Ethyl acrylate, 99%, stab. with ca 20ppm 4-methoxyphenol, Thermo Scientific Chemicals
Description
Ethyl acrylate is used in the syntheses of various pharmaceutical intermediates, textiles and non-woven fibers. It is widely used in the production of polymers including resins, plastics, rubber and denture material. It is actively involved in the preparation of dimethylaminoethylacrylate (DMAEA) which is used as a monomer to make flocculants for water treatment. It plays a vital role in the manufacture of water-based latex paints and adhesives, textile and paper coatings and leather finish resins.
This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
