EBECRYL® MAES is a versatile monofunctional acrylate monomer that polymerizes under free radical initiation. This acid-functional diluent is compatible with various acrylated resins used in radiation curing applications, and offers superior purity, odor, and lower volatility when compared to β-CEA. It enhances adhesion on metallic, plastic, and paper substrates and is ideal for use in clear coats, inks, laminates, pressuresensitive adhesives, and other UV-curable systems. Additionally, EBECRYL® MAES is suitable for developable etch and plate photoresist formulations.

EBECRYL® 8405 is an aliphatic urethane tetraacrylate diluted 20% by weight with the reactive diluent 1,6-hexanediol diacrylate (HDDA)(1). Films of EBECRYL 8405 cured by ultraviolet light (UV) or electron beam (EB) combine abrasion resistance, flexibility, and adhesion with excellent exterior durability and resistance to yellowing.

UCECOAT® 7710 is a solvent free, energy curable polyurethane dispersion specifically developed for high gloss applications on wood and plastics. It exhibits high hardness and scratch resistance. UCECOAT® 7710 is not physically drying before UV curing.

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® 8809 is a difunctional aliphatic urethane acrylate 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 8809.) Films of EBECRYL 8809 cured by ultraviolet light (UV) or electron beam (EB) exhibit excellent exterior durability, toughness, and resistance to yellowing. EBECRYL LEO 10501 is present at 5% in this product.

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® 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.

EBECRYL® 221 is a hexafunctional aromatic urethane acrylate oligomer which provides very fast cure response when exposed to ultraviolet light (UV) or electron beam (EB). Cured films of EBECRYL® 221 exhibit high hardness and solvent resistance.

EBECRYL® 3700 is the diacrylate ester of a bisphenol A epoxy resin, and exhibits low odor and exceptional cure response. Films of EBECRYL® 3700 cured by ultraviolet light (UV) or electron beam (EB) demonstrate high surface hardness, high gloss, and excellent chemical resistance. EBECRYL® 3700 finds broad use in UV/EB applications, such as coatings, overprint varnishes, inks, adhesives, and electronics.

EBECRYL® LED 02, a mercapto modified polyester acrylate resin, can be added as a co-resin to UV curable formulations. EBECRYL LED 02 transforms formulations into UV LED, UVA, or low energy curable systems by providing better surface cure. In addition, this co-resin can also be used to obtain better surface cure in high energy cure formulations. EBECRYL LED 02 provides better surface cure by mitigating oxygen inhibition of the free radical process.

EBECRYL® LEO 10551 is a low viscosity amine modified polyether acrylate oligomer that provides low extractables, low odor and low migration after UV or EB curing.EBECRYL LEO 10551 is recommended for use in low odor and low migrating UV overprint varnishes (OPV’s) and inks for indirect food packaging applications.

EBECRYL® 8213 is an aliphatic urethane acrylate with 70% solid content diluted in butyl acetate. EBECRYL® 8213 exhibits good yellowing resistance and very good outdoor resistance. Furthermore this resin provides very good adhesion onto aluminium-based vacuum metallization layer and most metallic basecoats for plastic coating.

VANCRYL® 450 is a high solids colloidal dispersion that can be neutralized with ammonia or other alkaline materials to provide an outstanding vehicle for corrugated printing ink applications. VANCRYL® 450, at 40% solids, reduces the cost in ink systems based on pre-neutralized colloidal acrylics. VANCRYL® 450 exhibits excellent black pigment grinding, and high drink in corrugated systems. This polymer, when neutralized with ammonia at 10% solids in water, has a viscosity of 150 cP, or about 40 seconds on a # 2 Zahn cup. It provides excellent transfer and printing at this low, economical solids level. Neutralization can be easily accomplished by a simple mixing of 100 parts polymer wet, 95 parts water, and 5 parts ammonia. This mixture produces a 20% solids colloidal emulsion with a viscosity of 6000 to 9000 cP. It can be used in black pigment dispersions as well as color letdowns for corrugated inks. VANCRYL® 450 is also an effective thickener for other formulations based on acrylic and styrenated acrylic polymers.
