Description

2-Propenoic Acid, 2-Aminoethyl Ester is a versatile bifunctional monomer containing both a polymerizable acrylate group and a reactive amino group. This unique structure makes it a critical building block for synthesizing specialty polymers with tailored properties. It is essential for manufacturers in the coatings, adhesives, and biomedical sectors seeking to introduce cationic functionality, improve adhesion, or create reactive polymer backbones. Our supply ensures high purity and consistency for demanding industrial and research applications.

Application

• Cationic Polymer Synthesis: Serves as a key monomer for producing polymers with positive charges, used in flocculants, water treatment chemicals, and paper retention aids.
• UV-Curable Coatings & Inks: Incorporated into formulations to enhance cure speed, adhesion to various substrates, and crosslink density.
• Adhesive & Sealant Modifier: Improves bonding strength, particularly on difficult-to-adhere surfaces, and introduces reactive sites for further crosslinking.
• Biomedical & Hydrogel Fabrication: Used to create functionalized hydrogels and polymer scaffolds for drug delivery systems and tissue engineering.
• Surface Modification Agent: Applied to graft polymer chains onto surfaces (e.g., fibers, particles) to alter wettability, biocompatibility, or introduce specific functional groups.
• Dispersant & Stabilizer Intermediate: Acts as a precursor for synthesizing polymeric dispersants used in pigments, ceramics, and advanced materials.

Quality Control

Our 2-Propenoic Acid, 2-Aminoethyl Ester is produced under a stringent quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing to ensure it meets precise specifications for purity, identity, and stability. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing the results are provided with every shipment to guarantee traceability and batch-to-batch consistency for your critical processes.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at temperatures between 2°C and 8°C (refrigerated) to maximize shelf life and minimize polymerization risk. This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) and easily oxidized; containers should be kept sealed under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen) after opening.
