Ethyl Acrylate (EA)
Ethyl Acrylate (EA) is an ester of Acrylic acid and is used as a raw material component in the synthesis of polymers. Ethyl Acrylate (EA) is a monofunctional monomer with a characteristic high reactivity of acrylates and a long hydrophobic moiety. Ethyl Acrylate (EA) forms homopolymers and copolymers. Copolymers can be prepared with (meth)acrylic acid and its salts, amides, and esters, as well as with (meth)acrylates, acrylonitrile, maleic esters, vinyl acetate, vinyl chloride, vinylidene chloride, styrene, and other monomers.
Ethyl Acrylate (EA), easily entering the reaction of accession with a wide range of organic and inorganic substances, is used for the synthesis of organic low molecular weight substances.

To avoid polymerization, Ethyl Acrylate (EA) should always be stored in air and not under inert gases. For the effective functioning of the stabilizer, the presence of oxygen is necessary. These conditions must contain a stabilizer and withstand temperatures not exceeding 35°C. The likelihood of excess storage, the storage procedure must strictly follow the principle of "first come, first come." When storing ethyl acrylate for more than 4 weeks, it is advisable to replenish the content of dissolved oxygen. Ethyl Acrylate (EA) can be transported by rail, road, sea, and river.
