Application

Dimer acid, hydrogenated can be used as a corrosion inhibitor for the protection of lead metal substrates. It can also be used in polyamide based hot melting adhesives as a thermoplastic polymer for electronic boards, textiles and packaging systems.

Comonomer in polyesters, polyamides and polyurethanes.

General description

Improves flexibility, toughness, impact resistance, dyeability and hydrolytic stability of polymers.

Dimer acid, hydrogenated is a fatty acid with 36 carbon atoms. It consists of a cyclohexene ring which can be synthesized by clay-catalyzed dimerization at 230-250°C.
