EBECRYL® 450 is a fatty acid modified polyester hexaacrylate. Because of the special structure of the backbone and the high acrylic functionality, EBECRYL® 450 provides the proper hydrophilic-lipophilic balance necessary for lithography, combined with high reactivity when cured by ultraviolet light (UV) or an electron beam (EB). Lithographic inks based on EBECRYL® 450 display outstanding printing qualities, including excellent ink transfer, good dot definition, and proper tack and rheological properties.

TEGO® DISPers 651 is a waterborne wetting and dispersing additive specifically used for the production of universal colorants for decorative coatings. Wets and stabilizes inorganic and organic pigments. Can be used for a whole colorant line. Anionic and solvent-free.

EBECRYL® 5848 is an epoxidized soya oil acrylate based in part on renewable resources. EBECRYL® 5848 provides improved flow, leveling and pigment wetting in ultraviolet light (UV) or electron beam (EB) energy curable inks and coatings. Adhesion and flexibility are often enhanced when EBECRYL® 5848 is used as a modifier in inks and clear or pigmented coatings on paper and metal.

Pale 4 polymerized castor oil oxidative polymerization of castor oil yields products with increased viscosities and decreasing solubility in aliphatic solvents. Pale 4 polymerized castor oil is used to plasticize a variety of resins in adhesive and sealant systems, inks and hot melts. It is a processing aid and plasticizer for rubber polymers.

EBECRYL® 452 is a low viscosity polyester acrylate oligomer that exhibits exceptional pigment wetting properties making it an ideal pigment grinding resin. EBECRYL® 452 also gives a fast cure response when formulated with other oligomers and cured via ultraviolet light (UV) or electron beam (EB). EBECRYL® 452 is used for the preparation of highly loaded pigment pastes produced using 3-roll or bead mills. EBECRYL® 452 can be used for grinding all process colors and spot colors.

TEGO® DISPers 652 is a wetting and dispersing additive for inorganic pigments. Can be used in direct grinds of solventborne and radiation-curing formulations to reduce the viscosity. As a co-additive in universal colorants, it acts as a compatibilizer.

EBECRYL® 8414 is a urethane acrylate developed for liquid energy curable thermoforming inks. Flexographic inks made with EBECRYL® 8414 exhibit excellent thermoformability with draws up to 1" without cracking, blistering, separation or loss of adhesion. This medium viscosity oligomer has good pigment wetting capability and ink performance.

EBECRYL® LEO 10601 is a modified epoxy acrylate that provides low extractables and low odor after UV or EB curing. EBECRYL® LEO 10601 exhibits good pigment wetting properties and produces UV offset inks exhibiting enhanced ink-water balance and low misting. EBECRYL® LEO 10601 can also be used to produce UV flexo inks with good flow, high gloss and high reactivity.

Paricin® 285 Ground is a brittle wax-like solid formed from the reaction of an amine with hydroxystearic acid. The formed hydroxystearamide is a high melting point, wax-like material that is extremely resistant to acids and alkalies in contrast to natural and synthetic ester waxes. Paricin® 285 Ground has excellent lubrication, anti-static and pigment wetting properties.

EBECRYL® 80 is an amine modified polyether tetraacrylate that exhibits relatively low viscosity and exceptionally fast cure via exposure to ultraviolet light (UV). Films of EBECRYL® 80 cured by UV or electron beam (EB) demonstrate high gloss, good solvent resistance and low residual odor. EBECRYL 80 is especially suited for fast curing UV overprint varnishes, and due to its low viscosity and good pigment wetting characteristics, is also recommended for UV flexo inks.

TEGO® VariPlus CA N shows excellent viscosity reduction and helps accelerate drying speed. It provides very good adhesion on metal combined with high gloss and good weather resistance.

Pale 1000 Blown Castor Oil commonly known as blown oils have increasing viscosities resulting from oxidative and crosslink polymerization at the double bonds and hydroxyl groups. Oxidative polymerization of castor oil yields products with increased viscosities and decreasing solubility in aliphatic solvents, increasing compatibility with various resins and improved ability to wet and disperse pigments while imparting solvent and abrasion resistance to lacquer systems. The polymerized oils are used to plasticize a variety of resins in adhesive and sealant systems, inks and hot melts. The heavier viscosity polymerized oils are processing aids and plasticizers for rubber polymers, imparting oil and solvent resistance.

EBECRYL® 8702 is an aliphatic urethane hexaacrylate that offers a multitude of performance properties allowing the formulator the flexibility to meet requirements. Films using EBECRYL® 8702 cured by ultraviolet light (UV) or electron beam (EB) exhibit a combination of hardness, abrasion and impact resistance coupled with good exterior durability.

EBECRYL® 444 is a reactive chlorinated polyester resin diluted 40% with the reactive diluent propoxylated glycerol triacrylate (OTA-480) (1). EBECRYL® 444 is not based on bisphenol A raw materials, and is tin-free. It exhibits good lithographic behavior and pigment wetting properties, and fast cure response in ultraviolet light (UV) curable coatings and inks. Cured films of EBECRYL® 444 display good adhesion to metals, and paper.

TEGO® Dispers 658 is a non-ionic wetting and dispersing additive that can be used in waterborne formulations and in universal colorants. It provides excellent pigment wetting and color strength development especially for organic pigments.
