EBECRYL® 7110 is an acrylated amine primarily employed as a hydrogen donor or photoactivator in ultraviolet light (UV)-curable coatings and inks. When combined with a photosensitizer like benzophenone, it facilitates a rapid UV cure response in the presence of air by counteracting the inhibitory effects of oxygen at the surface of the coating or ink. This compound also enhances adhesion to plastic substrates and lowers viscosity when utilized as a primary component in UV adhesives and coatings. It finds applications in various end uses, including inkjet ink, radiation-curable coatings, flexography ink, and varnishes.

Functions: Photoinitiator

End Uses: Flexography Ink, Inkjet Ink, Radiation Curable Coating, Varnishes

Features & Benefits

Performance Highlights

EBECRYL 7110 is characterized by:
• Low color
• Moderate viscosity
• Improved stability vs. conventional tertiary amines
• Excellent pigment wetting                                                                                                  
UV/EB cured products based on EBECRYL 7110 are characterized by the following performance properties:
• Excellent UV cure response
• Reduced odor
• Improved moisture resistance
• No surface migration of amine
• High gloss
• Good adhesion to plastics (e.g. treated polyester, ABS, polycarbonate and
polyphenylene oxide)                                                                                                             
The final properties of UV/EB cured products also depend on the selection of the 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.
