BASF Glacial Acrylic Acid
Categories: Fluid; Solvent
Material Notes: Formula: C3H4O2

CAS: 79-10-7

Description: Acrylic acid glacial is a colorless liquid having a sharp, acrid odor. It is completely soluble in water. Acrylic acid is a monomer used in industrial synthesis and for producing polymers

Applications:

    Acrylic acid is a versatile a, ß-unsaturated carboxylic acid. It can enter into common reactions with a large number of organic and inorganic compounds and intermediates for the synthesis of many low and high-molecular weight compounds. Some typical reactions/applications include:
  • As a vinyl compound in addition reactions.
  • As a carboxylic acid — acrylic esters, acrylamide, N-substitute amides and acrylic acid chloride.
  • Copolymers with acrylic esters, methacrylic esters, acrylonitrite maleic acid esters, vinyl acetate, vinyl chloride, vinylidene chloride, styrene, butadiene and ethylene.
  • Homopolymers of acrylic acid and copolymers form water-soluble compounds in acid form or their alkali/ammonium salts. Uses include thickening agents; dispersing agents; protective colloids for stabilizing emulsions and polymer dispersions wetting agents. AAG is used to produce very high molecular weight polymers for flocculents and viscosity control in oil-well drilling mud.
  • Superabsorbant polymers are lightly crosslinked polyacrylic acid salts.They are used for fluid retention, largely in baby diapers, but also in products for feminine hygeine, adult incontinence and agriculture.
  • Copolymers with less than 50% acrylic acid produce polymers only slightly soluble or even insoluble in water. Their alkali or ammonium salts are used in sizes, adhesive intermediates, and binders for printing inks and coatings.
  • Copolymers with small amounts of acrylic acid improve adhesions and improve resistance to oil and solvents.
      In polymer dispersions, acrylic acid addition improves stability and compatibility with pigments.
