Polyacrylic acid use and synthesis method

Overview Polyacrylic acid, abbreviated as PAA, alias 2-acrylic acid homopolymer, acrylic resin coating, acrylic resin, acrylic monomer polymer, acrylic acid modified resin, acrylic resin emulsion, is a water-soluble acrylic polymer, also Soluble in some polar solvents, such as methanol, dioxane and ethylene glycol. Ionization constant 4.75. Because the molecule contains a large number of carboxyl groups, it can react with bases, alcohols, and amines, and can also undergo dehydration, degradation, and complexation reactions. It can be used as thickeners, dispersants, flocculants, adhesives and film formers. It is widely used in coatings, plastics, paper, textile, rubber, food, medicine, cosmetics and water treatment industries.
