- Suggested Applications
EBECRYL 1141 is recommended for use in coatings and inks requiring low residual content and reduction of potential extractables when formulated with other purified products and additives. EBECRYL 1141 is a reactive diluent that is compatible with a wide range of acrylated resins used in UV/EB curing applications.
Effective levels of EBECRYL 1141 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 1141 provides increased crosslink density in UV/EB cured coatings and inks, which can help improve gloss, hardness, and durability.

Storage & Handling
- 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.
