Tripropylene glycol diacrylate is a high-purity tripropylene glycol, manufactured to contain only low levels of carbonyl and peroxide compounds, making it ideal for use as a reactive chemical intermediate in the radiation-cure industry. 
Tripropylene glycol diacrylate is a colorless, water soluble, low toxicity, low vapor pressure, medium viscosity, hydroscopic liquid with a faint characteristic glycol odor.

Benefits of Tripropylene Glycol Diacrylate
-Contains only low levels of carbonyl and peroxide compounds.
-Specifically monitored for acidity, aldehydes and peroxides contents that can cause color and operational problems in the synthesis of the diacrylates.

TPGDA (Tripropylene glycol diacrylate) is a difunctional reactive diluent with a branched alkyl polyether backbone. 
Polymerization occurs when TPGDA is exposed to sources of free radicals. 
TPGDA is widely used as a primary diluent in the formulation of ultraviolet light (UV) and electron beam (EB) energy curable coatings and inks.

Tripropylene glycol diacrylate can be analyzed by this reverse phase (RP) HPLC method with simple conditions. 
The mobile phase contains an acetonitrile (MeCN), water, and phosphoric acid. 
For Mass-Spec (MS) compatible applications the phosphoric acid needs to be replaced with formic acid. 
Smaller 3 µm particles columns available for fast UPLC applications. 
This liquid chromatography method is scalable and can be used for isolation impurities in preparative separation. 
It also suitable for pharmacokinetics.

PHOTOMER® 4061 (TPGDA) is a difunctional acrylate of low viscosity, low odour and moderate skin irritancy. 
A reactive monomer with good cure response, it forms films that are flexible, hard and glossy. 
PHOTOMER® 4061 (TPGDA) exhibits good solvency and viscosity reducing characteristics with typical radiation curable oligomers and prepolymers.

Reactivity Profile of Tripropylene Glycol Diacrylate
Tripropylene Glycol Diacrylate is a ether-alcohol derivative. 
The ether being relatively unreactive. 
Flammable and/or toxic gases are generated by the combination of alcohols with alkali metals, nitrides, and strong reducing agents. 
They react with oxoacids and carboxylic acids to form esters plus water. 

Oxidizing agents convert alcohols to aldehydes or ketones. 
Alcohols exhibit both weak acid and weak base behavior. 
They may initiate the polymerization of isocyanates and epoxides. 
May attack some forms of plastics.
