Description

2-Phenoxyethyl Methacrylate (CAS 10595-06-9) is a high-purity, monofunctional methacrylate monomer with the molecular formula C₁₂H₁₄O₃. This clear, colorless to pale yellow liquid is characterized by its low volatility and excellent reactivity due to the presence of both a methacrylic ester group and a phenoxyethyl moiety. It is widely utilized in polymer chemistry for its ability to impart flexibility, adhesion, and UV stability to acrylic copolymers. The IUPAC name for this compound is 2-phenoxyethyl 2-methylprop-2-enoate. Suitable for controlled radical polymerization (ATRP, RAFT) and UV-curing applications, it is supplied with stringent quality controls to ensure batch-to-batch consistency for research and industrial use. Store under inert conditions to prevent premature polymerization.
