About this product

We stock glacial acrylic acid (prop-2-enoic acid, CAS 79-10-7), an MEHQ-inhibited acrylate monomer for downstream polymer synthesis. Ours is sourced from BPCL's Kochi Refinery and tests 99.5% min purity against the manufacturer's Certificate of Analysis. We dispatch in drums from our Redhills, Chennai warehouse across South India.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the CAS number and chemical name of acrylic acid?

Acrylic acid carries CAS number 79-10-7. Its systematic name is prop-2-enoic acid (propenoic acid), and the glacial grade is commonly abbreviated GAA.

What is the HSN code for acrylic acid?

Acrylic acid falls under HSN code 2916 11 00. We reference this code on our technical documentation for the product.

What is the specification of glacial acrylic acid?

Our glacial acrylic acid tests 99.5% min purity as a colourless clear liquid, with Colour 20 APHA max, water 0.1% max, acrylic acid dimer 0.15% max and 180–220 ppmw MEHQ inhibitor. All values derive from the manufacturer's Certificate of Analysis, issued by BPCL's BIS-accredited Quality Control Laboratory.

Which grade of acrylic acid do you supply, and why is it MEHQ-inhibited?

We supply one grade: glacial acrylic acid, inhibited with 180–220 ppmw MEHQ. The inhibitor, kept intact alongside an air headspace, prevents hazardous polymerisation of the acrylate monomer during storage and transit.

At what temperature should acrylic acid be stored?

Store it cool, between 15 and 25 °C. Keep the MEHQ inhibitor and air headspace intact, and keep drums away from heat, oxidisers and freezing — each can trigger hazardous polymerisation. The product is corrosive and causes severe skin and eye burns, so handle accordingly.

Can I buy acrylic acid in drums in Chennai?

Yes. We supply glacial acrylic acid in drums from our Redhills, Chennai warehouse, sourced from BPCL's Kochi Refinery, with dispatch across South India. Order sizes depend on packaging and current stock — call or WhatsApp +91 86087 80096 for a quote; TDS and MSDS PDFs are available on this page.
