Popis: UV curable PSA of maleinated acrylated epoxidised palm oil (MAEPO) from palm oil via UV LED lamp has been introduced with the existence of Chivacure 300 as photoinitiator. By involving the isobornyl methacrylate (ISBMA) as a monomer in the PSA formulation, the degree of conversion recorded low percentage of conversion, which was below 50 % although the loading of photoinitiator has been raised to 5 parts per hundred (phr). The ISBMA has affected to the slow curing speed on the maleinated PSA and restricted the conversion of C=C to more than 50 % even though the curing time and photoinitiator loading has been increased up to 300 min and 5 phr. It is expected that the double bonds are still present in the synthesised of PSA which indicated that most molecules were bonded at one end of another in methacrylate group. In the present study, real-time FTIR-ATR spectroscopy was used to follow the crosslinking process of the adhesive and the adhesive properties of the cured coatings.
