VCMX (Vinyl Cyclohexene Mono Oxide) is recommended to lower the viscosity of cationic UV curing systems. The range of applications is wide, but VCMX finds its primary function as a raw material for the production of functional silicone resins.  VCMX contains both radical and cationic functionalities.

Product characteristics:

• Cationic UV curable resin
• Low viscosity and reactive diluent for epoxy resin formulation
• Many advantages against a radical UV curable system: low shrinkage, low skin irritation, fast cure, thin film and no oxygen inhibition
