Description

Isodecyl Acrylate is a high-purity, monofunctional acrylic ester monomer. It is a key building block in the synthesis of polymers, valued for its ability to impart low-temperature flexibility, hydrophobicity, and excellent weatherability to final products. This chemical is essential for formulators and manufacturers in the coatings, adhesives, and specialty polymer industries seeking to enhance product performance.

Application

• UV-Curable Coatings and Inks: A primary reactive diluent and cross-linking agent in formulations requiring fast cure, high gloss, and chemical resistance.
• Pressure-Sensitive Adhesives (PSAs): Used to modify acrylic copolymers, providing improved tack, peel adhesion, and low-temperature performance.
• Acrylic Polymer Emulsions: Serves as a comonomer to enhance the flexibility, water resistance, and durability of latex paints and industrial coatings.
• Thermoplastic Acrylic Resins: Incorporated to lower the glass transition temperature (Tg) and improve impact resistance in solvent-borne systems.
• Sealants and Caulks: Imparts permanent flexibility and adhesion to a variety of substrates, including plastics and metals.
• Textile and Leather Finishes: Used in polymers that provide durable, soft-hand finishes with excellent wash fastness.
• Photopolymer Printing Plates: A component in resin formulations for plates that require specific elastomeric properties.

Quality Control

Our Isodecyl Acrylate is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Every batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including gas chromatography (GC) for assay and purity, to ensure it meets precise specifications for monomer content and inhibitor levels. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting full test results are provided and available upon request to support your quality assurance protocols.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, well-ventilated area away from heat sources and incompatible materials. Recommended storage temperature is 15-25°C. This product is easily oxidized (store under inert atmosphere) and is light-sensitive (store away from light). Always check the inhibitor type and level before extended storage or processing.
