Application of IBOMA in high solid compositions coating of acrylic resin:

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 effectively 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.

IBOMA is one kind of outstanding monomer which extremely unifies hardness and flexibility. As for its molecular structure and characteristic, copolymer has high gloss, good gloss distinctness of image, mar resistance, water and solvents resistance and weather resistance. its hydroscopic property is obviously lower than MMA also. In addition, acrylic resin including IBOMA has good compatibility with polyester, alkyd resin, as well as many resins.

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.

IBO(M)A 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.

IBO(M)A is one kind colorless or faint yellow transparent liquid. It is hardly dissolvent in water. It has low poison. When the product is opened and exposed for a long time, it has the eye and skin stimulated. Its vapor and droplet have nose or throat stimulated. People should wear the labor insurance thing in operation, and avoid to contact material directly.
