  • Applications

    Chemical name: Benzyl acrylate; CAS number: 2495-35-4. Benzyl acrylate is primarily used as an acrylate monomer to prepare polyacrylates for coatings, inks, and plastics; it is also used as a reactive diluent in UV-curable coating formulations to adjust viscosity and cure behavior; it serves as an intermediate in the synthesis of specialty acrylate monomers and resin components; and it is employed in adhesive formulations to provide acrylate functionality and crosslinking potential.
