By H.F. Huber, H.-W. Losensky and H. Muller, HüLS AG - RadTech Europe 1989Radiation cure is generally recognized as an attractive technology to replace physical drying of adhesives, coatings and printing inks.Over and above the mere replacement, however, radiation cure may offer significant advantages, which are more or less specific to p

Robert C W Zwanenburg, Craynor - RadTech Europe Conference 1989A range of 23 different monomers, ranging from monofunctional up to penta/hexafunctional, were studied in model formulations based on a bisphenol A epoxy acrylate oligomer. Three different model formulations have been used:one with constant composition, one with a constant acrylic

by Werner Karmann, Beiersdorf AG - RadTech Europe Conference 1989Various types of electron accelerators have been developed for coating purposes. Although they have many common characteristics, there are significant differences of technical origin, especially in the performance range limits. The actual performance requirements a

By C. Decker and K. Moussa, CNRS - RadTech Europe Conference 1989 An original technique, real-time infrared (RTIR) spectroscopy, has been developed to analyse in situ UV curing reactions occurring in a fraction of a second. Cure profiles were directly recorded and the important kinetic parameters were determined quantitatively.T

By R. Stephen Davidson and Susan A Wilkinson - RadTech Conference 1989It has been shown that e.b. curing of acrylates occurs via the attachment of slow electrons to the acrylate groups which subsequently give radical species leading to polymerisation. For epoxy oligomers to be cured by radiation it is advantageous if the formula

By D. J. Kent, Grace GmbH - RadTech Europe Conference 1989The formulation of matt UV-curing coatings using modern matting agents is problematic primarily because of the high-solids nature of these systems.However, it has been shown that through careful formulation, UV-curing lacquers exhibiting good matting characteristics can be ach
