Properties of cured coatings

Epoxy acrylate resins are known for their good adhesive properties, high chemical resistance, thermal stability and non-yellowing. [Pg.17]

Polyester acrylate coatings are hard, tough and solvent-resistant. Adhesion is generally poor and, therefore, they are often used in conjunction with polyurethanes. Alkali resistance is rather poor due to the sensitive ester linka. [Pg.17]

Polyurethane acrylates are sensitive to sunlight and they exhibit severe yellowing. [Pg.17]

Polysiloxane acrylates are very flexible materials which retain their rubbery properties even at very low temperatures. Their synthesis, curing behavior and adhesive properties has been described in Ref [Pg.17]

we have only given a few examples of some classes of UV-curable coating constituents. In practice, many more classes of compounds are in use and in most cases coatings for specific purposes are complicated mixtures. [Pg.17]
