Description

2-Propenoic Acid, 2-Methyl-, Ethyl Ester, Polymer With 2-Propenoic Acid is a high-performance acrylic copolymer designed for demanding industrial applications. This polymer is valued for its excellent film-forming properties, adhesion, and chemical resistance, making it a critical component in advanced coating and adhesive formulations. It is essential for manufacturers in the paints & coatings, adhesives & sealants, textiles, and specialty chemical industries seeking to enhance product durability and performance.

Application

• Industrial Paints & Coatings: Used as a primary binder or modifier in water-based and solvent-based coatings for metal, wood, and plastic substrates, providing enhanced gloss, hardness, and weatherability.
• Adhesives & Sealants: Serves as a key polymer in pressure-sensitive adhesives (PSAs), construction sealants, and laminating adhesives, offering strong tack and cohesive strength.
• Textile Finishing: Applied as a finishing agent to impart wrinkle resistance, soil release, and durable press properties to fabrics.
• Paper & Packaging Coatings: Used in coatings for paperboard and packaging to improve surface gloss, printability, and water resistance.
• Leather Finishing: Acts as a topcoat or binder in leather finishing formulations to provide a flexible, protective, and attractive surface.
• Ink Formulations: Incorporated into printing inks to improve adhesion, rub resistance, and drying characteristics on various surfaces.

Quality Control

Our acrylic copolymer is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Every batch undergoes rigorous testing for critical parameters including solids content, viscosity, pH, and glass transition temperature (Tg) to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and performance. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing all 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 room temperature (15-25°C). Keep away from heat sources and open flame. For long-term storage, ensure containers are sealed to prevent skin formation or changes in viscosity.
