PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Acrylic acid is a versatile chemical that can be esterified, aminated or otherwise modified and polymerized to complex molecular arrangements to suit requirements. It has served, for more than 30 years, as an essential building block in the production of some of our most commonly used industrial and consumer products. Approximately, two-thirds of the acrylic acid manufactured is used to produce acrylic esters-methyl acrylate, butyl acrylate, ethyl acrylate, and 2-ethyl hexyl acrylate when polymerized are ingredients in paints, coatings, textiles, adhesives, plastics, and many other applications. The remaining one-third of the acrylic acid is used to produce polyacrylic acid, or cross-linked poly acrylic compounds which have been successfully used in the manufacture of hygienic products, detergents, and waste water treatment chemicals. Polymers of acrylic acid can be produced as super absorbent materials, and soluble as a replacement for phosphates in detergents. Both of these represents fast – growing application for acrylic acid. The economic route acrylic compounds is through propylene as can be seen from the rapid and wide spread change to propylene as a raw materials for acrylonitrile. Similarly the direct oxidation of propylene to acrylic acid is the subject of much attention even though it has not yet attained commercial success of the degree by the acrylonitrile process. Acrylic ester on other hand are projected to grown at only about that rate at 3 per cent per year. As a lower technical grade to produce acrylic ester, typically about on-quarter of world production today is sold as the high purity glacial form. The demand of acrylic acid is good, so new entrepreneurs can well venture into this field.
