Which expert has information on the production process of methyl methacrylate MMA? The isobutylene oxidation method is the best; it is currently considered the most advanced approach. I would like to learn * a bit; just a general understanding will be enough. Thank you very much! At the same time, experienced experts are welcome to discuss MMA techniques here! I’m learning *learning*.

The general process involves the cracking of MTBE/tert-butanol to produce isobutylene, which is then oxidized in two steps to yield methacrylic acid, and from this methacrylic acid methyl ester is finally produced. The market is estimated to be saturated already. In today’s environment, the market plays an increasingly important role when pursuing a project; it’s not too late to first conduct a thorough market analysis before focusing on the technical aspects

I checked the process for oxidizing propylene to acrylic acid; it’s more or less the same. In Japan, the process can use isobutylene as a feedstock or tert-butanol, while I’m not entirely sure about the processes used by Wanhua and Huayi, but they’re probably similar

I work in the equipment industry; understanding the manufacturing processes helps me supply the right equipment. I’m not involved in project work. Thank you very much for providing such useful information – thanks!
