ACRYLIC MONOMERS Basic
raw materials a n d productic
Over 25 years asjo, Rohm «Sc Haas pioneered the commercial production of acrylates and methacrylates, and since then has led in acrylic research and process development. Xo increase the availability of acrylics and to lower their cost, we developed economical processes for the syntheses of the monomers and made multi-million dollar investments in plant facilities in Houston, Texas to derive from natural gas and air many of the necessary intermediates—carbon monoxide, ammonia, hydrogen cyanide, acetylene, and methanol. How does this benefit you? O u r long experience can help you in the transportation, storage, and handling of these monomers. Also, prices have been dropped — in the case of ethyl acrylate, from 49c to 34c per pound in the last 5 years. Furthermore, Rohm & Haas offers the widest selec-

tion of commercially available acrylic monomers, plus many acrylic monomers available in development quantities. You can polymerize these monomers, copolymerize them with a lars^e n u m b e r of other monomers, or use them as intermediates in reactions other than polymerization.
