Manufacturing Process

This report comprises a thorough value chain evaluation for HPMA (Hydroxypropyl Methacrylate) manufacturing and consists of an in-depth production cost analysis revolving around industrial HPMA (Hydroxypropyl Methacrylate) manufacturing.

• Production from DL-1-Amino-2-Propanol and Methacryloyl Chloride: The feedstock required for the industrial manufacturing process includes DL-1-Amino-2-Propanol and Methacryloyl Chloride.

The manufacturing process of HPMA (Hydroxypropyl Methacrylate) initiates with the mixing of DL-1-amino-2-propanol with sodium hydroxide and water with continuous stirring. The reaction proceeds by the dropwise addition of methacryloyl chloride. The mixture is analyzed once the temperature reaches room temperature. In the next step, liquid extraction takes place with toluene to separate by-products. Magnesium sulfate is used to dry the organic layer by removing any remaining water, followed by solvent evaporation. Finally, the product undergoes recrystallization with the help of acetone, cooled, filtered, and dried to remove acetone to produce pure crystals of HPMA (Hydroxypropyl Methacrylate).
 

Properties of HPMA (Hydroxypropyl Methacrylate)

HPMA (Hydroxypropyl Methacrylate) (C7H12O3) is an ester of methacrylic acid having a methacrylate group with high reactivity and a hydrophilic hydroxyl group. It is a clear, colorless liquid (or white crystalline solid at low temperatures) with a slightly unpleasant odor. It copolymerizes with various monomers. The hydroxyl groups enhance adhesion, provide cross-linking sites, and contribute to corrosion resistance, abrasion resistance, and low volatility, odor, and color. It is non-volatile, non-toxic, and non-yellowing. It is soluble in water, alcohols, ethers, and organic solvents. It has a molecular weight of 144.17 g/mol and a density of 1.029 g/cm³ at 20°C. Its boiling point is 209°C at 5 mmHg, the freezing point and melting point are around -58°C and the flash point is 104°C. Other properties of the compound include chemical resistance, hydraulic stability, flexibility, shock resistance, and weather resistance, which makes it useful in coatings, adhesives, and polymer applications.
