Poly(2-ethoxyethyl acrylate)
polymerPoly(2-ethoxyethyl acrylate) is a synthetic acrylic polymer with an ether-substituted side chain that imparts flexibility and polarity to the backbone structure. This material finds use in coatings, adhesives, and elastomeric applications where its low glass transition temperature enables rubber-like behavior at room temperature. The ethoxyethyl pendant group enhances solubility in organic solvents and provides water resistance, making it valuable in formulations where a balance between flexibility and chemical resistance is required; it competes with other soft acrylics in latex-free and high-performance adhesive systems.

RoHS, REACH, and Prop 65 statuses are validated against official substance lists (ECHA SVHC Candidate List, OEHHA Prop 65, RoHS Annex II). Other regulations are estimated from composition and material classification. All screening is a starting point for due diligence — always verify with your supplier before making compliance decisions.
