Product Applications

Formulated UV/EB curable products containing Ebecryl®1291 may be applied by lithographic, screen, gravure, direct or reverse roll, and curtain coating methods.

Ebecryl®1291 is recommended for use in:

  • Wood coatings and fillers
  • Scratch resistant coatings on plastic
  • Improving cure speed, solvent resistance and gloss
Performance Highlights

Ebecryl®1291 is characterized by:

  • Light colour
  • Excellent cure response

UV/EB cured products based on Ebecryl®1291 are characterized by the following performance properties:

  • High hardness and scratch resistance
  • High solvent resistance
  • High gloss
  • Extremely fast cure speed
  • Non-yellowing properties

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.

Storage & Handling

Storage and Handling Conditions
  • 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 after manufacturing date.
