About 2-Hydroxyethyl Methacrylate
2-Hydroxyethyl Methacrylate (HEMA) is a colorless, viscous liquid monomer characterized by both methacrylate and hydroxyl functional groups. This dual functionality allows HEMA to copolymerize readily with a variety of monomers, forming polymers with strong adhesion, flexibility, and excellent hydrophilicity. The hydroxyl group enhances reactivity with other functional resins and crosslinkers.
HEMA is extensively used in the production of acrylic resins for coatings, adhesives, sealants, and elastomers (CASE applications), as well as in hydrogels for biomedical and personal care uses. Its excellent solvency and low volatility make it suitable for UV- and EB-curable systems, and printing inks.
