Performance Highlights

EBECRYL 350 is characterized by:
• Low surface tension
• Low viscosity
• Good compatibility with other acrylates
• Non-migratory                                                                                                                   
UV/EB cured products based on EBECRYL 350 are characterized by the following
performance properties:
• Low COF, increased slip
• Resistance to blocking
• High gloss
• Good mar resistance                                                                                                            
The actual properties of UV/EB cured products also depend on the selection of
other formulation components such as reactive diluents, additives and photoinitiators.

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.

EBECRYL 350 may exhibit crystallization if subjected to temperatures below
15°C. This crystallization can be removed by heating containers of EBECRYL 350
to a uniform temperature of 40°C. Ovens or hotboxes are recommended
methods of heating. Heating bands or blankets should not be used.
