Methacrylic Anhydride (MAAH, CAS No. 760-93-0) is a high-purity organic anhydride used as a key reactive intermediate in polymer synthesis and fine chemical manufacturing. Its anhydride functional group offers high reactivity toward alcohols and amines, enabling efficient esterification and acylation reactions in a wide range of industrial applications.
Supplied in solid white briquette form with a guaranteed purity of 99.5% minimum, this product features excellent physicochemical stability and consistent batch quality. With a solidifying point of not less than 52.5 °C and low molten color (APHA ≤25), Methacrylic Anhydride is suitable for processes requiring strict control of color, metal impurities, and inorganic residues. The extremely low ash and iron contents further support its use in high-performance and color-sensitive formulations.
Methacrylic Anhydride is widely used in the production of methacrylate polymers, specialty resins, coatings, adhesives, and pharmaceutical or fine chemical intermediates. It can be applied independently or as part of tailored synthesis routes to achieve desired polymer structures, functional performance, and end-use properties. The product is manufactured under controlled conditions to ensure reliability in industrial-scale processing.
