Ethyl methacrylate is the organic compound with the formula C2H5O2CC(CH3)=CH2. A colorless liquid, it is a common monomer for the preparation of acrylate polymers.[1] It is typically polymerized under free-radical conditions.[2]

Environmental issues and health hazards

The acute toxicity of the related butyl methacrylate is the LD50 is 20 g/kg (oral, rat). Acrylate esters irritant the eyes and can cause blindness.[1]
