EBECRYL® 605

EBECRYL® 605 is a bisphenol A epoxy diacrylate diluted approximately 27% by weight with the reactive diluent tripropylene glycol diacrylate (TPGDA) to provide a lower viscosity, easier handling product. EBECRYL 605 exhibits light color and fast cure response. Films of EBECRYL 605 cured via ultraviolet light (UV) or electron beam (EB) demonstrate high gloss, surface hardness and superior chemical resistance.

Technical Details & Test Data

Technical Data

EBECRYL® 605 - Viscosity Reduction With Reactive Diluents

EBECRYL® 605 - Technical Data - 1

Graph I shows the viscosity reduction of EBECRYL® 605 with 1,6-hexanediol diacrylate (HDDA), isobornyl acrylate (IBOA)  trimethylolpropane triacrylate (TMPTA), and tripropylene glycol diacrylate (TPGDA). Although viscosity reduction can be achieved with non-reactive solvents, reactive diluents are preferred because they are essentially 100 percent converted during UV/EB exposure to form a part of the coating or ink, thus reducing solvent emissions. The specific reactive diluents used will influence performance properties such as hardness and flexibility.

Storage & Handling

Storage Conditions
  • 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.
