Overview of Butyl Acrylate
Butyl Acrylate is a clear, colourless liquid monomer with a characteristic ester odour, widely used in the production of polymers and copolymers. It belongs to the acrylate family and is chemically known as n-Butyl Acrylate (CAS No. 141-32-2). Due to its excellent flexibility, weather resistance, and adhesive properties, Butyl Acrylate plays a crucial role in coatings, adhesives, sealants, textiles, plastics, and construction materials.
In industrial manufacturing, Butyl Acrylate is primarily used as a building block for acrylic resins and emulsions. It improves the elasticity, impact resistance, and durability of finished products. Its ability to copolymerize with other acrylates and monomers makes it highly valuable in tailored formulations for paints, pressure-sensitive adhesives, and polymer dispersions.
ChemicalBull supplies high-purity Butyl Acrylate suitable for industrial and polymer-grade applications, ensuring consistent quality, controlled inhibitors, and reliable performance in large-scale production.
