General description

It is an acrylic monomer. It may be prepared either by reacting acetylene with carbon monoxide and ethyl alcohol in the presence of nickel carbonyl and hydrogen chloride as catalysts, or by catalyzed esterification of acrylic acid with alcohol. It polymerizes readily under the influence of heat, light or other initiators.

Application

Used in the manufacture of a variety of polymers and copolymers. It is also used as an ingredient in latex paints., binders , caulks, lubricating oils, polishes, adhesives, fibers, plastics and other products.

A collagen-based copolymer, ASC-g-Poly(methyl methacrylate-co-Ethyl Acrylate), was synthesized in the presence of Graphene Oxide (GO) via an in-situ polymerization. The presence of GO that increased the accessible surface area for initiated collagen chains allowed for an accelerated polymerization with highly

Singlet molecular oxygen O(2)((1)Δ(g)) is a potent oxidant that can react with different biomolecules, including DNA, lipids and proteins. Many polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons have been studied as O(2)((1)Δ(g)) chemical traps. Nevertheless, a suitable modification in the polycyclic aromatic ring must
