BASF SE
BASF manufactures the behenyl methacrylate 1822 F (BEMA 1822 F). It is the form of homopolymers and copolymers. Copolymers of BEMA 1822 F are prepared with (meth)acrylic acid, esters, amides, methacrylates, acrylonitrile, maleic acid esters, vinyl acetate, unsaturated polyesters, drying oils, and others. Moreover, BEMA 1822 F is also a very useful feedstock for chemical syntheses due to its readily undergoing further reactions with a broad class of organic and inorganic compounds. Also, it is used in oil additives as a flow/viscosity index improver for extremely paraffinic oils and pours point depressants. It has been used in textile finishes, varnishes, pressure-sensitive adhesives, or co-monomers in paint resins & plastics.
Furthermore, BEMA 1822 F is a mixture of mainly C18, C20 and C22 fatty alcohol methacrylates, low volatility, water-insoluble, a monofunctional monomer with a high characteristic reactivity of methacrylates and a hydrophobic moiety. Besides, it can be used to impart the following properties to polymers: hydrophobicity, adhesion, weather resistance, low shrinkage, water/chemical resistance, flexibility, impact strength.
