Storage method

Storage Precautions^[27] Usually products contain polymerization inhibitors. Store in a cool, ventilated warehouse. Keep away from fire and heat sources. The storage temperature should not exceed 37℃. The packaging must be sealed and must not come into contact with air. They should be stored separately from oxidants, acids, and alkalis, and avoid mixed storage. It should not be stored in large quantities or for long periods of time. Use explosion-proof lighting and ventilation facilities. It is prohibited to use mechanical equipment and tools that are prone to sparks. The storage area should be equipped with emergency release equipment and suitable containment materials.

Synthesis method

Methacrylic acid and n-butanol undergo an esterification reaction under the catalysis of sulfuric acid, and then undergo salting out and distillation to obtain the finished product.

Methacrylic acid and n-butanol The esterification reaction is carried out in the presence of sulfuric acid catalyst and polymerization inhibitor hydroquinone, and then the finished product is obtained through salting out and distillation. See “butyl acrylate”. The reaction formula is as follows:

Purpose

1. Organic synthesis, preparation of embedding media for electron microscopy, adhesives for plastics and optical glasses, emulsifiers for textiles, leather shoes and papermaking, solvents for coatings, and petroleum additives.

2. Used as a soft monomer in the manufacture of acrylic solvent-based and emulsion-based adhesives. Its low viscosity polymer can be used as special coatings, paper and leather processing aids, fiber treatment agents, metal surface treatment agents, etc. Poly-n-butyl methacrylate produced from this product is a transparent elastic material and is widely used as the interlayer of aircraft cockpit safety glass and bulletproof glass such as automobiles, as well as precision radio equipment. It can also be copolymerized with the same series of unsaturated esters and acids to produce materials for various uses.

3. Mainly used to manufacture acrylate polymers and copolymers. Used in the manufacture of bulletproof glass and precision radio equipment, and used as oil additives in the petroleum industry.

4. Used in organic synthesis, binders for manufacturing plastics and optical glasses, and auxiliaries for textile, leather and papermaking. ^[28]
