CAS #110489-05-9
Methacrylic acid (MAA) is a polymerizable, unsaturated, monocarboxylic acid functional monomer. In copolymers, low levels of MAA allow post-crosslinking reactions, as well as improving latex stability, adhesive properties, wettability and pigment dispersion. At higher levels of MAA, copolymers are used as thickening agents and rheology modifiers, paper coatings, personal care products, oil field chemicals, processing agents and water-soluble polymers.
