Dodecyl methacrylate is an organic compound that is used in a variety of applications, especially in the fields of polymer chemistry and materials science.

1. Dodecyl methacrylate CAS 142-90-5 is often used as a monomer in the synthesis of polymers and copolymers. It can be polymerized to produce materials with specific properties, such as enhanced hydrophobicity and flexibility.

2. Due to Dodecyl methacrylate long hydrophobic dodecyl chain, it can be used to formulate surfactants, which are compounds that reduce the surface tension between two substances (such as oil and water).

3. Dodecyl methacrylate CAS 142-90-5 can be used to formulate adhesives and sealants to improve their performance and durability.

4. Dodecyl methacrylate is used in the production of coatings, including paints and varnishes, and contributes to the hardness, gloss and water resistance of the final product.

5. In a research environment, dodecyl methacrylate CAS 142-90-5 can be used for studies involving polymerization processes and for the development of new materials with specific properties.

To safely and effectively store dodecyl methacrylate CAS 142-90-5.

1. Use airtight containers made of suitable materials, such as glass or high-density polyethylene. Make sure the container is clearly labeled with the name of the chemical and any relevant hazard information.

2. Store dodecyl methacrylate CAS 142-90-5 in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place away from direct sunlight, heat and moisture.

3. Maintain storage temperature within the recommended range, typically 15°C to 25°C (59°F to 77°F). Avoid exposure to extreme temperatures.

4. Please keep dodecyl methacrylate CAS 142-90-5 away from incompatible substances such as strong oxidants, acids and alkalis. It should also be stored separately from food and drinks.

5. Use secondary controls, such as spill trays, to control any potential spills or leaks.

6. Access to storage areas is restricted to trained personnel only. Ensure appropriate safety equipment (e.g. fire extinguishers and spill kits) is available.

7. Regularly inspect storage areas and containers for signs of leaks, damage or deterioration.
