Acrylic resin is a resin made by copolymerization of acrylate, methacrylate and other olefinic monomers. By selecting different resin structures, formulas, production processes and solvents, different types, properties and applications of acrylic resin can be synthesized, Acrylic resin can be divided into thermoplastic acrylic resin and thermosetting acrylic resin according to the difference of structure and film forming mechanism. The main absorption peak of acrylic resin synthesized by copolymerization of acrylate and methacrylate monomer is outside the solar spectrum range, so the acrylic resin paint prepared has excellent light resistance and outdoor aging performance.

Thermoplasticity

Thermoplastic acrylic resin will not be further crosslinked during the film forming process, so its relative molecular weight is large, it has good light and color retention, water resistance and chemical resistance, fast drying, convenient construction, easy recoating and rework, and good whiteness and positioning of aluminum powder when preparing aluminum paint. Thermoplastic acrylic resin is widely used in automobile, electrical appliance, machinery, architecture and other fields.

Thermosetting acrylic resin means that it has a certain functional group in its structure, and forms a network structure by reacting with the functional groups in the amino resin, epoxy resin, polyurethane, etc. when making paint. Thermosetting resins generally have low relative molecular weight. Thermosetting acrylic paint has excellent fullness, gloss, hardness, solvent resistance, weather resistance, and no discoloration and yellowing when baking at high temperature.
