EBECRYL® 50 is the tetraacrylate ester of 5-mole ethoxylated pentaerythritol. This low-viscosity diluting oligomer is characterized by its low odor and light color. Offering a fast cure response in ultraviolet light (UV) or electron beam (EB)-cured coatings and inks, EBECRYL® 50 stands out for its high reactivity. It plays a dual role by enhancing the hardness and solvent resistance of cured coatings and inks. This product finds particular utility in offset inks, flexo inks, and overprint varnishes. It is a valuable component in radiation-curable coating formulations.
