General Description

"1,3-Butadiene, homopolymer, carboxy-terminated" is a complex organic compound typically utilized in the production of synthetic rubbers and plastics. As a homopolymer, it is produced by the polymerization of 1,3-butadiene molecules, resulting in a long, chain-like molecule comprised of repeating units. The carboxy-terminated attribute refers to the presence of terminal carboxyl groups (-COOH) in the polymer chain which significantly influences the polymer's characteristics. As a result, these polymers can bond with various other substances and find applications in adhesive and coating industries, enhancing properties like adhesion, flexibility, and toughness. Handling this chemical should be done with caution because of the potentially hazardous impacts of 1,3-Butadiene on human health and the environment.
