Batch documentation
A batch certificate of analysis accompanies commercial shipments. If you need an SDS, a COA for review or specific test data before ordering, include that in your enquiry so we can confirm what is available for the offered material.
RM257 is used in thiol-acrylate LCE formulations and UV-cured liquid crystal networks. Suitability depends on the formulation, alignment method and cure conditions.
Comparing RM257 and RM82? RM257 has three-carbon (C3) spacers; RM82 has six-carbon (C6) spacers. Both are diacrylates. Check phase behaviour and cure conditions in your formulation before substituting one for the other.
For formulation considerations, see alignment and oxygen inhibition.
