  • Applications

    Isophoryl acrylate (CAS 86178-38-3) is a bulky, monofunctional acrylate monomer commonly used as a reactive diluent in UV-curable coatings, inks, and sealants to lower viscosity and tailor cure speed and film flexibility. It acts as a comonomer in radical polymerizations to impart improved flexibility and chemical resistance in coatings and plastics. It is also used as an intermediate for synthesizing specialty polymers and resins with tailored properties. In electronics and optics, it is employed in UV-curable encapsulants and protective coatings for components, and in adhesives and laminating resins for electronic assemblies.
