EBECRYL® 1271, a difunctional aliphatic urethane acrylate, stands out for its formulation without intentionally added organic tin compounds, heavy metals, hydroquinone (HQ), or methyl ether of hydroquinone (MEHQ). While acknowledging the presence of quinones in some raw materials, EBECRYL® 1271 significantly reduces overall quinone content, but not to zero. Films cured by ultraviolet light (UV) or electron beam (EB) showcase commendable flexibility, adhesion, abrasion resistance, exterior durability, and resistance to yellowing, making it a reliable choice for diverse applications.
