Trimethylolpropane triacrylate (TMPTA) is a trifunctional acrylate ester monomer used in the manufacture of plastics, adhesives, acrylic glue, anaerobic sealants, and ink. It is useful for its low volatility and fast cure response. It has the properties of weather, chemical and water resistance, as well as good abrasion resistance. End products include alkyd coatings,[1] compact discs, hardwood floors, concrete polymers,[citation needed] Dental composites, photolithography, letterpress, screen printing, elastomers, automobile headlamps, acrylics and plastic components for the medical industry.
Other uses[]
As the molecule has acrylic functionality, it is capable of doing the Michael reaction with an amine. This allows it use in epoxy chemistry where its use speeds up the cure time considerably[2][3]
