- Storage and Handling
Care should be taken not to expose the product to high temperature conditions, direct sunlight, ignition sources, oxidizing agents, alkalis or acids. This might cause uncontrollable polymerization of the product with the generation of heat. Storage and handling should be in stainless steel, amber glass, amber polyethylene or baked phenolic lined containers. Procedures that remove or displace oxygen from the material should be avoided. Do not store this material under an oxygen free atmosphere. Dry air is recommended to displace material removed from the container. Wash thoroughly after handling. Keep container tightly closed. Use with adequate ventilation.
- Performance Highlights
EBECRYL LEO 10103 is characterized by: • Low viscosity • Good cure response UV cured products based on EBECRYL LEO 10103 are characterized by the following performance properties: • Low residual odor • Low extractables The actual properties of UV cured products also depend on the selection of the other formulation components, such as oligomers, reactive diluent(s) and additives.
- Suggested Applications
Formulated UV curable products containing EBECRYL LEO 10103 may be applied by flexography, screen, gravure, direct or reverse roll.. EBECRYL LEO 10103 is recommended for use in: • Low migration inks • Low migration overprint varnishes
- Formulation Guideline
The recommended level of EBECRYL LEO 10103 in an ink or coating is 10-20% to obtain balanced surface and through cure. For best performance, EBECRYL LEO 10103 must be combined with a synergist to overcome oxygen inhibition. For low migration offset inks, polymeric amino benzoates can be used. For flexo inks and OPVs, EBECRYL LEO 10103 can be combined with low migration amino acrylates such as EBECRYL 85, EBECRYL LEO 10551, EBECRYL LEO 10552 and EBECRYL 10553.
