Solutions for Next Generation Inkjet Inks: Waterborne UV and UV LED Boosters
Date: April 13, 2018
Time: 11:30am – Day 2, Track 2
Abstract: Because of increasing regulatory pressure on acrylate monomers, the UV curable inkjet market is investigating the use of UV curable waterborne resins and PUDs. After some initial success in this area, investigations are also focusing on the use of waterbased UV PUDs in indirect food packaging applications. Another trend in UV curable inkjet inks is the use of UV LED lamps for the entire curing process. Because of increased oxygen inhibition effects with UV LED, and the desire to reduce/eliminate nitrogen inerting, there is a need for raw materials with faster UV LED cure speeds under ambient cure conditions. This presentation will provide information on both waterbased UV inkjet inks, and a new raw material with improved UV LED cure speed.
Again, we invite you to join us at stand C5 booth to experience first-hand why we’re the leader in the industrial coating resins industry.
