Reaction Steps

U.S. Pat. No. 4,280,010 discloses a process for making butyl acrylate in which the reaction overhead is passed to a reactor column with the distillate being a butyl acrylate, butanol and water azeotrope. A reflux is used in the reactor column. The remainder of the distillate is sent to a dehydration column and the organic product is further distilled to provide a butanol—butyl acrylate azeotrope being recycled to the reactor and butyl acrylate stream being obtained at the base of the column.
