Used primarily as a reactive monomer in the synthesis of specialty polymers and copolymers, particularly in pressure-sensitive adhesives and coatings. Its acrylate functionality enables free-radical polymerization, while the methoxybutyl group contributes flexibility and influences solubility characteristics. Commonly employed in solvent-based and radiation-curable systems where low viscosity and good adhesion to various substrates are required. Also finds use in modifying the glass transition temperature (Tg) of polymer blends, improving impact resistance and film formation in acrylic resins.
