EBECRYL® 885

EBECRYL®885 is characterized by:

• Moderate viscosity
• Good reactivity

UV/EB curable formulated products containing EBECRYL®885 are characterized by:

• Excellent abrasion resistance
• High flexibility

The actual properties of UV/EB cured products also depend on the selection of the other formulation components such as oligomers, additives and photoinitiators.

EBECRYL®885 is recommended as for in:

• Parquet flooring
• Furniture coatings
• Metal coatings
• Plastic coatings
• Resilient flooring

GRAPH I:EBECRYL®885 - VISCOSITY REDUCTION WITH REACTIVE DILUENTS

• Graph I shows the viscosity reduction of EBECRYL®885 with 1,6-dipropylene glycol diacrylate (DPGDA)¹ , neopentyl glycol propoxylate diacrylate (NPG(PO)2DA)¹ , tripropylene glycol diacrylate (TPGDA)¹ propoxylated glycerol triacrylate (OTA- 480)¹and EBECRYL 40¹.
• 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, thus reducing solvent emissions.
• The specific reactive diluents used will influence performance properties such as hardness and flexibility.

• Avoid contact with eyes and skin.
• Direct contact with this material may cause moderate eye and skin irritation.
• Contact with skin may cause a cross-allergic reaction in persons already sensitized to acrylate materials.
• Wash thoroughly after handling.
• Keep container tightly closed.
• Use with adequate ventilation.

• The recommended storage temperature range for EBECRYL®885 is 4°C to 40°C (39°F to 104°F).
• 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.
