About Polyacrylic acid

Polyacrylic acid is a polymer (Synthesis grade) carrying the CAS registry number 9003-01-4. The material is described by the formula (C3H4O2)n. Alternative names: PAA and PAAc.

In its supplied form it is a liquid clear colourless to pale yellow liquid. Literature values give a density of 1.18-1.23 gm/cc. Store sealed in a dry, well-ventilated location away from incompatible materials. Good laboratory practice and suitable PPE are recommended during handling.

It is commonly used for polymer research, coatings and films, formulation development and pharmaceutical synthesis. Typical end-use sectors are polymers and plastics, paints and coatings and cosmetics and personal care.

Standard pack sizes are 100 mL, 500 mL and 25 kg, and every batch ships with a Certificate of Analysis (COA) and we export worldwide. A Safety Data Sheet (SDS) and technical specifications are available on request.
