| | ETHYL 2-CYANOACRYLATE Usage And Synthesis |
| Description | Ethyl cyanoacrylate is contained in instant glues for
metal, glass, rubber, plastics, textiles, tissues and nails.
It polymerizes almost instantaneously in air at room
temperature and bonds immediately and strongly to
surface keratin. Beauticians are exposed to contact
dermatitis from nail glues. | | Chemical Properties | Clear Colourless Liquid | | Uses | A cosmetic composition | | Uses | ECA can be used as a tissue adhesive for potential applications in cardiovascular and pulmonary surgeries. It can also be mixed with hydrophobic silica nanoparticles for the designing of cotton fabrics for medical applications. | | Uses | Ethyl cyanoacrylate is an acrylate compound used in instant glues to mend broken nails and to adhere glue-impregnated silk or linen to the nail plate,
which is then filed to shape the nail; in medicine to glue tissues and skin cracks; to attach hair and to glue shoes, plastics, and many other materials. | | General Description | Ethyl 2-cyanoacrylate (ECA) is a monomeric adhesive that can be used on a variety of materials such as metals, plastics, rubber, ceramics, and wood. It forms a one part adhesive system that can also be used as a primer. | | Hazard | An inhalation hazard. | | Flammability and Explosibility | Notclassified | | Safety Profile | An inhalation hazard.
When heated to decomposition it emits
toxic vapors of NOx. |
