Specification:

Chemical Properties: 

Acrylic acid is the simplest unsaturated carboxylic acid, with a molecular structure consisting of a vinyl group and a carboxyl group. Pure acrylic acid is a clear, colorless liquid with a characteristic pungent odor. Density 1.0511. Melting point 14°C. Boiling point 140.9°C. Boiling point 140.9℃. Strongly acidic. Corrosive. Soluble in water, ethanol and ether. Chemically active. Easily polymerized into transparent white powder. Produces propionic acid when reduced. Produces 2-chloropropionic acid when added with hydrochloric acid. Used in the preparation of acrylic resin, etc. Also used in other organic synthesis. It is obtained by oxidation of acrolein or hydrolysis of acrylonitrile, or synthesized from acetylene, carbon monoxide and water, or oxidized under pressure from ethylene and carbon monoxide.

Acrylic acid can undergo the characteristic reaction of carboxylic acids, and the corresponding esters can be obtained by reaction with alcohols. The most common acrylic esters include methyl acrylate, butyl acrylate, ethyl acrylate, and 2-ethylhexyl acrylate.

Acrylic acid and its esters undergo polymerization reactions on their own or when mixed with other monomers to form homopolymers or copolymers.

Application:

Starting material for acrylates and polyacrylates used in plastics, water purification, paper and cloth coatings, and medical and dental materials.
