Uses and applications

What the substance is used for, by industry and function

Cross-linking agent with methacrylate esters in contact lenses and with alkyl acrylates in pressure-sensitive adhesives, in curable acrylic coatings, for preparing mucilages and thickening agents for aqueous systems.

As monomer and intermediate.

Industrial uses: Monomers, Intermediate.

How it is made

Alcoholysis of methyl methacrylate by allyl alcohol in the presence of sodium methylate and hydroquinone, a polymerization inhibitor, also can be made by esterification of the acid by allyl alcohol. Hydroquinone can be removed by distillation or washing with 5% sodium hydroxide.

The methacrylates can be synthesized by catalytic oxidation of isobutylene and subsequent esterification with the appropriate alcohol, or by reacting acetone with hydrocyanic acid and subsequent esterification in sulfuric acid with the appropriate alcohol. (Methacrylic esters)
