New Additives for Radiation-Curable Systems

摘要

Radiation curing, an innovative and rapidly growing technology, is used in markets such as graphic arts (including overprint varnishes and inks), coatings (including wood and general industrial coatings), and adhesives and electronics. The technology is mainly characterized by its instant curing within seconds or even less, which permits high rates of production. In addition to high productivity, other benefits of the process include space saving, waste reduction and low-temperature treatment. Moreover, radiation curing is associated with ecological benefits such as low emissions and energy consumption.
