VISIOMER® MADAME (2-dimethylamino ethylmethacrylate), also known as DMAEMA, is a monofunctional methacrylate featuring a tertiary amino group in its side chain. As a comonomer in coating resins, VISIOMER® MADAME enhances adhesion to polar surfaces such as metals, fibers, and pigments due to the presence of the free amino group. Its polarity also improves the dispersibility of both homo- and copolymers of VISIOMER® MADAME in aqueous solutions. This compound is commonly used in the synthesis of retention and dewatering agents in papermaking and for water treatment applications.
