Description

2-Propenoic Acid, 2-Methyl-, Methyl Ester, Polymer With Butyl 2-Propenoate, Ethyl 2-Propenoate And 2-Propenoic Acid CAS NO 33773-84-1 is a high-performance, multi-component acrylic copolymer designed for demanding industrial applications. This specialized polymer offers a unique balance of properties, including excellent film formation, adhesion, and chemical resistance, making it a critical raw material for advanced coating systems. It is primarily sought after by manufacturers in the paints & coatings, adhesives & sealants, and specialty chemical industries for formulating durable, high-quality products.

Application

• Industrial and Architectural Paints & Coatings: Serves as a key binder in water-based and solvent-based formulations, providing durability, gloss, and weatherability.
• Adhesives and Sealants: Used as a primary polymer to impart strong adhesion to various substrates, flexibility, and cohesive strength.
• Textile and Leather Finishes: Acts as a coating agent to provide a protective, flexible film that enhances abrasion resistance and feel.
• Paper Coatings: Employed to improve surface gloss, printability, and water resistance of paper and paperboard products.
• Specialty Inks: Functions as a resin component in flexographic and gravure inks, contributing to adhesion and rub resistance.
• Caulks and Putties: Provides the necessary elasticity, adhesion, and longevity for construction and automotive sealants.

Quality Control

Our acrylic copolymer is manufactured under strict quality management systems to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and performance. Quality is verified through a comprehensive suite of analytical tests, including measurement of solids content, viscosity, pH, and glass transition temperature (Tg). A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all relevant specifications is provided with every shipment to guarantee compliance with your formulation requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). Keep away from heat sources and open flame. To prevent skinning or premature polymerization, minimize exposure to air after opening. Under these conditions, the product has a typical shelf life of 12 months from the date of manufacture.
