Acrylic Monomers
Acrylic monomers are the base material for a diverse range of applications and end products. BASF offers acrylic acid as well as the whole product range of acrylic monomers. More Applications Acrylic monomers are all around us and form part of our everyday lives in diverse guises.
Radical Polymerization of Acrylates, Methacrylates, and
The kinetics of the radical polymerization process of reacting acrylic monomers, methacrylic monomers, and styrene is reviewed. Classical elementary mechanisms are briefly discussed, while focus is put on secondary chemical reactions that influence rates greatly at elevated system temperatures, starved-feed conditions, and unideal-mixed reactor
Plasticizers
Plasticizers from BASF BASF is one of the world’s leading manufacturers of plasticizers. BASF offers a broad product portfolio of plasticizers for standard as well as special applications, such as toys and medical devices. Plasticizers give flexibility to PVC products such as cables or films.
Plasticizers: Types, Uses, Classification, Selection & Regulation
It is almost colorless and odorless oily liquid. It is very slightly soluble in water but soluble in alcohols, hexane etc. while miscible and compatible with all the monomeric plasticizers used in PVC compounding. Melting point: 43°C (45°F; 230 K) Boiling point: 244-252°C at 0.7 kPa.
DEVELOPMENT OF NEXT-GENERATION ESTER PLASTICIZERS FOR HIGH
along the polymer backbone. Examples of typical acrylic monomers and comonomers are shown in Scheme 1. It is important to point out that due to the high acrylic monomer content, both types of acrylic elastomers are quite polar. Thus, the use of higher polarity ester plasticizers is critical to assure optimal compatibility and compound performance.
