Technical profile of 2-Hydroxypropyl Acrylate, a high-purity raw chemical material supplied by Triveni Chemicals for industrial manufacturing and laboratory synthesis.

2-Hydroxypropyl Acrylate is an acrylic ester monomer with the chemical formula C6H10O3 and molecular weight 130.14 g/mol. It appears as a clear, colorless liquid with a mild ester odor. It is slightly soluble in water and miscible with many organic solvents. It is reactive due to its acrylic double bond and hydroxyl functional group, and may polymerize without inhibitors.

In terms of uses and applications, 2-Hydroxypropyl Acrylate is widely used in the coatings, adhesives, inks, and resin industries as a reactive monomer. It improves adhesion, flexibility, hardness, and chemical resistance in UV-curable and thermosetting systems. It is also used in the polymer and textile industries for surface modification and crosslinking. In specialty chemicals, it serves as an intermediate for producing functional polymers and copolymers. Its hydroxyl group allows further chemical reactions, making it valuable in advanced material formulations.
