Lauryl Methacrylate is a water insoluble, low volatility, monofunctional methacrylate monomer with a long, hydrophobic side chain.The monomer can be polymerized under the influence of heat, light, ionic, or high energy mechanisms. Lauryl methacrylate forms homopolymers and copolymers. Copolymers of lauryl methacrylate can be prepared with acrylic acid and its salts, amides and esters, and methacrylate, acrylonitrile, maleic acid esters, vinyl acetate, vinyl chloride, vinylidene chloride, styrene, butadiene, unsaturated polyesters, drying oils, etc.
Lauryl methacrylate is widely used as feedstock in the chemical industry. It can be polymerized with each other and copolymerized with other monomers to produce polymers with optimal properties. Acrylic Resins, Adhesives & Sealants, Architectural Coatings, Automotive & Industrial Coatings, Composites, Polyester Resins, UV Cured Systems, Wood & Leather Finishes These unique chemical properties and usage in wide end-use industries are expected to drive the lauryl methacrylate market during the forecast period.
Based on application, the lauryl methacrylate market can be segmented into oil additives as flow improver, in floor waxes, textile and metal coatings, varnishes, adhesives, low temperature caulks and sealants, and others. Lauryl Methacrylate is incorporated as co-monomer in paint resins, elastomers and plastics. It is used as a stabilizer in non-aqueous dispersions and inks. Lauryl methacrylate is also used in electronics and encapsulated products, or as chemical intermediate.
In terms of geography, the lauryl methacrylate market can be split into North America, Latin America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and Middle East & Africa. North America and Europe are key regions of the lauryl methacrylate market in terms of value. Asia Pacific is a rapidly expanding region of the lauryl methacrylate market. The lauryl methacrylate market in Latin America and Middle East & Africa is anticipated to expand at a rapid pace during the forecast period.
