It is an acrylic monomer. It may be prepared either by reacting acetylene with carbon monoxide and ethyl alcohol in the presence of nickel carbonyl and hydrogen chloride as catalysts, or by catalyzed esterification of acrylic acid with alcohol. It polymerizes readily under the influence of heat, light or other initiators.
Application
Used in the manufacture of a variety of polymers and copolymers. It is also used as an ingredient in latex paints., binders , caulks, lubricating oils, polishes, adhesives, fibers, plastics and other products.

In this study, Acid Soluble Collagen-g-P(methyl methacrylate-co-ethyl acrylate) (CME) was synthesized to take advantage of the flexibility of the resulted branched polymer chains and the high density of their chain entanglement. The coaxial electrospinning technique was applied to study the
A collagen-based copolymer, ASC-g-Poly(methyl methacrylate-co-Ethyl Acrylate), was synthesized in the presence of Graphene Oxide (GO) via an in-situ polymerization. The presence of GO that increased the accessible surface area for initiated collagen chains allowed for an accelerated polymerization with highly
The development of polymeric materials with cell adhesion abilities requires an understanding of cell-surface interactions which vary with cell type. To investigate the correlation between cell attachment and the nature of the polymer, a series of random and block copolymers
Palladium-catalyzed C-H functionalization using guanidine as the directing group was achieved under mild reaction conditions. Various guanidine derivatives were produced in moderate to good yields by using simple unactivated arenes or ethyl acrylate as the source of arylation or olefination

Singlet molecular oxygen O(2)((1)Δ(g)) is a potent oxidant that can react with different biomolecules, including DNA, lipids and proteins. Many polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons have been studied as O(2)((1)Δ(g)) chemical traps. Nevertheless, a suitable modification in the polycyclic aromatic ring must
