Application

2-Methoxyethyl acrylate is a clear, colorless to slightly yellow liquid that serves an essential role in synthesizing specific polymers used in coatings, paints, adhesives, and plastics. This versatile monomer can undergo RAFT copolymerization with itaconic anhydride, enabling the production of polymers with enhanced properties. These polymers exhibit improved bendability and flexibility at lower temperatures, increased UV and water resistance, and better adhesion. Moreover, when used as an additive, 2-Methoxyethyl acrylate enhances oil resistance due to its polarity, making it a valuable component in numerous applications.
