Isobornyl acrylate
What is Isobornyl acrylate?
Isobornyl acrylate (CAS 5888-33-5), commonly abbreviated as IBOA, is a reactive monomer used in UV-curable and radiation-curable polymer systems.
Where is Isobornyl acrylate used?
- UV-curable coatings, inks and adhesives: diluent monomer that reduces viscosity in resin formulations
- Cured films: contributes hardness, chemical resistance and low shrinkage
- Printing and packaging: energy-curable inkjet and flexographic ink formulations
- Nail gel systems and UV-curable film-forming products
- Optical adhesives and lens coatings
- It supports precision bonding in the electronics and optics industries through compatibility with acrylate oligomers.
Commercial specifications
- High purity levels, typically 98% or higher
- Inhibitor packages suited for storage and handling in monomer supply chains
- Drum and IBC quantities with bulk availability from major distributors
