[Chemical Knowledge]:What are the upstream raw materials for methyl acrylate? What are the downstream products?

Methyl acrylate is an important organic chemical raw material, which is widely used in the production of various polymer materials and fine chemicals. Its upstream and downstream related products mainly include the following aspects:

upstream products:

1. Propylene: Propylene is one of the main raw materials of methyl acrylate, which generates acrylic acid through oxidation reaction and then esterifies with methanol to generate methyl acrylate.

2. Methanol: Methanol is another raw material of methyl acrylate, which is esterified with acrylic acid to obtain methyl acrylate.

downstream products:

1. polymer: methyl acrylate can be copolymerized with other monomers to generate a variety of polymers, such as methyl acrylate and styrene copolymer of methyl acrylate-styrene copolymer (MAS), with excellent transparency and weather resistance, can be used to make glass fiber reinforced plastics, coatings, etc.

2. Acrylic resin: Methyl acrylate can polymerize itself to generate acrylic resin, which has excellent weather resistance, chemical resistance and optical properties, and can be used to make high-grade coatings, inks, etc.

3. Surfactant: Methyl acrylate can react with other raw materials to generate various surfactants, such as methyl acrylate and dodecyl alcohol reaction to generate methyl acrylate dodecyl alcohol ester, which has excellent foaming and wettability, and can be used to make detergents, emulsifiers, etc.

In short, as an important organic chemical raw material, methyl acrylate has a wide range of upstream and downstream related products, involving polymer materials, fine chemicals and other fields.
