Suggested Applications: EBECRYL® 140 is a reactive diluent that is compatible with a wide range of acrylated resins used in UV/EB curing applications. 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 while maintaining or improving cure response and physical properties. The high functionality of EBECRYL® 140 provides increased crosslink density in UV/EB curedcoatings, which can help improve gloss, hardness, and durability.
Compatible Substrates and Surfaces: Wood
