Description

2-Propenoic Acid, Polymer With Ethenyl Acetate is a synthetic copolymer of acrylic acid and vinyl acetate, known under the CAS registry number 24980-58-3. This versatile polymer is engineered to deliver specific rheological and film-forming properties, making it a critical component in advanced industrial formulations. It is primarily sought after by manufacturers in the adhesives, coatings, textiles, and personal care industries for its ability to modify viscosity, enhance adhesion, and improve product stability.

Application

• Adhesive Formulations: Acts as a key binder and tackifier in pressure-sensitive adhesives (PSAs) and construction adhesives.
• Industrial & Architectural Coatings: Used as a film-forming agent and rheology modifier in water-based paints and protective coatings.
• Textile Finishing: Serves as a durable hand modifier, stiffening agent, and non-woven binder.
• Personal Care Products: Functions as a film former and stabilizer in hair styling gels, mousses, and skin care formulations.
• Paper & Packaging: Employed as a coating additive to improve gloss, printability, and water resistance.
• Construction Materials: Used in cement modifiers and tile adhesives to enhance workability and final strength.

Quality Control

Our production of 2-Propenoic Acid, Polymer With Ethenyl Acetate adheres to stringent quality management protocols. Each batch is characterized for critical parameters including solid content, viscosity, pH, and residual monomer levels to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and performance reliability. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting full specifications are available upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); containers must be kept tightly sealed to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture, which can affect product properties.
