EBECRYL® 50

EBECRYL® 50 is the tetraacrylate ester of 5-mole ethoxylated pentaerythritol. This low-viscosity diluting oligomer is characterized by its low odor and light color. Offering a fast cure response in ultraviolet light (UV) or electron beam (EB)-cured coatings and inks, EBECRYL® 50 stands out for its high reactivity. It plays a dual role by enhancing the hardness and solvent resistance of cured coatings and inks. This product finds particular utility in offset inks, flexo inks, and overprint varnishes. It is a valuable component in radiation-curable coating formulations.

Storage & Handling

Storage and Handling
Care should be taken not to expose the product to high temperature condition 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. See the SDS for the recommended storage temperature range for EBECRYL 50. Please refer to the allnex Guide to Safety and Handling of Acrylate Oligomers and Monomers for additional information on the safe handling of acrylates.
