Acrylic Acid Supplier in Malaysia
- Also known as
- Propenoic Acid
- 2-Propenoic Acid
- Vinylformic Acid
Acrylic acid supplier for polymer, coatings, adhesives and chemical intermediate buyers in Malaysia. Also known as propenoic acid, 2-propenoic acid and vinylformic acid, it is an unsaturated carboxylic acid monomer identified by CAS 79-10-7 and formula C3H4O2. Buyers typically specify grade, assay and inhibitor condition against the process requirement.
Commercial enquiries cover glacial acrylic acid, inhibited or stabilised monomer, and technical or polymer-grade industrial liquid. Aqueous concentration is quoted only when the buyer states a solution strength. These options remain acrylic acid monomer, not downstream polymers, salts or acrylic esters.
Manufacturers use acrylic acid for acrylic ester production, superabsorbent polymers, coatings binders, industrial adhesives, water-treatment polymers, detergent or dispersant polymers and selected textile or leather finishing chemicals. Downstream polyacrylic acid, methacrylic acid and vinyl acetate monomer stay on separate product pages.
Send the required grade or concentration, specification, quantity and delivery location with your enquiry. Availability, packing, documentation and delivery timing are confirmed with the quotation.

Acrylic Acid applications
Safety and handling
- Classification
- corrosive, flammable
Acrylic acid is a polymerisable, corrosive liquid normally handled with inhibitor. Keep containers closed in a cool, well-ventilated place away from heat, ignition sources and incompatible materials. Follow the storage, shelf life and safety information for the quoted grade.
Common questions about acrylic acid
Are acrylic acid, propenoic acid and 2-propenoic acid the same product?
Yes. Acrylic acid is the common trade name; propenoic acid and 2-propenoic acid are systematic names for the same monomer, also called vinylformic acid. CAS 79-10-7 identifies this acid. State grade, assay and inhibitor needs in the enquiry.
What is glacial acrylic acid?
Glacial acrylic acid is the high-purity, concentrated liquid monomer form rather than a dilute aqueous solution. Buyers who specify glacial material usually need high assay acrylic acid for ester or polymer manufacture. Send the target assay with the enquiry.
Why is acrylic acid often supplied inhibited or stabilised?
Commercial acrylic acid is commonly inhibited to help control unwanted polymerisation during storage and handling. The inhibitor system and condition should match the buyer's process and are confirmed for the quoted grade.
Is acrylic acid the same as polyacrylic acid, acrylic resin or methacrylic acid?
No. Acrylic acid is the unsaturated monomer. Polyacrylic acid, sodium polyacrylate, acrylic resins, acrylamide polymers and methacrylic acid are separate products and need their own specifications and enquiries.
Which applications use acrylic acid monomer?
Acrylic acid is used to make acrylic esters, superabsorbent polymers, coatings binders, industrial adhesives, water-treatment polymers, detergent or dispersant polymers and selected textile or leather finishing chemicals. Describe the intended use so the quoted grade can be matched more closely.
What details are needed for an acrylic acid price enquiry?
Provide the grade or concentration, any inhibitor preference, specification, quantity, delivery location and preferred pack format if known. Mention documentation or timing needs so the quotation can address the complete requirement.
