Acrylic Acid Prices, Trends & Forecasts | Provided by Procurement Resource
Acrylic acid appears as a colourless liquid with a typical acrid odour, a flash point of 130 °F, a boiling point of 286°F, and a freezing point of 53 °F. It is destructive to metals and tissue. Persistent exposure to fire or heat can initiate polymerisation. There can be a violent rupture if the polymerisation occurs in an enclosed vessel. Acrylic acid is alpha, beta-unsaturated monocarboxylic acid that is ethene replaced by a carboxy group. It plays the role of a metabolite and is a conjugate acid of an acrylate.
