IV. Process
It is produced by acid-catalysed esterification of acrylic acid, which in turn is produced by oxidation of propylene. It may also be prepared from acetylene, carbon monoxide and ethanol by a “Reppe reaction”.
V. Applications
Ethyl acrylate is used in the following applications:
1. Coatings – for textiles and adhesives, and for surface and water-based coatings, and coatings used for paints, leather finishing and paper.
2. Paints- for latex paint formulations, acrylic polymers have good water resistance, low temperature flexibility and excellent weathering and sunlight resistance.
3. Adhesives – for use in construction and pressure-sensitive adhesives.
4. Polymers- as a mid-soft polymerized monomer in the production of polymers including resins, plastics, rubber, and denture material.
5. Leather – to produce different finishes, particularly nubuck and suede.
6. Textiles – in the manufacture of both woven and non-woven textiles.
7. Chemical intermediates – for a variety of chemical products, mainly used in the production of acrylic esters.
8. Pharmaceutical intermediates- as a reagent in the synthesis of various pharmaceutical intermediates.
9. Others- in the production of elastomers, thic
