Description

2,3-Dihydroxypropyl acrylate (CAS No. 10095-20-2) is a high-purity, multifunctional acrylate ester with the molecular formula C₆H₁₀O₄. This versatile monomer features both hydroxyl and acrylate functional groups, making it an ideal candidate for polymerization and crosslinking reactions. Its IUPAC name, 2,3-dihydroxypropyl prop-2-enoate, reflects its unique structure, which combines glycerol-derived diol functionality with an acrylic ester moiety. This product is particularly valuable in the synthesis of hydrophilic polymers, adhesives, and coatings due to its ability to introduce both crosslinking sites and hydrophilicity. Available in >98% purity, it is supplied with full analytical documentation including GC, NMR, and FTIR data to ensure consistency for research and industrial applications. Proper storage under inert atmosphere at 2-8°C is recommended to maintain stability.
