Poly [2-(dimethylamino) ethyl methacrylate]

CAS:25154-86-3

Poly[2-(dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate] is a water-soluble cationic polymer synthesized via free-radical polymerization of 2-(dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate (DMAEMA) monomer.

Product Form

Appearance: White to pale yellow solid powder; transparent viscous liquid when dissolved in organic solvents

Stability Performance

Stable under normal temperature and dry conditions, resistant to weak acids. Ester bonds are prone to hydrolysis and degradation in strong alkaline or strong oxidizing environments.
Thermal decomposition occurs at temperatures above 200°C, releasing irritating fumes of DMAEMA monomer.
It exhibits high water absorption and swelling in acidic media, while dehydrating and shrinking under alkaline conditions.

Storage Requirements

Solid powder: Store hermetically at 2–8°C, protected from light, moisture and air at all times.
Aqueous solution: Prepare immediately before use, seal under inert gas and refrigerate; long-term storage is prohibited to prevent oxidative deterioration.
