This book offers a thoroughly practical overview of acrylic polymer chemistry and its commercial and industrial applications. The first book on the subject geared to chemists, The Chemistry and Industrial Use of Acrylics covers the properties of acrylic monomers and polymers, monomer synthesis, different polymerization techniques, as well as a wide variety of end-use applications, including coatings, adhesives, textiles and nonwovens, leather chemicals, electronic materials, and more. The future direction of acrylics in terms of polymer recycling, sustainability, and bio-based acrylics is also examined.
