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® 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.

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.

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® 3708 is a modified bisphenol A epoxy diacrylate that exhibits relatively low viscosity and good cure response. Films of EBECRYL® 3708 cured by ultra- violet light (UV) or electron beam (EB) demonstrate good flexibility, high gloss, toughness, and superior impact resistance.

CYMEL® UM-15 resin is a highly methylated urea crosslinker supplied as a liquid at >96% solids. Its high solids combined with very fast cure makes CYMEL® UM-15 resin suitable in high solids, low temperature curing systems, like wood and paper coatings. CYMEL® UM-15 is hydrophilic in nature, completely water soluble, and has very good compatibility with water soluble anionic backbone polymers. This makes CYMEL® UM-15 resin suitable for waterborne applications, like paper and wood coatings, where speed of cure is very important.

EBECRYL® 7100 is an acrylated amine primarily used as a hydrogen donor, or photoactivator, in ultraviolet light (UV) curable coatings and inks. When used in formulations in combination with a photosensitizer (e.g. benzophenone), EBECRYL® 7100 provides rapid UV cure response in air by mitigating the effects of oxygen inhibition at the coating or ink surface. Unlike conventional tertiary amines such as N-methyldiethanolamine, EBECRYL® 7100 reacts to become part of the UV cured polymer, resulting in lower residual odor and improved moisture resistance. EBECRYL® 7100 also promotes adhesion to plastic substrates and lowers viscosity when used as a primary component in UV adhesives and coatings.

EBECRYL® 811 is an ultraviolet light (UV) or electron beam (EB) curable polyester acrylate for either wet or dry offset printing on plastic substrates. Inks made using EBECRYL® 811 obtain excellent adhesion to calendered vinyl, polystyrene, polyolefins, polycarbonate and PVC. The water balance of this product allows inks based upon it to be run on press with low amounts of fountain solution: a key parameter for printing on non-absorbent substrates.

TPGDA-A is a difunctional reactive diluent with a branched alkyl polyether backbone. Polymerization occurs when TRIPROPYLENE GLYCOL DIACRYLATE is exposed to sources of free radicals. It is widely used as a primary diluent in the formulation of ultraviolet light (UV) and electron beam (EB) curable coatings and inks. TRIPROPYLENE GLYCOL DIACRYLATE is a grade of tripropylene glycol diacrylate with lower inhibitor content than the standard grade (TPGDA).

EBECRYL® 220 is a hexafunctional aromatic urethane acrylate that provides very fast cure response when exposed to ultraviolet light (UV) or an electron beam (EB). Cured films of EBECRYL® 220 exhibit excellent hardness and solvent resistance.

CYMEL® 304 Resin is a specially alkylated, high solids melamine crosslinking agent designed specifically for industrial wood coating applications. Systems formulated with CYMEL® 304 resin exhibit excellent catalyzed stability and films develop excellent early hardness, resistance properties, appearance, and cold check resistance. It has very low free formaldehyde and low evolved formaldehyde on cure relative to conventional urea-based formulas.

EBECRYL® 7110 is an acrylated amine primarily used as a hydrogen donor, or photoactivator, in ultraviolet light (UV) curable coatings and inks. When used in formulations in combination with a photosensitizer (e.g. benzophenone), EBECRYL® 7110provides rapid UV cure response in air by mitigating the effects of oxygen inhibition at the coating or ink surface. Unlike conventional tertiary amines such as N-methyldiethanolamine, EBECRYL® 7110 reacts to become part of the UV cured polymer, resulting in lower residual odor and improved moisture resistance. EBECRYL® 7110 also promotes adhesion to plastic substrates and lowers viscosity when used as a primary component in UV adhesives and coatings.

HDDA is a difunctional reactive diluent that is commonly used as a component of ultraviolet light (UV) and electron beam (EB) curable coatings and inks. HDDA is particularly useful in coatings and inks where improved elasticity, weathering and adhesion are desired in combination with excellent water resistance.

EBECRYL® 225 is a ten functional aliphatic urethane acrylate. After polymerization, films of EBECRYL® 225 exhibit outstanding surface hardness and low haze development after abrasion. In addition, EBECRYL® 225 does not contain intentionally added organic tin compounds, heavy metals* or quinones.

CYREZ® 966 is a highly methylated melamine crosslinking agent and is the purest form of hexamethoxymethylmelamine available in our product line. Its high degree of alkylation coupled with its high monomer content makes CYREZ® 966 resin an excellent crosslinker for applications where film flexibility is a premium, such as required in some coil and can coatings.
