EBECRYL® 249

EBECRYL® 249 is characterized by:

• Light color
• High viscosity

UV/EB cured products based on EBECRYL® 249 are characterized by the following performance properties:

• Excellent non-yellowing
• High scuff and abrasion resistance
• Good exterior durability

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 Formulated UV/EB curable products containing EBECRYL® 249 may be applied by lithographic, screen, gravure, direct or reverse roll, and curtain coating methods.
EBECRYL® 249 is recommended for use in:

• Clear coatings for paper
• Clear coatings on flexible and semi-rigid plastics
• Silk screen inks
• Solder resists as a flexibilizer
• Wood top coats

• EBECRYL® 249 can be diluted with reactive monomers such as 1,6- hexanediol diacrylate (HDDA) , tripropyleneglycol diacrylate (TPGDA) , trimethylolpropane triacrylate (TMPTA) , oligotriacrylate (OTA 480) and EBECRYL® PEG200DMA.
• The specific reactive diluent(s) used will influence performance properties such as hardness and flexibility.

• Care should be taken not to expose the product to high temperature conditions, direct sunlight, ignition sources, oxidizing agents, alkalis or acids.
• This might cause uncontrollable polymerization of the product with the generation of heat.
• Storage and handling should be in stainless steel, amber glass, amber polyethylene or baked phenolic lined containers.
• Procedures that remove or displace oxygen from the material should be avoided.
• Do not store this material under an oxygen free atmosphere.
• Dry air is recommended to displace material removed from the container.
• Wash thoroughly after handling. Keep container tightly closed.
• Use with adequate ventilation.
