UV LED curing resins & additives

Enhance your UV LED curing process

With the right additives and resins, you can easily get the most out of your curing process with UV LED light. Not only can allnex’ UV LED curing resins speed production up but also enhance performance attributes such as cross-linking density or color strength. Learn more about your benefits:

• Shorter production cycles – complete and fast surface cure make faster production possible

• High compatibility – easy to incorporate with most acrylate monomers and oligomers

• Tough, hard and durable – final coatings are scratch and chemically resistant

• Eco-friendly curing – low temperature curing, low/zero VOC emissions and BPA-free structure

Our versatile product line for UV LED curing systems

The UV LED curing resins EBECRYL® LED 02 and EBECRYL® LED 03 can both be added as a co-resin to UV curable formulations and transform these into powerful UV LED, UV-A, or low energy curable systems by providing improved surface cure. Furthermore, the EBECRYL® LED line enhances other formulation properties like pigment wetting and adhesion. The UV LED resins are suited for performance applications and packaging coatings, plus, they are BPA-free and emit low to zero VOC which make them a perfect fit for a greener UV LED curing. Final UV LED coatings benefit from improved scratch and chemical resistance, and improved hardness.

• ​Low temperature curing

• Faster cycle time

• No or low flammability

• Lower energy consumption

When fast curing times and great properties are needed

EBECRYL® 8811 is the perfect choice when rapid surface cure is needed in both high and low energy cure systems. Thus, it particularly useful to obtain good surface cure in UV LED and UV-A curing. EBECRYL® 8811 films that are cured by UV light excel in flexibility, abrasion and yellowing resistance, and toughness. This UV LED curing resin is therefore recommended for specialty coatings, industrial wood and packaging coatings.

• ​​Abrasion resistance

• Improved flexibility

• clear topcoat

• Multi-substrate adhesion

High compatibility for UV curing meets good property balancing

EBECRYL 5850 is a unique, highly reactive grade that is as well suitable for UV LED curing. Final products benefit from a good balance of properties such as improved hardness alongside high gloss potential. EBECRYL 5850 is a BPA-free, bio based raw material that reduces energy consumption and has a lower carbon footprint than other UV LED curing resins & additives. It is easy to incorporate as formulations show a good compatibility and long potlife.

• ​Low temperature curing

• Faster cycle time

• No or low flammability

• Lower energy consumption
