UCECOAT® 6570

UCECOAT® 6570 is a 3 functional aliphatic urethane acrylate oligomer diluted with 5% water. This water dilutable urethane acrylate is particularly useful in screen inks and varnishes for water based applications; giving good water- and solvent resistance after curing by ultraviolet light (UV) or electron beam (EB).

Principal: allnex Radcure

Chemical Family: Aliphatics, Urethane Acrylates

Product Performance

UCECOAT® 6570 is characterized by:

  • Low color
  • High viscosity

UV/EB cured products based on UCECOAT® 6570 are characterized by the following performance properties:

  • Good water- and solvent resistance
  • Fast curing
  • Low MeHQ level

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.
