Guangzhou Chemical 2-Hydroxy Ethyl Acrylate

Guangzhou Chemical 2-Hydroxy Ethyl Acrylates can be used in a variety of ways to produce resins that are useful in high performance coating applications. Using typical methods for the polymerization of ethylenically unsaturated monomers, hydroxyethyl acrylate (HEA) can be used to attach hydroxyl groups to an acrylic polymer backbone. The pendant hydroxyl groups can then act as sites for reaction with a variety of cross-linking agents. HEA allows faster curing cycles and/or reduced baking temperatures, compared with hydroxyalkyl methacrylates. Also HEA can be formulated at higher solids in coating applications.
