CYMEL® U-663 resin is a partially iso-butylated urea resin supplied in iso-butanol. The fast drying properties combined with very good block resistance makes CYMEL® U-663 resin suitable for acid curing wood coating applications where low formaldehyde emission and high film gloss is required.

CYMEL® 1172 resin is an unalkylated glycoluril crosslinker supplied in water at 45% solids. It is designed to be used for crosslinking aqueous neutral or acidic hydroxyl or amide functional polymers and combines excellent stability at acidic pH (as low as 4) with excellent reactivity. CYMEL® 1172 resin cannot be used in amine neutralized or basic coating systems because of the potential problems of demethylolation of the compound and a significant decrease in cure response.

EBECRYL® LEO 10553 is a low viscosity polymeric amine modified polyether acrylate that provides low extractables, low odor and low migration and after UV or EB curing. EBECRYL® LEO 10553 is recommended for use in low odor and low migrating UV overprint varnishes (OPV’s) and inks for indirect food packaging applications.

Dynasylan® BTSE is the only commercially available bipodal alkylsilane. It is used in numerous applications where its nature as an excellent crosslinking agent is crucial. Its use usually requires acid- or alkali-catalysed hydrolysis. Since all six ethoxy groups are able to participate in this reaction, Dynasylan® BTSE is regarded as hexafunctional. Hydrolysis leads to silanol groups which, in a subsequent condensation reaction, form very stable siloxane bonds (-Si-O-Si-). Condensation starts before hydrolysis is complete. During storage of these hydrolysates, condensation continues until a gel is formed.

EBECRYL® 286 is an aliphatic urethane diacrylate oligomer diluted 25% with tripropylene glycol diacrylate (TPGDA) monomer. Films of EBECRYL® 286 cured by ultraviolet light (UV) or electron beam (EB) exhibit excellent exterior durability, toughness, and flexibility, as well as the non-yellowing properties typical of an aliphatic urethane.

EBECRYL® 3418 is a modified bisphenol A epoxy diacrylate that exhibits excellent reactivity and reduced viscosity. Films of EBECRYL® 3418 cured by ultraviolet light (UV) or electron beam (EB) demonstrate high flexibility, gloss, toughness, adhesion and superior chemical and scratch resistance.

EBECRYL® 1885 is an undiluted polyesteracrylate resin. Films of EBECRYL® 1885 cured by ultraviolet light (UV) or electron beam (EB) exhibits high flexibility and excellent abrasion resistance. EBECRYL® 1885 is recommended for parquet floor and furniture applications.

EBECRYL® 4859 is a difunctional aliphatic urethane methacrylate that does not contain any intentionally added organic tin compounds, heavy metals*, hydroquinone (HQ) or methyl ether of hydroquinone (MEHQ). (Please note that quinones are present in many raw materials, so the overall quinone content is reduced, but not zero in EBECRYL 4859.) Due to a low intrinsic viscosity, EBECRYL 4859 offers ease of formulating in energy curable systems that are low in viscosity with high oligomer content. Films of EBECRYL 4859 cured by ultraviolet light (UV) or electron beam (EB) exhibit good hardness, optically clarity, low color and good impact resistance.

EBECRYL® 350 is a silicone diacrylate that improves slip, substrate wetting, and coating flow and leveling when used as an additive in formulations cured by ultraviolet light (UV) or electron beam (EB). Cured films containing EBECRYL® 350 will exhibit a smooth, tack free surface, with good blocking resistance. Because of its acrylate functionality, the silicone cures into the polymeric backbone, thus eliminating the migration that free silicones often display in coatings.

CYMEL® 250 Resin is a new type of mixalkylated methylated and n-butylated melamine formaldehyde resin with high imino functions. It is designed specifically for automotive coating system and does not require a strong acid catalyst for fast cure response. CYMEL® 250 Resin is similar reactivity to conventional n-butylated melamine resin. A formulation by using CYMEL® 250 Resin can achieve lower VOC, compared to a formulation by using conventional n-butylated melamine formaldehyde resin.

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).

EBECRYL® 4849 is an aromatic urethane diacrylate diluted 15% by weight with the reactive diluent 1,6-hexanediol diacrylate (HDDA). Films of EBECRYL® 4849 cured by ultraviolet light (UV) or electron beam (EB) exhibit good flexibility, toughness and abrasion resistance.

Dynasylan® GLYEO is a bifunctional organosilane possessing a reactive organic epoxide and a hydrolyzable inorganic triethoxysilyl group. The dual nature of its reactivity allows Dynasylan® GLYEO to bind chemically to both inorganic materials (e.g. glass, metals, fillers) and organic polymers (e.g. thermosets, thermoplastics, elastomers), thus functioning as an adhesion promoter, crosslinking agent and/or surface modifier. Dynasylan® GLYEO is a colorless low­viscosity liquid with a slight terpentine­like odor. It is soluble in alcohols, ketones and aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons.

EBECRYL® 889 is an energy curable polyester acrylate for publication inks. EBECRYL® 889 provides good pigment wetting and color development for process color inks. Inks made with EBECRYL® 889 exhibit good adhesion to super- calendared paper, good ink transfer and excellent printability.

CYMEL® 327 resin is a methylated high imino melamine crosslinker supplied in isobutanol. CYMEL® 327 resin is very reactive and has a tendency towards selfcondensation at normal baking temperatures, providing films with very good hardness, gloss, chemical resistance and outdoor durability. Its major advantage relative to other high imino resins is its potential to lower VOC in high solids formulations.
