DESCRIPTION
2-HPA – is a clear, colorless liquid with a slight acrylic odor. It is readily miscible with water and most organic solvents. HPA is an ester of Acrylic acid and is used as a raw material component in the synthesis of polymers. It is a monofunctional acrylate monomer with a characteristic high reactivity of methacrylates and a branched hydrophobic moiety.
