2-Ethylhexyl Acrylate (2-EHA)
DESCRIPTION
2-Ethylhexyl Acrylate (2-EHA ) is a highly versatile building block that readily copolymerizes with a wide variety of other acrylic and vinyl monomers to tailor specific high molecular weight copolymer properties for a diverse range of non-rigid applications.
PRODUCT GROUP
- Acrylates & Methacrylates
SYNONYMS
2-ethylhexyl prop-2-enoate,2-Propenoic acid 2-ethylhexyl ester
2-Ethyl-1-hexyl acrylate,Acrylic acid 2-ethylhexyl ester,
1-Hexanol 2-ethylacrylate,Mono(2-ethylhexyl) acrylate
MAJOR APPLICATIONS
2-Ethylhexyl acrylate forms homopolymers and copolymers. Copolymers of
2-Ethylhexyl acrylate can be prepared with acrylic acid and its salts, amides
and esters, and with methacrylates, acrylonitrile, maleic acid esters, vinyl
acetate, vinyl chloride, vinylidene chloride, styrene, butadiene, unsaturated
polyesters and drying oils, etc. 2-Ethylhexyl acrylate is also a very useful
feedstock for chemical syntheses, because it readily undergoes addition
reactions with a wide variety of organic and inorganic compounds
