Report Scope and Market Segmentation       

Butyl Acrylate Market Definition

Butyl acrylate is known to be a foremost type of acrylic esters, which is extensively prevalent for its hardness, sturdiness, high temperature resistance and high strength. It is mainly used for manufacturing thermoplastic compounds. Butyl acrylate is perfect for surface coating applications. Butyl acrylate is produced from ester grade acrylic acid, which is also known as glacial acrylic acid (GAA), with a small amount of n-butanol at high temperatures, at a yield of 94% to 95%. The production of butyl acrylate is generally integrated to an acrylic acid facility.
