Dec 29, 2025 Leave a message

Vinyl acetate, or Vinyl acetate monomer VAM, CAS 108-05-4, is an essential chemical building block used in a variety of industrial processes as well as consumer products. VAM, Vinyl Acetate Monomer, is an organic compound ( CH3CO2CHCH2 ), which is liquid at a standard temperature, colorless and with a pungent and typical odor.

 

What is the raw material for VAM Vinyl Acetate Monomer?

Vinyl acetate monomer (VAM) is a compound made from acetic acid and ethylene and vinyl acetate resin is made by connecting many varieties of acetic acids. 

 

The primary raw materials (feedstocks) for producing VAM via the modern ethylene process are:

  • Ethylene (C₂H₄): A fundamental petrochemical derived from the steam cracking of naphtha or natural gas liquids (ethane, propane).
  • Acetic Acid (CH₃COOH): Produced mainly via the carbonylation of methanol (the Monsanto/Cativa process).
  • Oxygen (O₂): Typically supplied as high-purity gas from air separation units.
