EBECRYL® 8002 is a low-viscosity oligomer that enhances UV/EB formulations by providing high elongation and increased flexibility, while maintaining strength and improving adhesion. It effectively lowers the glass transition temperature (Tg) in various applications.

EBECRYL® 246/20HEMA is a difunctional aliphatic urethane acrylate that does not contain intentionally added organic tin compounds, heavy metals or quinones. The resin is diluted in 20 parts HEMA. (Please note that quinones are present in many raw materials, so the overall quinone content is reduced, but not zero). Films of Ebecryl®246/20HEMA cured by electron beam (EB) or ultraviolet light (UV) exhibit excellent abrasion resistance, toughness and flexibility and are resistant to yellowing.

EBECRYL® 117 is a low odor aliphatic mono-functional diluting acrylate. It is recommended for use in ultraviolet light (UV) or electron beam (EB) curable coatings to increase flexibility and improve adhesion.

ACURE 500 systems harness the high reactivity of Michael Addition enabling paint formulators to design two-component coatings with extremely fast drying and with uncharacteristically long pot lives. ACURE 500 consists of a strong base which is blocked with di-ethyl carbonate. ACURE 500 unblocks with the release of alcohol and CO2 and is the key enabler to the provision of fast dry times with long pot lives in ACURE coatings. The rate at which ACURE 500 unblocks may be controlled by the addition of an alcohol (typically ethanol, n-propanol, or n-butanol) to the ACURE coating.
