Acrylated Dipentaerythritol (DPHA) is a multifunctional reactive diluent that polymerizes when exposed to sources of free radicals. DPHA is particularly useful in ultraviolet light (UV) and electron beam (EB) curable coatings and inks where improved cure response, hardness, and scratch/abrasion resistance are desired. DPHA is composed predominately of the penta- and hexa-acrylate esters of dipentaerythritol, with the overall composition represented by the included chemical structure.

B-CEA is a mixture of reactive esters, each of which contain both acrylate and carboxylic acid functionality in the same molecule. Referring to the included structural formula, this mixture contains some unreacted acrylic acid (n=0), along with higher adducts of acrylic acid (n=1,2,3...). The dimer (n=1). B-CEA, is the largest single component, and the average molecular weight is equivalent to that of the dimer. B-CEA will polymerize when exposed to sources of free radicals. Because of its carboxylic acid functionality, B-CEA is useful as an adhesion promoter

DPGDA is a difunctional reactive diluent that polymerizes when exposed to sources of free radicals. DPGDA is particularly useful in coatings and inks where improved flexibility and adhesion are desired in combination with good moisture resistance.

EBECRYL® 53 is a purified grade of OTA 480, especially developed for formulating ultraviolet light (UV) and electron beam (EB) curable printing inks and overprint varnishes for food packaging applications. The purification process removes impurities that are potential sources for odor and extractables in cured products.

EBECRYL® 571 is a diluted polyester resin for narrow web shrink sleeve applications. It exhibits excellent adhesion, high flexibility, and superb shrink performance. For optimum performance EBECRYL 571 should be the dominant resin in the heat shrink ink formulation. EBECRYL 571 contains dipropyleneglycol diacrylate (DPGDA)(1) monomer.

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.

EBECRYL® 5850 is a high performing medium viscosity bio-based diacrylate. When properly formulated, coatings and inks based on EBECRYL® 5850 cured by ultraviolet light (UV) or electron beam (EB) energy display high reactivity with good hardness and scratch resistance.

EBECRYL® 605 is a bisphenol A epoxy diacrylate diluted approximately 27% by weight with the reactive diluent tripropylene glycol diacrylate (TPGDA) to provide a lower viscosity, easier handling product. EBECRYL 605 exhibits light color and fast cure response. Films of EBECRYL 605 cured via ultraviolet light (UV) or electron beam (EB) demonstrate high gloss, surface hardness and superior chemical resistance.

EBECRYL® 605/20 is the bisphenol A epoxy diacrylate, EBECRYL 600, diluted 20% by weight with the reactive diluent tripropylene glycol diacrylate (TPGDA) (1) to provide a lower viscosity, easier handling product. EBECRYL® 605/20 exhibits light color and fast cure response. Films of EBECRYL® 605/20 cured via ultraviolet light (UV) or electron beam (EB) demonstrate high gloss, surface hardness, and the superior chemical resistance typical of an epoxy resin.

EBECRYL® 605/40 is a bisphenol A epoxy diacrylate diluted approximately 40% by weight with the reactive diluent tripropylene glycol diacrylate (TPGDA) (1) to provide a lower viscosity, easier handling product. EBECRYL® 605/40 exhibits light color and fast cure response. Films of EBECRYL 605/40 cured via ultraviolet light (UV) or electron beam (EB) demonstrate high gloss, surface hardness, and superior chemical resistance.

EBECRYL® 608 is a bisphenol A epoxy diacrylate diluted approximately 27% by weight with the reactive diluent OTA- 480, propoxylated glycerol triacrylate. EBECRYL® 608 exhibits light color and very fast cure response. Films of EBECRYL® 608 cured via exposure to ultraviolet light (UV) or electron beam (EB) demonstrate high surface hardness and gloss, low residual odor and excellent chemical resistance.

EBECRYL® 629 is an acrylated epoxy novolac diluted with the reactive diluents trimethylolpropane triacrylate (TMPTA) and hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA). When cured via ultraviolet light (UV) or electron beam (EB), EBECRYL® 629 exhibits high surface hardness, good heat resistance, low shrinkage, and good adhesion to metal, particularly copper. This resin was specifically designed for UV cure solder resist applications.
