Acetomer 1174 (1,3,4,6-Tetrakis(methoxymethyl)glycoluril) is a highly versatile chemical compound with widespread applications as a crosslinker across multiple industrial sectors. In coatings, it serves as a crosslinking agent for powder coatings, improving their durability, strength, and resistance to wear and environmental factors. It also enhances the precision of photolithography processes in photoresists with antireflective coatings, resulting in sharper image resolution. In hydrogels, Acetomer 1174 strengthens the gel network, improving absorbency and gel strength, making it valuable in healthcare and biotechnology applications like wound dressings and drug delivery systems. Additionally, it optimizes water treatment processes, ensuring the removal of impurities and contaminants, making the water safe for various uses. Acetomer 1174 also acts as a crosslinking curing agent for waterborne acrylic baking paint, improving adhesion and durability of the coatings.
