3-Hydroxy-1-adamantyl Methacrylate
3-Hydroxyadamantan-1-yl methacrylate (HAMA) CAS 115372-36-6 is a methacrylate monomer bearing an adamantane-derived rigid bicyclic scaffold with a pendant hydroxyl group. The bulky adamantyl group imparts increased glass transition temperature, rigidity and hydrophobic character to polymers, while the methacrylate functionality enables free-radical polymerization for coatings, adhesives and specialty resins. The hydroxyl group offers additional sites for hydrogen bonding or post-polymerization modification, allowing formulators to tune adhesion, hardness and thermal properties in high-performance applications.
