    It has a density of 1.17–1.20 g/cm 3, [1] [16] which is approximately half that of glass, which is generally, depending on composition, 2.22.53 g/cm 3. [1] It also has good impact strength, higher than both glass and polystyrene, but significantly lower than polycarbonate and some engineered polymers.

  4. Acrylic resin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acrylic_resin

    An acrylic resin is a thermoplastic or thermosetting plastic substance typically derived from acrylic acid, methacrylic acid and acrylate monomers such as butyl acrylate and methacrylate monomers such as methyl methacrylate. Thermoplastic acrylics designate a group of acrylic resins typically containing both a high molecular weight and a high ...

    Acrylic elastomer is a general term for a type of synthetic rubber whose primary component is acrylic acid alkyl ester (ethyl or butyl ester). [3] Acrylic elastomer possesses characteristics of heat and oil resistance, with the ability to withstand temperatures of 170–180 °C. It is used primarily for producing oil seals and packaging related ...

    Methacrylates ( CH 2 =C(CH 3)CO 2 R) and cyanoacrylates ( CH 2 =C(CN)CO 2 R,) are closely related to acrylates. The feature a methyl and a nitrile in place of the H alpha to the carboxy functional group. They share several properties, being polymerized by radicals and being colorless.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acrylic_acid

    Acrylic acid (IUPAC: prop-2-enoic acid) is an organic compound with the formula CH 2 =CHCOOH. It is the simplest unsaturated carboxylic acid, consisting of a vinyl group connected directly to a carboxylic acid terminus. This colorless liquid has a characteristic acrid or tart smell. It is miscible with water, alcohols, ethers, and chloroform ...

    2 CH 3 −CH=CH 2 + 2 NH 3 + 3 O 22 CH 2 =CH−C≡N + 6 H 2 O. In the SOHIO process, propylene, ammonia, and air (oxidizer) are passed through a fluidized bed reactor containing the catalyst at 400–510 °C and 50–200 kPa g. The reactants pass through the reactor only once, before being quenched in aqueous sulfuric acid.
