EBECRYL® 4900 is a tin-free aliphatic hydroxyl-functional urethane acrylate oligomer thoughtfully diluted in 40% butyl acetate. When paired with NCO functional compounds like EBECRYL® 4950, it proves to be exceptionally well-suited for deep-draw thermoformable coatings, exhibiting high elongation properties post-thermal curing and subsequent UV curing. Its outstanding performance extends to chemical and stain resistance, hardness, and abrasion resistance. EBECRYL® 4900 finds application in radiation-curable coatings, particularly in areas such as automotive OEM coatings, industrial coatings, and metal coatings, showcasing its versatility and reliability in various end uses.

Suggested Applications

EBECRYL® 4900 can be combined with NCO-bearing resins for theformulation of UV coatings cured by the dual-cure process (UV-inducedpolymerization and NCO/OH reaction).

After flash-off, radiation cureand/or thermal cure may occur sequentially or concurrently. Either theradiation cure or thermal cure may occur first.

Coatings first subjected toradiation followed by a thermal curing typically may be used for coating 3D parts.

Alternatively, coating that are first thermally crosslinked and further down stream cured with UV radiation allows intermediate processing of the coated articles as used in thermoforming applications.

Deep draw thermoforming coatings can be obtained in combination with NCO functional binder EBECRYL® 4950.
