Next Generation Composite Solutions with VISIOMER® Specialty Methacrylates

In line with the mission creating possibilities for a sustainable world, Evonik offers the composite industry VISIOMER® specialty methacrylates to:

• Replace styrene as reactive diluent
• Substitute petrochemical with bio-based solutions
• Reduce the weight of composite parts even more

The webinar introduces selected VISIOMER® specialty methacrylates - less hazardous and with low VOC (Volatile Organic Compound) for styrene replacement in Vinyl Ester (VE) and Unsaturated Polyester Resins (UPR). Additionally, insights “beyond bio-based” are given to introduce these methacrylates’ footprint and handprint. This information enables the composite resins producers to assess the sustainable impact of the reactive diluents.

Evonik is a leader in specialty chemistry. Its Specialty Methacrylates product line stands for high-quality products, global service, and outstanding expertise.
