Coatings mentioned in this brochure represent a selection of our product programme UV Gloss coatings. Many special coatings, for example UV based primers or coatings for other printing processes such as web offset, gravure or digital printing, are available on demand.
UV-curable coating technology provides benefits in terms of good performance, environmental compatibility and processing efficiency.
Liquid forms of UV-curing systems are solvent-free, require low energy for curing, and are adaptable to most conventional coating methods. Employing either radical or cationic curing mechanisms, the cross linking of these coatings is initiated by means of UV light.
UV-curable coating formulations are based on acrylated oligomers (mainly acrylic esters of polyesters, polyethers, polyurethanes and epoxy resins).
