and sealants
Acrylic and methacrylic resins
Epoxy resin modification
Polymer functionalization
Compatibilizers for polymer blends
Plastics and engineering polymers
Powder coatings
Specialty polymers and composites
GMA is particularly valuable in polymer modification because its epoxy group can react with functional groups such as carboxyl, amino, and hydroxyl groups, while its methacrylate group can participate in free-radical polymerization.
