Chemical Properties Of Butyl methacrylate Cas 97-88-1

Butyl methacrylate (BMA) is a crucial acrylic ester monomer with the mf C8H14O2 and mw 142.2. Its molecular structure contains a double bond and an ester group, endowing it with excellent polymerization activity and chemical stability, making it a key raw material for producing high-performance polymers. Industrial production primarily involves the ester exchange reaction between methyl methacrylate (MMA) and n-butanol. Reaction distillation technology enhances efficiency and reduces energy consumption.
