BR-371B: Difunctional Aliphatic Polyether Urethane Acrylate Oligomer

BR-371B, a low molecular weight, difunctional, aliphatic polyether urethane acrylate oligomer, is a great fit for coatings that require high tensile strength, superior hardness, scratch resistance, and weathering resistance. Formulations with BR-371B yield hard, clear, low-yellowing films. This is a reduced MEHQ version of BR-371S.
