Functional Monomer: 2-HPA is a monofunctional acrylic monomer containing both acrylate and hydroxyl groups. This dual functionality enables polymerization and further functionalization.
Hydroxyl Reactivity: The hydroxyl group enables further chemical reactions such as esterification, etherification, and isocyanate reactions. This enables crosslinking and polymer modification.
Versatile Copolymerization: Copolymerizes with (meth)acrylic acid and salts, amides, esters, acrylonitrile, vinyl acetate, styrene, butadiene, and unsaturated polyesters.
Polymerization Risk: Readily polymerizes; always contains inhibitor (MEHQ). Keep away from heat and light.
Skin Sensitizer: 2-HPA may cause allergic skin reactions (H317). Appropriate PPE required.
Low Volatility: Low VOC content makes it suitable for environmentally friendly formulations.
Storage: Store in cool, dark, well-ventilated areas under inert atmosphere. Shelf life is 12 months.
Moisture Sensitivity: Protect from moisture.
Versatile Applications: Used in automotive coatings, industrial coatings, adhesives, plastics, and UV curable systems.
Regulatory Status: Registered under REACH. Not classified as dangerous goods.
IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER: This Technical Data Sheet (TDS) is for informational purposes only and is based on available technical data. The user is solely responsible for determining the product's suitability for their specific application and for complying with all applicable local, national, and international regulations. 2-HPA readily polymerizes and is a known skin sensitizer!
