Methyl Acrylate is a precursor in the synthesis of adipic acid an intermediate in the production of nylon-66. Methyl acrylate is a chemical compound with the molecular formula C4H6O2. It is an ester of acrylic acid and is classified as an acrylate. Methyl acrylate is a colorless liquid with a pungent odor. It is highly flammable and readily evaporates. Methyl acrylate is primarily used in the production of polymers, including acrylic resins, which find applications in coatings, adhesives, textiles, and paints. It can also be used as a monomer in the synthesis of various copolymers.
