Allyl methacrylate Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

Allyl Methacrylate is water-insoluble, with low volatility clear liquid.

Uses

Allyl methacrylate is an important cross-linking agent that provides effective bifunctional cross-linking in the second stage, with good chemical resistance, impact strength, adhesion, hardness and low shrinkage. Used in dental materials, industrial paints, silicone intermediates, light stabilizers, optical polymers, elastomers and some vinyl and acrylate polymer systems. It is also used in oil additives as flow improver, in-floor waxes, textile and metal coatings, paint, varnishes, pressure-sensitive adhesives, low temperature caulks, and sealants.

Preparation

Allyl methacrylate can be synthesized by the reaction of acrylamide and allyl alcohol under the action of concentrated acid and H2O2. It can also be obtained by transesterification of allyl acetate and methyl methacrylate.

Application

Allyl Methacrylate (AMA) is a very useful starting material for chemical synthesis since it easily undergoes addition reactions with a wide spectrum of organic and inorganic compounds. It is used mainly in closed system processing as a co-monomer (rigid plastics) and cross linker (silanes).

General Description

Allyl methacrylate (AMA) is an acrylic monomer with two types of vinyl groups which include methacrylic and allylic based double bonds. It is mainly utilized as a cross-linking agent to increase the hardness of the base material. It also facilitates an improvement in the heat resistant property of the resin.
