Butyl Acrylate forms homo- and copolymers. Copolymers of Butyl Acrylate can be prepared with acrylic acid and its salts, amides and esters, methacrylates, acrylonitrile, maleates, vinyl acetate, vinyl chloride, vinylidene chloride, styrene, butadiene, unsaturated polyesters, and drying oils. Butyl Acrylate is also an important feedstock for chemical syntheses because it readily undergoes addition reactions with many organic and inorganic compounds.

Storage & Handling
- Storage Conditions
- In order to prevent polymerization, Butyl Acrylate must always be stored under air, and never under inert gasses. The presence of oxygen is required for the stabilizer to function effectively. It has to contain a stabilizer and the storage temperature must not exceed 35 °C. Under these conditions, a storage stability of one year can be expected upon delivery. In order to minimize the likelihood of overstorage, the storage procedure should strictly follow the “first-in-first-out” principle.
- For extended storage periods over 4 weeks it is advisable to replenish the dissolved oxygen content. Storage tanks and pipes should be made of stainless steel or aluminum. Although Butyl Acrylate does not corrode carbon steel, there is a risk of contamination if corrosion does occur.
- Regulations for the storage of flammable liquids must be observed (explo- sion-proof electrical equipment, vented tanks with flame arresters etc.). Storage tanks, pumps and pipes must be earthed.
