Suggested Applications

EBECRYL® 4740 is used in the formulation of radiation-curing coatings (UV andelectron beam) for the coating of wood, plastics and mineral substrates via the roller, spray and curtain coating processes. Due to the elastic properties of EBECRYL® 4740 the product is especially suitable for coatings on flexiblesubstrates or as an additional binder to modify the elasticity of radiation curing coatings.

Storage & Handling

Storage and Handling
Care should be taken not to expose the product to high temperature condition 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. See the SDS for the recommended storage temperature range for EBECRYL 474. Please refer to the allnex Guide to Safety and Handling of Acrylate Oligomers and Monomers for additional information on the safe handling of acrylates.
