Examples of Difunctional and Polyfunctional Acrylates Used in UV Curing [Pg.75]

Monomer Type of Main Chain Functionality Abbreviation Molecular Weight Viscosity, mPa.s at 25°C [Pg.75]

Silicone acrylates Acrylated organopolysiloxanes exhibit excellent release properhes and are used as release coahngs on papers and films. The silicone structure provides flexibility and resistance to heat, moisture, radiahon degradahon, and shear forces. [Pg.76]

Polyether acrylates Polyether acrylates are produced by esterification of polyetherols with acrylic acid. They have a very low viscosity and do not require reactive thinners. Amino-modified polyether acrylates have a higher reactivity and low skin irritance, similar to polyester acrylates. [Pg.76]

Solid urethane and polyester acrylates may be used as main components of radiation curable powders. Together with suitable unsaturated polyesters, powders are formed, which give low-film-flow temperatures and allow separating of film formation from curing. This technology has been used successfully in powder coating of wood and plastics. [Pg.76]
