Products Description of Butyl Acrylate CAS#141-32-2
Butyl acrylate is primarily utilized as a polymer monomer in the production of fibers, rubbers, and plastics. In the organic chemical industry, it serves to manufacture adhesives and emulsifiers, and also acts as an intermediate in organic synthesis. The papermaking sector employs it to produce paper strengthening agents, while the coating industry uses it for formulating acrylic coatings.As the most significant variety among acrylic esters, butyl acrylate (abbreviated as BA) is predominantly produced via direct esterification in the current global continuous production processes. The core workflow involves: esterifying raw materials (acrylic acid and n-butanol) in two series-connected reactors, using organic acids as catalysts, and adopting a reaction-with-dehydration approach to drive the reversible esterification equilibrium as much as possible toward butyl acrylate formation.
