EBECRYL® 140

EBECRYL® 140 by allnex is ditrimethylolpropane tetraacrylate, a reactive diluent. It exhibits good cure response, light color and low irritancy. It is compatible with a wide range of acrylated resins used in UV/EB curing applications. It provides substantial improvements in flexibility, hardness, and chemical-, scratch-, and abrasion- resistance. Effective levels of EBECRYL® 140 typically range from 10% to 30%, depending on the application. In lithographic inks and varnishes, it is quite effective in adjusting viscosity. The high functionality provides increased crosslink density in coatings, which improves gloss, hardness, and durability.
