EBECRYL® 109 is characterized by:

• Low viscosity
• Light colour

UV/EB cured products based on EBECRYL® 109 are characterized by the following performance properties: ·

• Chemical resistance
• Thermal resistance

The actual properties of UV/EB cured products also depend on the selection of the other formulation components, such as reactive diluent(s), additives and photo initiators.

Formulated UV/EB curable products containing EBECRYL® 109 may be applied by lithographic, screen, gravure, direct or reverse roll, and curtain coating methods.

• Coatings where chemical and/or thermal resistance is required
• Solder and etch resists

The toxicological properties of this material have not been fully determined. Products of this type can be expected to be eye and skin irritant and have the potential to cause sensitization or other allergic responses. Appropriate precautions should be taken to avoid eye and skin contact and to avoid inhalation of the aerosols or vapours.

• Care should be taken not to expose radiation curable products to temperatures exceeding 40°C for prolonged periods or to direct sunlight. This might cause uncontrollable polymerization of the product with generation of heat.
• Storage and handling should be in stainless steel, amber glass, amber polyethylene or baked phenolic lined containers. Do not store this material under an oxygen free atmosphere. Use dry air to displace material removed from the container. This material should not be stored for more than 2 years.
