Methyl Methacrylate (MMA)

Methyl methacrylate, whose chemical formula is C5H8O2 and chemical formula quantity is 100.12, is an organic compound, also known as MMA, or methyl ester for short. HS code for MMA is 2916140010. Methyl methacrylate is an important chemical raw material and the production of transparent plastic polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) monomer. Methyl methacrylate is flammable with a strong pungent smell and is moderately toxic. Long-term exposure to methyl methacrylate should be avoided.

Features of Chemical Methyl Methacrylate (MMA)

Methyl Methacrylate(MMA) is a colorless volatile liquid and has strong spicy, and flammable. Methyl methacrylate products are soluble in ethanol, ethyl ether, acetone, and other organic solvents, and slightly soluble in ethylene glycol and water. Flammable, stable, and easy to polymerize in the presence of light, heat, ionizing radiation, and catalysts. Methyl Methacrylate(MMA)  can explode when mixed with air. And Methyl Methacrylate(MMA) is flammable when exposed to open fire, high temperature, and oxidant. Combustion stimulates smoke, and chemical reaction with oxidants, and acids, not long storage, to prevent polymerization.
