Dipropylene glycol diacrylate
What is Dipropylene glycol diacrylate?
Dipropylene glycol diacrylate (DPGDA, CAS 57472-68-1) is a bifunctional acrylate monomer used as a reactive diluent and crosslinker in UV- and EB-curable systems.
Where is Dipropylene glycol diacrylate used?
- UV-curable inks and coatings for printing and packaging: lowers viscosity to press-ready levels without sacrificing cure speed or crosslink density
- Radiation-curable wood and industrial coatings: balances flexibility and hardness in the cured film
- Adhesives and sealants: crosslinking co-monomer that improves cohesive strength and chemical resistance
- Acrylate oligomer synthesis and photopolymer systems: building block
- It reduces formulation viscosity while contributing to network formation during cure.
Commercial specifications
- Drum and IBC quantities
- Low-inhibitor or high-purity variants for demanding photopolymer applications
