1. Introduction Thermoplastic acrylic resins are extensively applied in coatings, adhesives, and composites due to their superior chemical stability, processability, and electrical insulation. their limited mechanical strength and thermal resistance restrict their use in harsh environments. Consequently, modifying these resins to enhance their comprehensive performance has become a research focus.

2. Overview of Modification Methods 2.1 Copolymerization Modification Introducing other monomers or polymer segments into the acrylic resin backbone via copolymerization effectively improves mechanical strength and thermal resistance. Common modifiers include epoxy resins, polyurethanes, and polyesters. For example, incorporating epoxy resin into acrylic resins significantly increases hardness and temperature resistance.

2.2 Nanofiller Modification Nanoparticles with high specific surface areas, such as silica, carbon nanotubes, and graphene, are dispersed in thermoplastic acrylic resins to enhance mechanical and thermal properties. Studies show that optimal nanofiller loadings markedly improve strength and heat resistance.

2.3 Crosslinking Modification Crosslinking agents induce network structures in thermoplastic acrylic resins, boosting mechanical strength and thermal stability. Chemical crosslinking uses peroxides or anhydrides, while physical crosslinking employs radiation or UV light.

2.4 Bio-Based Modification Bio-based materials, such as starch or cellulose, partially replace petroleum-based resources, reducing environmental impact and costs. Copolymerizing or composite-forming with natural polymers yields biodegradable and eco-friendly thermoplastic acrylic resins.

3. Application Status and Prospects Copolymerization, nanofiller reinforcement, crosslinking, and bio-based modifications are primary strategies. Nanofiller modification stands out for its significant reinforcement effects and broad potential. Advances in nanotechnology, particularly controlled synthesis and functionalized nanoparticles, will further enhance modification capabilities.

Modifying thermoplastic acrylic resins is a multidisciplinary endeavor involving chemistry, physics, and materials science. Research on copolymerization, nanofillers, crosslinking, and bio-based methods has substantially improved resin performance, addressing industrial demands. Future advancements in material technologies will drive deeper research and expand application scope.
