Description

Allyl Butyl Maleate CAS NO 68969-35-7 is a specialized organic ester compound, valued for its bifunctional reactivity due to the presence of both an allyl group and a maleate moiety. This unique structure makes it a versatile intermediate and monomer in advanced polymer synthesis and specialty chemical manufacturing. It is primarily sought by industries involved in producing high-performance resins, coatings, and adhesives where tailored cross-linking and polymer properties are critical.

Application

• Cross-linking Agent: Used in the formulation of thermosetting resins, including unsaturated polyester resins (UPR) and vinyl ester resins, to enhance mechanical strength and chemical resistance.
• Polymer Modifier: Acts as a reactive diluent and comonomer in acrylic and other specialty polymer systems to adjust viscosity, flexibility, and cure rates.
• Adhesive & Sealant Formulations: Imparts improved adhesion and durability in structural adhesives and industrial sealants.
• Coating Intermediates: Serves as a key building block in the synthesis of advanced coating materials that require UV stability and weatherability.
• Lubricant & Plasticizer Additive: Employed in the production of specialty lubricants and as an intermediate for synthesizing polymeric plasticizers.
• Chemical Synthesis: Functions as a dienophile in Diels-Alder reactions and as a Michael acceptor in organic synthesis for creating complex molecules.

Quality Control

Our Allyl Butyl Maleate is manufactured under strict quality management systems to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and reliability. Each lot undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including assay, purity verification, and impurity profiling, to meet exacting customer specifications. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting all critical parameters are provided with every shipment 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 away from heat sources and incompatible materials such as strong acids, bases, and oxidizing agents. Recommended storage temperature is between 15°C and 25°C. Keep container tightly sealed when not in use to minimize moisture absorption and prevent degradation.
