UV curable PSA systems have been available for several years. Since this time the interest
in the market has grown steadily, but slowly. There appears to be various reasons for the
reluctance to adopt this technology on a wider scale. Certainly, the limited range of raw materials
and generally higher prices compared to conventional PSA materials, has been a limiting
factor in the growth. However, continuing interest from end users lead us to believe that
there are opportunities for UV curable PSA's. Of particular interest are speciality applications
demanding high temperature stability and solvent resistance. But it is important to understand,
where the advantages of UV curable PSA's can be found and how to handle them in
the most efficient way. It was the second point which was the focus for this comprehensive
study; investigating the relationships between the performance of UV PSA's and the UV curing
conditions.
