Isobornyl Acrylate (IBOA)
Isobornyl acrylate (IBOA) is a kind of acrylic ester monomer with a bridged-ring structure. It has excellent adhesion properties, good chemical resistance, and low shrinkage, making it a popular choice for use in UV-curable coatings on various substrates such as plastics, metals, and wood. IBOA is applied as an important monomer product in the printing ink formulation, solvent-based high-solid content transparent coatings, and curing coatings as a thickening agent, base material, reactive diluent, and curing agent.
IBOA can also be used as a viscosity improver in dental resin, reducing the polymerization shrinkage of resin-based dental restorative materials. When used in bone cement, it can reduce adverse biological effects during implant bonding processes.
