Applications
|
KEYCURE 8028 may be used alone in combination with other suitable photoinitiators (such as Chemacure PI-184 PI 6022) fUV curable inks varnishes fapplications on paper, wood, metal plastic materials. Its high absorbance makes it especially suitable fUV curable inks pigmented coatings.
KEYCURE 8028 is particularly indicated fthe photopolymerisation of UV curable systems when high reactivity, low curing odour low yellowing are required.
KEYCURE 8028 recommended concentration: 0.1-7.0%
