Ethyl Acrylate CAS 140-88-5
Sinochem is a major Ethyl acrylate supplier. Meanwhile, our firm staffs a group of experts devoted to your development of China Ethyl acrylate.
EA , a volatile, transparent liquid, is characterized by its sharp, irritating smell. Generated via the esterification of acrylic acid with ethanol, this chemical serves as a crucial building block in the production of diverse materials, including protective coatings, synthetic fabrics, and various plastic polymers.
- Clear, colorless liquid – Looks like water but with a noticeable, strong smell.
- Highly flammable – Easily catches fire, requiring careful storage away from sparks or heat.
- Quick-drying – Evaporates rapidly when exposed to air, making it useful in coatings and adhesives.
- Reactive and versatile – Easily bonds with other chemicals to form polymers (plastics).

Storage: Maintain product integrity by adhering to stringent storage protocols: utilize a cool, well-ventilated warehouse, ensuring separation from ignition sources and maintaining a temperature below 37°C. Employ hermetically sealed packaging to prevent atmospheric exposure. Segregate from incompatible substances, including oxidizers, acids, bases, and peroxides. Minimize inventory quantities and storage duration. Implement explosion-proof lighting and ventilation systems. Utilize non-sparking tools and equipment. Ensure immediate spill response capabilities with appropriate containment materials readily available.
Safety protection: This product is slightly less toxic than methyl acrylate, but is highly irritating to the eyes, mucous membranes, and skin. The maximum permissible concentration is 86 mg/m³. Protective measures apply similarly to those for methyl acrylate. The workshop should be well ventilated, the equipment should be airtight, and operators should wear protective gear.
