EBECRYL® 4513

EBECRYL® 4513 is an aliphatic urethane acrylate supplied for use in formulations of ultraviolet (UV) and electron beam (EB) energy curable coatings. EBECRYL® 4513 exhibits elastic properties making it suitable for use flexible substrates. Coatings formulated with EBECRYL® 4513 also demonstrate high chemical and wear resistance and are highly resistant to yellowing.

Product Applications
  • EBECRYL 4513 is used to formulate flexible UV/EB energy curable coatings for application by roller coating, spraying, curtain coating and printing on wood, cork, furniture, paper, parquet, plastics, glass and films.
  • EBECRYL 4513 can also be used to formulate temporary (strippable) coatings.
Formulation Information
  • Depending on the application, the coating can be adjusted to the appropriate viscosity using standard reactive diluents such as dipropylene glycol diacrylate (DPGDA), 1,6-hexanediol diacrylate (HDDA), isobornyl acrylate (IBOA)", and trimethylolpropane triacrylate (TMPTA) or solvents such as butyl acetate.
  • The reactive diluent must be selected carefully as it may impact considerably on the properties and storage stability of the coating.
  • Because of the many potential combinations with reactive diluents and solvents compatibility must be tested in each individual case.
  • The binder may be heated to a maximum of 60°C for application.
  • It is possible to combine EBECRYL 4513 with selected other EBECRYL binders.
  • UV curing of coatings formulated with EBECRYL 4513 requires the addition of standard commercial photoinitiators.
  • Typical levels are 4-6%, though this may vary to meet the reactivity requirements of the application.
  • In the case of EB curing, a low oxygen atmosphere must be ensured to avoid surface inhibition.
  • Lower gloss coatings can be produced using standard matting agents.
  • Care should be taken with respect to sedimentation which may cause the coating to gel prematurely.

Storage & Handling

Storage Conditions
  • Before using EBECRYL 4513, consult the Safety Data Sheet for additional information on safety and handling procedures, and recommended personal protective equipment.
  • The recommended storage temperature for EBECRYL 4513 is 4°C to 40°C (39°F to104°F).
  • Care should be taken not to expose the product to high temperature conditions, direct sunlight, ignition sources, oxidizing agents, alkalis or acids.
  • Prevent inadvertent contact with peroxides and other radical initiators and contact with copper, copper alloys, carbon steel, iron and rust.
  • 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.
