Hydroxyethylcaprolactone Acrylate (HECLA)

Hydroxyethylcaprolactone Acrylate (HECLA) is an ester of Acrylic acid and is used as a raw material component in the synthesis of polymers. Hydroxyethylcaprolactone Acrylate (HECLA) is a caprolactone modified version of Hydroxyethyl Acrylate (HEA), by incorporating an average of 2.8 moles of caprolactone per mole of Hydroxyethyl Acrylate (HEA). Copolymers of Hydroxyethylcaprolactone Acrylate (HECLA) can be prepared with (meth)acrylic acid and its salts, amides, and esters, and with (meth)acrylates, acrylonitrile, maleic acid esters, vinyl acetate, vinyl chloride, vinylidene chloride, styrene, butadiene, unsaturated polyesters, and drying oils, etc.

Hydroxyethylcaprolactone Acrylate (HECLA) is a very useful starting material for chemical synthesis since it easily undergoes addition reactions with a wide spectrum of organic and inorganic compounds.

In order to prevent polymerization, Hydroxyethylcaprolactone Acrylate (HECLA) must always be stored under air, and never under inert gases. The presence of oxygen is required for the stabilizer to function effectively. It has to contain a stabilizer and the storage temperature must not exceed 35 °C. Under these conditions, the storage stability of one year can be expected upon delivery. In order to minimize the likelihood of overstorage, the storage procedure should strictly follow the “first-in-first-out” principle. For extended storage periods over 4 weeks, it is advisable to replenish the dissolved oxygen content. Storage tanks and pipes should be made of stainless steel or aluminum. Although Hydroxyethylcaprolactone Acrylate (HECLA) does not corrode carbon steel, there is a risk of contamination if corrosion does occur. Storage tanks, pumps, and pipes should be earthed.
