Description

3-Isobornylcyclohexyl Acrylate is a specialized monofunctional acrylate monomer, valued for its unique combination of a bulky, hydrophobic isobornyl group and a reactive acrylate double bond. This structure is critical for imparting enhanced adhesion, low shrinkage, and excellent chemical resistance in formulated polymer systems. It is primarily sought by formulators in the UV-curable coatings, inks, adhesives, and advanced resin sectors who require high-performance materials.

Application

• UV-Curable Coatings & Inks: A key monomer for formulating wood, plastic, and metal coatings that require fast curing, high crosslink density, and superior surface hardness.
• Adhesives & Sealants: Used to enhance the flexibility, adhesion, and durability of radiation-curable adhesive formulations.
• Photopolymer Resins: Serves as a reactive diluent and performance modifier in resins for 3D printing (SLA/DLP) and photoresists.
• Fiber Optic Coatings: Contributes to the protective primary and secondary coatings due to its low moisture absorption and good mechanical properties.
• Dental & Medical Composites: Employed in biocompatible, light-curable composites where controlled polymerization and material stability are essential.
• Electronic Encapsulants: Used in formulations designed to protect sensitive electronic components, offering good insulation and environmental resistance.

Quality Control

Our 3-Isobornylcyclohexyl Acrylate is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Every batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including assay, purity profiling, and impurity screening, to ensure it meets precise customer specifications. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all test results is provided with each shipment to guarantee traceability and consistent performance in your formulations.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, well-ventilated area at 15-25°C. Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame. Due to its highly volatile nature, ensure containers are kept tightly sealed when not in use to prevent evaporation and maintain product integrity.
