Product Description

Royalchem supplies isobornyl acrylate (IBOA), CAS 5888-33-5, a monofunctional acrylate used as a reactive diluent in UV/EB coatings, inks, adhesives and selected resin systems.

Product Name	Isobornyl Acrylate (IBOA) CAS 5888-33-5 Synonym: acrylic acid isobornyl ester
Formula / Molecular Weight	C₁₃H₂₀O₂; 208.30 g/mol
Structure
Product Type	Monofunctional acrylate used as a reactive diluent in UV/EB coatings, inks, adhesives and selected resin systems.
Reference Grade: RAE-100	Appearance: colorless to light-yellow liquid Assay (GC): >99.2% Color (Pt-Co/APHA): <20 Specific gravity (20/4°C): 0.990–0.994 Free acidity: <0.05% Water: <0.02% Camphene (GC): <0.05% DL-Isoborneol (GC): <0.80% High-boiling residue (GC): <1.00% Methanol solubility (5:45): clear MEHQ: 90–110 ppm Reference limits for the documented RAE-100 grade. Confirm the current grade and order specification. Free acidity is reported as percent; it is not an acid-value limit in mg KOH/g.
Applications	UV/EB coating and ink formulations using reactive diluents. Adhesive and sealant formulations. Selected photopolymer and 3D-printing resin formulations, subject to cure and finished-part testing. Evaluate viscosity, cure response, hardness, adhesion and shrinkage in the complete formulation. Industrial monomer specifications do not establish medical or dental end-use suitability.
Packing & Storage	Drum, IBC or bulk packaging may be discussed with the quotation. Follow the supplied SDS and label for temperature, light protection, inhibitor conditions and storage atmosphere. Confirm the required atmosphere before using nitrogen blanketing.

FAQ

What is the difference between IBOA and IBOMA?	IBOA is an acrylate; IBOMA is a methacrylate. They are different monomers. Compare curing behavior, viscosity and finished material properties in your formulation before selecting or substituting either.
Which specifications should I include in an inquiry?	Include assay, color, water, acidity with its reporting unit, and inhibitor type and level. Specify any additional impurities relevant to your resin or curing process.
Can IBOA replace a commercial reference grade?	A reference trade name alone is insufficient. Share the specification and application requirements, then compare the analytical profile and validate a sample in your formulation.
How should IBOA be handled and stored?	Follow the supplied SDS and label, including temperature and inhibitor requirements. Maintain the storage atmosphere specified for the supplied grade; confirm it before using nitrogen blanketing.
