December 2022 | SP-01-003 is a fluorinated alkyl chain functionalized with a phosphonic acid moiety. This building block is of high interest in coating applications since the phosphonic acid group brings anchoring properties toward metallic surfaces [...
November 2022 | SP-1P-6-003 is a poly(ethylene glycol) monofunctionalized with a thiol end group. The molecular weight of the PEG chain is 500g/mol, that leads to a liquid product at room temperature. The thiol group can react by thiol-ene coupling reaction with various (...
October 2022 | SP-9S-5-004 is one of our sustainable epoxy resins synthesized from D-isosorbide. By bearing two epoxy groups, this resin can be used as sugar-derived resins in many applications such as the development of new hybrids or composites as well as coatings for...
September 2022 | MAPC1 (SP-41-003) and its acidic form MAPC1 acid (SP-41-007) are ones of the most sell and used phophonate functional monomers from SPECIFIC POLYMERS R&D product portfolio. Indeed, the specificity of the phosphorus containing (...
July 2022 | Resveratrol is a sustainable phenolic compound which can be further converted into high-performance epoxy exhibiting very interesting properties such as a high glass-transition temperature (Tg) or flame-retardancy. Food waste can be a potential source of resveratrol [...
May 2022 | Poly(pentafluorostyrene) - SP-LRI-P-009 - is a fluorinated polymer synthesized by free radical polymerization. This fluorinated polymer is of high interest in very different kind of application especially because of its thermal stability as well as oil and water repellency....
April 2022 | Butanediol bis(cyclocarbonate) (SP-68-021) is a low molecular weight building-blocks bearing two cyclocarbonate moieties. This functional molecule is obtained through a cyclocarbonate reaction in between the corresponding epoxy and carbone dioxide (CO2). ...
March 2022 | 2,2'-Dithiodiethanol diacrylate (SP-43-6-001) is a diacrylate building-block containing disulfide linkage. On the one hand, the acrylates moieties can be used to crosslink thermoset materials or coating through thermal- or photoinduced radical polymerization....
February 2022 | SP-43-3-008 is a methacrylamide monomer bearing a catechol moiety. This monomer is synthesized from dopamine, also known as being the “feel-good” hormone! Catechol moiety represents an important and versatile function for the design of polymers exhibiting high ...
January 2022 | Since 2019, SPECIFIC POLYMERS commercializes functional monomers bearing trifluoromethane sulfonimide lithium (LiTFSI or TFSILi) salts: MTFSILi (SP-49-023) and STFSILi (SP-59-011). As you may be aware of, intensive efforts are dedicated to the research and development of lithium and sodium batteries. In...
