Glycidyl Methacrylate from Japan
Glycidyl methacrylate is an epoxy-functional methacrylate monomer with a three-membered glycidyl ring, widely used in UV-curable coatings and adhesives. HTS 2910.90.91.00 covers it as an epoxyether derivative meeting chapter criteria for epoxides. Polymerization reactivity drives its industrial demand.
