Product overview
Colorless, transparent, oily liquid with a pungent odor.
It is not easily soluble in water, miscible with hot water, and easily soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether.
It is easy to polymerize.
If necessary, methanol or fatty alcohol polyethylene glycol ether type non-ionic surfactant can be added as a stabilizer.
Since the pure product is not easy to store, the product is often in the form of a 25% aqueous solution.
