Description

2-Propenoic Acid, 2-Methyl-, Polymer With Butyl 2-Propenoate, 2-Ethylhexyl 2-Propenoate, Ethyl 2-Propenoate And Methyl 2-Propenoate is a high-performance, multi-component acrylic copolymer designed to deliver a balanced profile of properties for demanding industrial formulations. This versatile polymer is engineered to provide excellent film formation, adhesion, and durability across a wide range of substrates. It is a critical raw material for manufacturers in the coatings, adhesives, and sealants industries seeking to enhance product performance and reliability.

Application

• Industrial and Architectural Coatings: Used as a key binder in water-based paints and varnishes, providing excellent weatherability, gloss retention, and resistance to dirt pickup.
• Pressure-Sensitive Adhesives (PSAs): Serves as a primary component for labels, tapes, and graphic films, offering a tunable balance of tack, peel adhesion, and shear strength.
• Textile and Non-Woven Binders: Imparts durability, softness, and wash resistance to fabrics, leather finishes, and fiber bonding applications.
• Paper and Packaging Coatings: Enhances surface gloss, printability, and water resistance for paperboard, folding cartons, and release liners.
• Sealants and Caulks: Provides flexibility, adhesion, and long-term elasticity in construction and automotive sealant formulations.
• Industrial Adhesives: Formulated into laminating adhesives for plastics, foils, and films, ensuring strong bonds and clarity.

Quality Control

Our acrylic copolymer is manufactured under a stringent quality management system. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure consistent performance, including checks for viscosity, solids content, pH, and mechanical properties. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting full specifications are available upon request to support your quality assurance and regulatory compliance needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at temperatures between 15°C and 25°C (59°F and 77°F). Avoid exposure to extreme heat or freezing conditions to prevent changes in product consistency and performance. Keep away from strong oxidizing agents.
