Applications
Product Applications
  • Ebecryl®4744 is a polyester acrylate with a very balanced property profile.
  • It can be used as the sole binder or used in combination with other binders to set specific properties.
  • Ebecryl®4744 is used in the formulation of radiation-curing coatings (UV and electron beam) for the coating of wood, furniture, paper, parquet and films via the roller, spray and curtain coating processes.
Formulation Information
  • Depending on the application, the coatings can be set to application viscosity using common reactive thinners (mono-, di-, tri-, or tetra-acrylic acid esters) or solvent (e.g. butyl acetate).
  • Because of the low-viscosity supply from, coating formulations require less reactive thinner and thus the binder properties are retained over a broad range of viscosities.

Physical Form
Compatibility Data
  • Because of the large number of possible combinations of thinners, solvents and others substances, compatibility and storage stability must be tested in each case.
