Acrylic acid (C₃H₄O₂) is a reactive, colorless liquid monomer characterized by its pungent odor and high polymerization potential. It is primarily used in the manufacture of acrylate polymers and copolymers with applications requiring flexibility, adhesion, and water resistance.
SoleChem, an ISO 9001:2015 certified chemical supplier based in Türkiye, delivers Acrylic Acid (CAS 79-10-7) to customers in more than 40 countries.
Acrylic Acid
Applications
It serves as a building block for superabsorbent polymers, dispersants, thickeners, and pressure-sensitive adhesives. In coatings and textiles, it contributes to improved film formation and substrate adhesion.
Safety & Risks
Corrosive and prone to spontaneous polymerization under heat or contamination. Maintain inhibitor levels, ensure inert gas blanketing, and avoid contact with oxidizers or bases. Adequate ventilation and PPE are mandatory during handling.
Packaging
Stabilized product supplied in lined steel drums, IBCs, or ISO tanks under nitrogen. Store below 25 °C in dry, ventilated conditions away from light and ignition sources.
