organic synthesis intermediates, is also a monomer for the synthesis of high molecular polymers. The rubber copolymerized with methyl acrylate has good resistance to high temperature and oil. Copolymerization with acrylonitrile can improve its spinnability, thermoplasticity and dyeing properties. With methyl methacrylate vinyl acetate or styrene copolymerization, can produce good performance of coatings and floor polish. It is also widely used in pharmaceutical manufacturing, leather processing, paper making and adhesive manufacturing.

Application | is a monomer of synthetic polymer, mainly used as the second monomer of acrylic fiber, and styrene, vinyl acetate copolymers are widely used in coatings, adhesives and other industries mainly used in polyester/cotton, polyester/nitrile and other blended fabrics warp sizing methyl acrylate is an organic synthesis intermediate and a monomer for the synthesis of high polymers. The copolymer rubber synthesized from methyl acrylate has good high temperature and oil resistance. Copolymerization with acrylonitrile can change the spinnability, plastic resistance and dyeing properties of polyacrylonitrile fibers. With methyl methacrylate, vinyl acetate or styrene copolymer is a good performance of coatings and floor polish. In addition, in the pharmaceutical manufacturing, leather processing, paper, adhesive manufacturing, paint and other industries also have its increasingly widespread use. used in resin synthesis, preparation of plastic coatings and leather, textiles and paper processing, also used as adhesives to produce polymers. Intermediates. Activator. Synthetic resin. 1. Polymeric monomer. 2. Organic synthesis. For the production of coatings, textiles, leather, adhesives and other industrial resins. |
production method | the production methods of propylene methyl ester include: acrylonitrile hydrolysis method, propylene direct oxidation method and ketene method. 1. Acrylonitrile hydrolysis method using acrylonitrile as raw material, hydrolysis is carried out in the presence of concentrated sulfuric acid, and the hydrolyzed acrylamide sulfate is reacted with methanol to obtain methyl acrylate. The methyl acrylate produced by hydration of acrylonitrile consumes 98% of acrylonitrile, 95% of methanol and 93% of sulfuric acid per ton. Propylene direct oxidation of propylene as raw material, the first step of oxidation of acrolein, and then oxidized to acrylic acid. The acrylic acid is then reacted with methanol to form methyl acrylate. The production of methyl acrylate by direct oxidation of propylene consumes 95% of propylene per ton of product. Ketene method ketene and formaldehyde were condensed with boron trifluoride as catalyst, then quenched with methanol and esterified to methyl acrylate. |
