EBECRYL® 4858 is a low viscosity aliphatic urethane diacrylate. Due to a low intrinsic viscosity, EBECRYL® 4858 offers ease of formulating in energy curable systems that are low in viscosity with high oligomer content. Films of EBECRYL® 4858 cured by ultraviolet light (UV) or electron beam (EB) exhibit good hardness, optically clarity, low color and good impact resistance.

UCECOAT® 7891 is a high performance acrylated polyurethane dispersion specifically developed for UV curable field applied matte wood and VCT (vinyl composition tile) floor coatings. UCECOAT® 7891 allows for the development of low gloss formulations without the use of silicas or other particles. This results in formulations with better shelf life, since the settling of particles is no longer a concern. If very low gloss formulations are desired, silica can be used at very low levels to achieve this. The very low level of silica also translates into better formulation stability. Floor coatings based on UCECOAT® 7891 exhibit a good balance of flexibility and hardness, thus providing good adhesion and coin scuff. Excellent solvent and chemical resistance are also provided through use of UCECOAT® 7891.

VANCRYL® 68 S is an aqueous solution of VANCRYL® 68 acrylic resin, with ammonia used to affect the solution. VANCRYL® 68 S provides outstanding pigment wetting along with the viscosity stability needed for aqueous gravure and flexographic inks. The transfer properties and hold-out characteristics of inks prepared with this resin solution are excellent. In coatings, VANCRYL® 68 S provides high gloss, scuff resistance, and hardness. VANCRYL® 68 S is compatible with most acrylic vehicles and other vehicles such as maleic resins. VANCRYL® 68 S is effective as a protective colloid in the production of styrene-acrylic copolymer emulsions.

CYMEL® UI-38-I resin is a partially iso-butylated urea crosslinker supplied in iso-butanol and intended for use in industrial stoving applications and especially systems applied by electrostatic spray. Because of the poor weathering resistance of urea resins, CYMEL® UI-38-I is not recommended for exterior applications.

UCECOAT® 7734 is a UV curable polyurethane acrylate dispersion in water characterized by its outstanding stain resistance in both clear and white pigmented coatings, while maintaining very good flexibility.

CYMEL® NF 3030 Resin is a formaldehyde-free crosslinking agent supplied in water. It was designed primarily for use in 2 component, ambient or forced cure, water-borne conversion varnishes for industrial wood when formulated with VIACRYL® SC 6834w/42WA amine-free acrylic emulsion. Resulting formulas exhibit superior catalyzed pot life relative to isocyanate-based conversion varnishes. The resulting coatings have excellent appearance, early hardness, resistance properties, and hot/cold cycle flexibility.

UCECOAT® 7849 is a radiation curable polyurethane dispersion which is tack- free before cure and after water evaporation. It was developed for wood coatings, but can also be used for other applications. Because of its non- irritant nature and low viscosity, it and can be applied safely by spray coating and curtain coating.

EBECRYL® 4510 is an isocyanate functional aliphatic urethane acrylate supplied at 90% solids in butyl acetate. It is useful as an adhesion promoter ultraviolet (UV) and electron beam (EB) energy curable coatings and in two-component dual cure coatings.

UCECOAT® 2801 is an acrylated polyurethane dispersion in water designed for waterborne UV/EB curable inkjet inks. UCECOAT® 2801 is anionic in nature, making it compatible with water without any external emulsifier. Due to the presence of these ionic groups, it is not stable under highly acidic conditions. UCECOAT® 2801 contains no co-solvent. UCECOAT® 2801 exhibits good properties concerning the jetting and water resolubility before cure which are key requirements for inkjet application. UCECOAT® 2801 provides hardness in the polymerized coating along with good stain and chemical resistance.

EBECRYL® 1606 is a bisphenol A epoxy diacrylate diluted with 20-25% of trimethylolpropane triacrylate (TMPTA)(1) monomer. EBECRYL® 1606 is characterized by its light color, low odour and fast cure response. Films of EBECRYL® 1606 cured by ultraviolet light (UV) or electron beam (EB) exhibit high gloss, high surface hardness and the good solvent resistance typical of an epoxyresin.

EBECRYL® 3720-TM40 is the bisphenol A epoxy diacrylate, EBECRYL 3720, diluted 40% by weight with the reactive diluent trimethylolpropane triacrylate (TMPTA)(1) to provide a lower viscosity, easier handling product. EBECRYL® 3720-TM40 exhibits fast cure response and light color. Films of EBECRYL® 3720-TM40 cured by ultraviolet light (UV) or electron beam (EB) demonstrate high gloss and surface hardness, and excellent chemical resistance.

RHOPLEX® 800h was developed to allow for early hardness development in low VOC glossy paints particularly in deep tones. RHOPLEX® 800h unique morphology with ambient crosslinking enables improved hardness, tackiness, block resistance and feel properties.

EBECRYL® 140 is ditrimethylolpropane tetraacrylate, a reactive diluent exhibiting good cure response and light color. The addition of relatively small amounts of EBECRYL® 140 to ultraviolet light (UV) and electron beam (EB) curable coatings and inks can provide substantial improvements in cure response, hardness, and chemical, scratch, and abrasion resistance. EBECRYL® 140 is particularly useful in lithographic offset inks and overprint varnishes.

UCECOAT® 7510 is used in automotive OEM coatings, industrial coatings, paints and coatings markets. It cures by radiation and functions as a binder and resin.
