Polycarbonate Sheets Polycarbonate is an extremely strong amorph thermoplastic polymer with high impact resistance, high temperature resistance and excellent optical properties, owing to its high transparency. Due to these properties and the polymer’s shatterproof nature, it is used as a substitute for glass in many instances. Polycarbonate is a better choice for impact resistance and […]

DMM is an aprotic and inert solvent used in water-based polyurethane coatings with molecular formula C8H18O3 and a molecular weight of 162.23 g/mol. Dipropylene glycol dimethyl ether is also known as 1-methoxy-3-(3-methoxypropoxy)propan.
It is a colourless liquid with mild odour, miscible with most common organic solvents but with limited solubility in water.
Reactivity
As aprotic (no hydroxyl functionality), DMM can be used in proton sensitive systems such as water-based polyurethane coatings but also as an azeotroping solvent for esterification reactions.
Features & Benefits:
