Purified Dicyclopentenyloxyethyl Methacrylate (DCPMA)
Purified dicyclopentenyloxyethyl methacrylate (CAS 79752-12-0) is a high-purity ester of methacrylic acid used in radiation-curable inks and adhesives. Its reactive double bond and bulky dicyclopentenyl group provide low shrinkage and good adhesion, qualifying it for classification under this tariff item.
