Products in Industrial Manufacturing: Radiation Curable Ink

Esacure ONE is a difunctional alpha-hydroxy ketone photoinitiator. It is a highly reactive difunctional photoinitiator particularly suitable for clear systems. Due to its molecular structure it is particularly suitable for all systems where low VOC, low migration and low extraction values are needed (food packaging).

Esacure KT 55 is a liquid mixture of Esacure TZT (50%) and Esacure KIP 150 (50%). IT is used in combination with a co initiator and is particularly suitable when high reactivity and low yellowing are required.

Omnipol 910 is a polymeric Type I photoinitiator, based on piperazino based compounds of the aminoalkylphenone photoinitiator class. The low level of photolysis product migration and low odor, make the product suitable for use in demanding applications such as food packaging inks. The strong UV Chromophore in the UV-B region makes the Omnipol 910 particularly useful in pigmented printing inks.

PHOTOMER® 5006 is a low viscosity, amine synergist with medium amine content. A co-polymerizable tertiary amine PHOTOMER® 5006 is used as a highly efficient co-initiator. In combination with UV acrylates it accelerates the cure of UV systems.

PHOTOMER® 5930 is a tetra functional amine modified polyether acrylate used in UV/EB applications.

Omnirad EDB is a highly efficient tertiary amine synergist which, when used in conjunction with Type II photoinitiators generates free radicals that initiate radical polymerization of unsaturated oligomers e.g. acrylates after exposure to UV light. It can be used in combination with mono or multi functional monomers as reactive diluents.

Esacure KIP 100F is a liquid mixture of Esacure KIP 150 (70% ) and Omnirad 1173 (30%) and is particularly recommended for high reactivity, low odor and color stability.

Omnirad 4265 is a highly effective liquid photoinitiator blend, used for UV-polymerisation of suitable resins. Omnirad 4265 is easily incorporated into waterborne formulations.

PHOTOMER® 4703 is a proprietary UV/EB curable monoacrylate with low viscosity. It is designed for use in laminating adhesives, etch-resist inks for printed circuit boards, negative photoresists and OPV's for paper and films.

Omnirad BDK is a highly efficient, type I photoinitiator used to initiate radical polymerization of unsaturated oligomers e.g. acrylates after exposure to UV light. It can be used in combination with mono or multi-functional monomers as reactive diluents.

Omnirad MBF is a highly efficient, liquid, Type II photoinitiator used to initiate radical polymerization of unsaturated oligomers e.g. acrylates, after exposure to UV light. It forms free radicals through an intramolecular hydrogen abstraction process. The use of amines is not recommended as this may lead to efficiency decrease, stability upon storage issues or stronger odor. It can be used in combination with mono or multi functional monomers as reactive diluents

Esacure KIP 75 LT is a liquid mixture of Esacure KIP 150 (75%) and Tripropyleneglycoldiacrylate(25%). It is an oligomeric polyfunctional α-hydroxyketone characterized by high reactivity and non-yellowing properties. It is particularly recommended when low odor is a required characteristic.

Esacure TZM is a liquid mixture of Benzophenone (50%) and 4-Methylbenzophenone (50%). It is particularly indicated for the photopolymerisation of UV curable systems when high reactivity, low curing odor and low yellowing are required. The radical generation occurs via hydrogen abstraction by the action of a co-initiator such as tertiary amines.

Esacure TZT is particularly indicated for the photo polymerisation of UV curable systems when high reactivity, low curing odor and low yellowing are required. The radical generation occurs via hydrogen abstraction by the action of a co-initiator such as tertiary amines.

Omnirad BCIM is a versatile highly effective photoinitiator for UV polymerisation of mono- or multifunctional (acrylate-) monomers.

Omnirad 4PBZ is an effective Type II photoinitiator used to initiate radical polymerization of unsaturated oligomers e.g. acrylates after exposure to UV light.

CoatOSil™ 7001 copolymer is an additive for improved flow and leveling of solventborne two-component acrylic-polyol isocyanate cured coatings. When CoatOSil™ 7001 copolymer is incorporated as a flow and leveling additive, the appearance and distinctness of image (DOI) of the clearcoat is typically excellent, compared to current commercial additives used in the fomulations discussed.

Esacure 1187 is a modified sulphonium salt hexafluorophosphate diluted in 25% propylene carbonate, which does not release any benzene upon cure.

Omnirad 369 is a highly efficient UV-curing agent used to initiate the photo polymerization of chemically unsaturated prepolymers – e.g., acrylates – in combination with mono- or multifunctional monomers.

Omnipol ASA is a liquid polymeric amine synergist specifically designed for use in inks requiring low migration and low volatility. It is particularly suited to use in combination with low migration Type II photoinitiators as Omnipol BP and TX.

Esacure KIP 150 is an oligomeric polyfunctional α-hydroxyketone characterized by high reactivity and non-yellowing properties. It is particularly recommended when low VOC, low odor and low yellowing are required characteristic.

Omnirad 4MBZ Flakes is an effective Type II photoinitiator used, in combination with tertiary amine synergists, to initiate radical polymerization of unsaturated oligomers e.g. acrylates after exposure to UV light.

Omnirad ITX is a highly effective type II photoinitiator used, in combination with tertiary amine synergists to, initiate radical polymerization of unsaturated oligomers e.g. acrylates, after exposure to UV light. It can be used in combination with mono or multi functional monomers as reactive diluents.

Esacure KIP IT is a liquid mixture of Esacure KIP 150 (65% ) and Propoxylated glycerol triacrylate (35%). It is by high reactivity and non-yellowing properties. It is particularly recommended when low odor and low yellowing are required characteristics
