Acryloyl Chloride CAS 814-68-6

High-Purity Acryloyl Chloride CAS 814-68-6 from Aure Chemical: Stable Supply & Compliance

Acryloyl chloride is a highly reactive, volatile liquid that combines the reactivity of an acid chloride with a polymerizable vinyl group. It readily undergoes acylation reactions with alcohols, amines, and other nucleophiles while also participating in radical polymerization, making it valuable for creating functionalized polymers and specialty chemicals. Due to its sensitivity to moisture and tendency to polymerize, it is typically stabilized and handled under controlled conditions.

The compound plays an important role in modern materials science, enabling the design of polymers with tailored properties for coatings, adhesives, and biomedical devices. Aure Chemical ensures consistent quality to support reliable performance in demanding polymerization processes. Proper storage away from heat, light, and moisture is essential to maintain product stability and safety.
