2-Hydroxyethyl acrylate CAS # 818-61-1

Low Melting Point: With a melting point of -70°C, it remains fluid in low-temperature conditions, offering versatility in various environments.

Versatile Solubility: Miscible with water and soluble in many organic solvents, ideal for diverse industrial and chemical applications.

Polymerization Control: Contains a 400 ppm inhibitor (hydroquinone monomethyl ether), preventing unwanted polymerization during storage and handling.

Stable and Safe: Exhibits a relatively high flash point (104°C) and low vapor pressure, ensuring safer handling and storage under normal conditions.

Product Description of 2-Hydroxyethyl acrylate CAS # 818-61-1

This product is a colorless liquid characterized by a low melting point of -70°C. Its boiling point varies according to ambient pressure, ranging from 90–92°C at 1.6 kPa and 74–75°C at 667 Pa. It has a relative density of 1.1098 at 20/4°C and a refractive index of 1.4, reflecting its distinct optical characteristics. The open-cup flash point is 104°C, indicating relatively low flammability under normal handling conditions. With a viscosity of 5.34 mPa·s at 25°C, the product demonstrates good fluidity and can flow readily, making it suitable for applications where smooth and efficient flow properties are required.
