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


Butyl Methacrylate (BMA) is an acrylic ester monomer with the chemical formula C8H14O2 and molecular weight 156.22 g/mol. It appears as a clear, colorless liquid with a mild ester-like odor. It is slightly soluble in water and miscible with most organic solvents. It is flammable and highly reactive due to its vinyl double bond, and may polymerize if not stabilized.
In terms of uses and applications, Butyl Methacrylate is widely used in the polymer, coatings, and adhesive industries as a key monomer for producing acrylic resins and copolymers. It improves flexibility, impact resistance, and weatherability of polymers. It is commonly used in paints, varnishes, automotive coatings, adhesives, sealants, and plastics. In the textile and paper industries, it is used for surface coatings and finishing agents. Additionally, it finds application in emulsions, plastics modification, and specialty chemical formulations where durable and flexible acrylic materials are required.
