Isobornyl Acrylate (IBOA) Supplier in Malaysia
- Also known as
- IBOA
- Isobornyl 2-Propenoate
Isobornyl acrylate, commonly abbreviated IBOA, is a bulky monofunctional acrylate monomer for UV-curable coatings, inks, adhesives and photopolymer systems. Its rigid bicyclic structure is selected when a formulation needs a balance of hardness, hydrophobicity, adhesion and dimensional performance.
The page covers UV-curable monomer, coating and ink, 3D-printing resin and high-purity grades. Buyers should identify the exposure source, resin backbone, target viscosity, inhibitor system, cure speed, shrinkage and final film properties before choosing a grade.
Isobornyl acrylate is not isobornyl methacrylate, 2-ethylhexyl acrylate or a generic acrylic resin. Those materials differ in reactivity, backbone contribution and finished-polymer behaviour, so they should be ordered by their exact chemical name.
Send the formulation route, cure method, required purity and inhibitor details, quantity and delivery location with your enquiry. Availability, packing, storage documentation and quotation-stage specifications are confirmed for the selected isobornyl acrylate grade.

Common questions about isobornyl acrylate
What is isobornyl acrylate used for?
IBOA is used in UV-curable coatings, inks, adhesives, photopolymer and 3D-printing resin systems requiring a rigid hydrophobic acrylate component.
Is IBOA the same as isobornyl methacrylate?
No. IBOA is an acrylate monomer and isobornyl methacrylate is a separate methacrylate. Their cure rate and polymer properties should not be assumed interchangeable.
Which information is needed for a UV-curable grade?
Provide the lamp or exposure system, resin composition, target viscosity, cure speed, film thickness, shrinkage limit, inhibitor requirement and final performance targets.
Can isobornyl acrylate be used in 3D-printing resins?
It may be considered in qualified photopolymer systems. The printer wavelength, exposure dose, conversion, viscosity, dimensional accuracy and post-cure process should be stated.
How do I request a quotation for IBOA?
Send the application, purity and inhibitor requirement, estimated quantity, packing preference, documentation needs and delivery point for the quoted monomer.
