Expert Verdict

Key concern: The "isopropylidenediphenyl" moiety is derived from bisphenol A (BPA) - while the BPA is reacted into the polymer backbone and not free, residual BPA monomer could theoretically be present; BPA is an endocrine disruptor of concern; ensure polymer purity specifications confirm negligible free BPA. A urethane-methacrylate copolymer incorporating BPA-glycidyl methacrylate units and trimethylhexamethylene diisocyanate (TMDI); forms hard, glossy, durable films; synthetic origin
