Isobornyl methacrylate

In the situation of keeping glass transition temperature, molecular weight, and functional group number invariable, when methacrylic cyclic ester monomer was introduced to acrylic resin, it may effectivly reduce the viscosity of copolymer solution. IBOMA is the most obvious to reduce the viscosity of copolymer solution among all kinds of methacrylic cyclic ester monomers. When IBOMA was used in powder coating, it may improves agglomerate, appearance and gloss of coating, enhances stability and levelling property of powder coating, reduces melt viscosity of powder coating. IBOMA is suitable to making thermoplastic acrylic resin of high glass transition temperature, its product has high hardness, good flexibility, adhesion, alcohol resistance, heat resistance, humidity resistance and weather resistance, is suitable to making soft plastic film coating such as PET, PE, PP and so on, as well as decoration protection coating of PE, PP, PC and so on engineering plastics. The optical fiber coating including IBOMA has high hardness and stretch coefficient, and good waterproof performance.More widespread uses wait for various experts to develop and apply.
