[0002] A synthesis method of a commercial multi-functionality light-curable acrylate is as follows: one is to generate polydipentaerythritol hexaacrylate through intermolecular dehydration reaction of pentaerythritol triacrylate, the obtained six-functionality light-curable acrylate only contains six carbon-carbon double bonds in the molecular structure, and the molecular weight is small, so the added amount of the light-curable acrylate in the UV curing product accounts for a large proportion; the other is to generate nine-functionality light-curable acrylate through the following method: 2,2-dimethylol propionic acid is reacted with ethylene oxide or propylene oxide to obtain a trihydroxy polyether ester, the trihydroxy polyether ester is reacted with diisocyanate and pentaerythritol triacrylate or bishydroxymethyl propane triacrylate to obtain a nine-functionality polyurethane acrylate.
