1,2,4-Trivinylcyclohexane (TVCH)

Trivinylcyclohexane (1,2,4-TVCH, TVCH) belongs to our olefinic hydrocarbons, which can act as a crosslinkers in a multitude of polymers, preferentially in polyolefins, like PE or PP. It can be applied by itself or in a chemically modified way, e.g. after epoxidation, hydrosilylation.

Typical Applications

  • Cross-linker in polyolefins
