- Performance Highlights
UV/EB cured products based on EBECRYL® LED 04 are characterized by the following performance properties:
- Good (surface) cure response
- Good ink water balance
- High gloss
- Low odor
The actual properties of UV/EB cured products also depend on the selection of other formulation components such as the main binder, reactive diluents, additives and photo initiator system.

- Product Applications
EBECRYL® LED 04 is recommended as a co-resin (5 - 20 w% on formulation) to increase surface cure of formulations for overprint varnishes, coatings, flexographic-, gravure-, screen- and offset inks that are cured with UV LED, UVA or low energy lamps.
Properties
- Physical Form
- Compatibility Data
EBECRYL® LED 04 is compatible with a broad range of selected resins of different chemical families, such as urethane acrylates, polyester acrylates, and epoxy acrylates. EBECRYL® LED 04 is also compatible with alkali additives. However, EBECRYL® LED 04 is not compatible with all resins, and this should be checked prior to use. Acidic resins, such as some adhesion promoters, should not be used in combination with EBECRYL® LED 04 as all advantage will be eliminated when quaternary ammonium salts are formed.
Safety & Health
- Safety Precautions
Avoid contact with eyes. Avoid prolonged or repeated contact with skin. Direct contact with this material may cause minimal 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.

Storage & Handling
- Storage Conditions
Before using EBECRYL® LED 04, consult the Safety Data Sheet for additional information on hazards, handling procedures, and recommended protective equipment. The recommended storage temperature for EBECRYL® LED 04 is 4°C to 40°C. 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. EBECRYL® LED 04 should be used within 1 year after production.
