The alkylmethacrylates were synthesized by reaction of methacrylic acid with different alcohols. Esterification reaction conversion was investigated by selection suitable solvent. Poly 2-ethylhexyl acrylate was prepared by solution polymerization in toluene solvent. The effect of temperature and solvent content on molecular weight was studied by gel permission chromatography
