Albany, NY -- (SBWIRE) -- 04/24/2018 -- Methacrylate is a family of compounds that originates from methacrylic acid. Methacrylate is produced by reacting methacrylic acid with appropriate alcohol. Methacrylate monomers are primarily used as building blocks of acrylic-based polymerization products. They are polymerized to form polymethylacrylate, which is further employed in several applications. Methacrylate possesses characteristics such as durability, strength, flexibility, and transparency. It can be derived to form a wide range of compounds, which can be used in industries such as paints & coatings, adhesives & sealants, and plastics.
