Methacrylic Acid Production Cost Report

Methacrylic Acid (MAA) is a functional monomer and an unsaturated monocarboxylic acid. The acid is an alpha, beta-unsaturated monocarboxylic acid, which is acrylic acid where hydrogen at position 2 is replaced by a methyl group. It is functionally connected to an acrylic acid and is a conjugate acid of a methacrylate.

The acid appears to be a clear, colourless liquid with a pungent odour. It reacts as a vinyl compound and as a carboxylic acid. It readily goes under polymerization and addition reactions. It is corrosive to tissue and metals. It has a melting and flash point of 61 °F and 170 °F, respectively. It is less dense than water and has vapours heavier than air. MMA is a polymerizable, unsaturated, monocarboxylic acid functional monomer.

It has a molecular weight of 86 g/mol and a density of 1.02 g/cm3 at 20°C. Its respective boiling, freezing, flash, and melting points are 163 °C, 16°C, 68 °C, and 16 °C. In copolymers, it can help improve properties like adhesiveness, latex stability, wettability as well as pigment dispersion. These copolymers are employed as paper coatings, thickening agents and rheology modifiers, personal care products, processing agents, oil field chemicals, and water-soluble polymers.

Methacrylic Acid is mainly employed in making polymethacrylic Acid (PMAA) and Methacrylic Acid (MAA) copolymers that have further applications in coatings, pulp and paper, textile, paint and varnish, medicine, in the petrochemical field and oil production as binders, film-forming agents, thickeners, adhesives, drilling reagents, dressing preparations, etc., which is driving the market growth.

The copolymers of MMA are used in the production of ion exchange resins and superabsorbents. It is used to make plastics and in the synthesis of its esters and salts. It finds use in the production of various products, including paint & varnishes, leather & textile, film-forming agents, lubricants, plastics, oilfields, drilling agents and dressing preparations.
