Polyacrylate Basics
Acrylates are a family of polymers, which are a type of vinyl polymer . Acrylates are of course made from acrylate monomers, and it's about time we explained what those are. Acrylate monomers are usually esters which contain vinyl groups, that is, two carbon atoms double-bonded to each other, directly attached to the carbonyl carbon of the ester group. Some polymers (especially copolymers) contain the free acid, acrylic acid as shown below. https://pslc.ws/macrog/acrylate.htm
