Description

Glycidyl Acrylate (CAS 106-90-1) is a highly reactive bifunctional monomer featuring both an epoxide group and an acrylate group, making it an invaluable compound for advanced polymer synthesis and modification. With the molecular formula C6H8O3 and IUPAC name oxiran-2-ylmethyl prop-2-enoate, this clear to pale yellow liquid is widely utilized in the production of specialty resins, adhesives, coatings, and photopolymers. Its dual functionality allows for cross-linking via radical polymerization (acrylate group) and ring-opening reactions (epoxide group), enabling tailored material properties such as enhanced adhesion, chemical resistance, and mechanical strength. Glycidyl acrylate is stored under inert conditions to prevent premature polymerization and is typically stabilized with inhibitors like hydroquinone or MEHQ. Suitable for research and industrial applications, it is handled with care due to its irritant properties and sensitivity to light and heat.

Application

Glycidyl acrylate is extensively used in the formulation of UV-curable coatings, inks, and adhesives, where its acrylate group enables rapid curing under UV light. It serves as a key modifier in epoxy resins, improving flexibility and reactivity for composite materials and electronic encapsulants. Additionally, it is employed in the synthesis of functionalized polymers for biomedical applications, such as drug delivery systems and tissue engineering scaffolds.
