Acrylic acid acts as a precursor in the production of 3-hydroxypropionic acid. It is used in the preparation of water-absorbent resins. It reacts with alcohols to prepare the corresponding esters. Its esters are used as raw materials for synthetic resins, rubbers, coating adhesives, water-based paints, floor polishes and adhesives. It is also used to prepare forming homopolymers or copolymers by reacting with other monomers like acrylamides, acrylonitrile, vinyl, styrene, and butadiene.
