- Performance Highlights
- EBECRYL® 896 is characterized by:
- High acrylate functionality
- Lower viscosity compared with standard DPHA
- Low in acid value resulting in better ink/water balance when used in litho inks
- UV/EB cured products based on EBECRYL® 896 are characterized by the following performance properties:
- Fast cure response
- High cross-link density
- Improved scratch and abrasion resistance
- Excellent hardness
- Good chemical resistance
- 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.
- EBECRYL® 896 is characterized by:

Storage & Handling
- Storage and Handling 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. EBECRYL® 896 can become partially crystalline during storage at ambient temperatures.
- Crystallization does not impact the quality of the product.
- Before use, crystallized material should be fully liquified by heating for 48 hours at 60°C.
- Ovens or hotboxes are recommended methods of heating.
- Heating bands or blankets should not be used.
- It is recommended that during heating the material be agitated at regular intervals to assure redistribution of polymerization inhibitor and oxygen.
