Methacrylic acid/ethylacrylate

Vinyl monomers are the basis of a vast range of industrial polymeric materials, and some examples are shown in Figure 2.16. Acrylamide is just one of a range of acrylic monomers which includes acrylic acid, methacrylic acid, ethylacrylate, etc., which are used to form a very wide range of synthetic polymers (Rodriguez, 1983, p. 417). 

The preparation by dispersion polymerization of the microsphere sample employed in this study was previously described [8]. The microsphere sample utilized in this study has a monomodal diameter distribution with mean diameter value d= 3.09 pm and standard deviation dsdev= 0-74 pm. The microsphere surface is covered by a poly(methacrylic acid-co-ethylacrylate) whose percent by weight is 1.1... 

The endopolygalacturonase obtained from a Kluyveromyces marxianus culture broth was purified through the addition of specifically designed core-shell microspheres consisting of an inner polystyrene core and an outer shell constituted by a poly(methacrylic acid-co-ethylacrylate) statistical copolymer. These microspheres were previously found very effective in purifying the pectinlyase within a commercial pectinase sample [15].

Polyamides, PA, can be impact-modified by addition of acrylic multipolymers, e.g., methyl methacrylate-co-methacrylic acid-co-ethylacrylate [Halliwell, 1965, 1966] ethylene-2-hydroxy ethyl methacrylate-methyl methacrylate [Hepworth et... 

More recently, a family of acid responsive polymers based on a-alkyl acrylic acids such as methacrylic acid (MAA), ethylacrylic acid (EAA), propylacrylic acid, and butylacrylic acid (BAA) and their copolymers with alkyl acrylates or methacrylates have been explored for their ability to disrupt membranes and their potential as endosomal disruption polymers. The key feature of these poly(a-alkyl acrylic acids) is that they switch from a hydrophilic to a hydrophobic character as they become protonated (pH sensitive), and the switch to a hydrophobic character has been shown to disrupt membranes [68, 69]. The polymer, PPAA, has been shown to be 15 times more effective than PEAA at membrane disruption and to have maximum hemolytic activity at pH < 6, which is in the range of endosomal pH [68, 285]. PPAA has been successfully been used to enhance lipolyplex-mediated gene transfer [286] in vitro and wound healing by altering extracellular matrix organization and greater vascularization in vivo [286]. 

Modification of natural protein through grafting have become in a widely used path and some works have carry out studies with acrylic monomers as ethylacrylate, acrylic acid, methacrylic acid and methyl methacrylate (Mostafa, 1995 Athawale and Rathi, 1997 Jia and Yong, 2006 Zampano, et al 2009), which carried out graft of natural fibers and proteins. However, just few of works report grafting of hydroxyethyl methacrylate onto naturals fibers (Joshi and Sinha, 2006) (Martinez et al., 2003, 2005).

PyGC is also an effective method for identifying and differentiating the organic binder of paint. In some cases, paint additives may readily be detected and identified. Automotive paint binder types can be identified on mg-sized samples of topcoat. Challinor [567] has evidenced various phthalates (DBP, BBP, BCP) in a methyl methacrylate (MMA)-butyl methacrylate (BMA) copolymer, BBP in a MMA-BMA-MA (methacrylic acid) terpolymer, DBP and BCP in MMA-MA copolymer and BBP in MMA-EA (ethylacrylate) copolymer. Paint additives may also be identified in architectural paints. Dimethyl orthophthalate (DMOP) was detected in an architectural alkyd enamel which had been subjected to simultaneous pyrolysis methylation (SPM) [635]. Industrial finishes on a beverage can also contain a variety of plasticisers (DMA, DMOP, DMIP), as also determined by SMP-GC [567]. 

Typical examples of pH-sensitive polymers with anionic groups as poly(carboxylic acids] are poly(acrylic acid] [PAA], poly(methacrylic acid], poly(2-ethylacrylic acid] and poly(2-propylacrylic acid] [18] (Fig. 20.4],... 

There are various speciality polyethylene copolymers developed from ethylene and acrylic acid, methylacrylate, butylacrylate, ethylacrylate, maleic anhydride, glycidyl methacrylate, acrylic esters, acrylic ester-maleic anhydride. .. 

The acrylic plastics use the term acryl such as polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), polyacrylic acid, polymethacrytic acid, poly-R acrylate, poly-R methacrylate, polymethylacrylate, polyethylmethacrylate, and cyanoacrylate plastics. PMMA is the major and most important homopolymer in the series of acrylics with a sufficient high glass transition temperature to form useful products. Repeat units of the other types are used. Ethylacrylate repeat units form the major component in acrylate rubbers. PMMAs have high optical clarity, excellent weatherability, very broad color range, and hardest surface of any untreated thermoplastic. Chemical, thermal and impact properties are good to fair. Acrylics will fail in a brittle manner, independent of the temperature. They will suffer crazing when loaded at stress about halfway to the failure level. This effect is enhanced by the presence of solvents. 

Eisenberg and coworkers have employed acid-base interactions to improve the miscibility of a number of polymer-polymer pairs. Miscible blends were prepared using acid-base interactions, e.g., with SPS (acid derivative) and poly (ethylacrylate-co-4-vinylpyrldine) (91), sulfonated polyisoprene and poly (styrene-co-4-vinylpyridine) (92), and using ion-dipole interactions, e.g., poly (styrene-co-llthium methacrylate) and poly (ethylene oxide) (93). Similarly, Weiss et al. (94) prepared miscible blends of SPS(acid) and amino-terminated poly (alkylene oxide). In addition to miscibility improvements, the interactions between two functionalized polymers offers the possibility for achieving unique molecular architecture with a polymer blend. Sen and Weiss describe the preparation of graft-copolymers by transition metal complexation of two functionalized polymers in another chapter.
