APO RESEARCH · REPORT
2-Hydroxyethyl Methacrylate
2-Hydroxyethyl Methacrylate is an acrylate or methacrylate chemical supplied as a polymerisation or formulation input.
Product & engineering
Understand the product.
2-Hydroxyethyl Methacrylate (abbreviated as HEMA), is a Colorless transparent liquid with the molecular formula of C6H10O3 and CAS number 868-77-9. HEMA is the monomer that is mainly employed to fabricate acrylic resin, acrylic coatings, textile agent, adhesive and the additive of decontaminating and lubricant.
The functional groups, inhibitor content, assay and supplied formulation define the input. A monomer or reactive ingredient is distinct from the cured coating, adhesive or polymer produced using it.
The commercial boundary
Use the selected edition’s stated product level, geography, years and measurement basis. Materials, components, finished systems and services are separate commercial boundaries unless that edition explicitly combines them.
Which functional composition and supplied formulation define the ingredient?
The functional groups, inhibitor content, assay and supplied formulation define the input. A monomer or reactive ingredient is distinct from the cured coating, adhesive or polymer produced using it.
