Derivative: Wide applications of acrylic esters in construction industry

Acrylic esters are organic compounds derived from the reaction between acrylic acid and alcohol. These esters are used extensively in producing adhesives & sealants, paints & coatings, plastics additives, textiles & fibers processing agents. Acrylic polymers are formed by polymerizing various acrylic monomers, such as methyl methacrylate (MMA) and other functional monomers. They are extensively utilized in manufacturing waterborne emulsion polymers in coatings and adhesives applications. Ammonium polyacrylate is a water-soluble copolymer derived from the polymerization of acrylic acid and acrylamide monomers. Polycyanoacrylates are fast-acting adhesives derived from cyanoacrylic acid ester monomers such as methyl-2-cyanoacrylates or ethyl-2-cyanoacrylates. They are primarily utilized in applications requiring rapid bonding, such as medical adhesives for wound closure, and electronics assembly materials, such as soldering aids & potting compounds.

Application: Extensive use of acrylic acids as adhesives & sealants in consumer goods sector

In the paints and coatings industry, acrylic esters find extensive use due to their ability to enhance color retention and weather resistance in architectural paints. Acrylic polymers are formed by polymerizing acrylic acid or its derivatives, such as esters and amides. One of the primary uses of acrylic polymers is in superabsorbent polymers (SAP), which have a high absorption capacity for water-based liquids. This characteristic makes SAPs essential in personal care products such as diapers and hygiene pads. Both acrylic esters and acrylic polymers are crucial materials with diverse applications across various industries. While acrylic esters find primary use in the paints and coatings industry, providing enhanced properties such as weather resistance and color retention, acrylic polymers are employed predominantly in personal care products due to their superabsorbent nature.

End User: Growing demand for acrylic acid for manufacturing of paints & chemicals worldwide

The consumer goods segment utilizes acrylic acid for producing adhesives, textiles, detergents, and personal care products. In the healthcare and hospital sectors, acrylic acid is used to manufacture medical-grade polymers for devices such as catheters, surgical equipment, dental prosthetics, and wound care products. Acrylic acid is a crucial component in manufacturing acrylic resins, which are widely used in water-based paints, coatings, and construction chemicals. The growing demand for environment-friendly and low-VOC (volatile organic compounds) paints has boosted the acrylic emulsions industry. The plastics sector uses acrylic acid to produce polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) which is known for its exceptional clarity, strength, and weather resistance.

Regional Insights

The Americas region showcases a robust demand for acrylic acid due to its extensive applications in personal care products, adhesives, paints, and coatings.
