n-Butyl methacrylate is used as a building block of polymer based products that are used in paints and coatings, resins, adhesives, toners and inks, oil additives for dental and medical products. Its polymer polybutyl methacrylate (PBMA) with the sodium salt of partially carboxymethylated guar gum (Na-PCMGG, DS = 0.497) is synthesized using ceric ammonium nitrate as a redox initiator.

This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.

Applications
