UV curable formulated products include coatings, inks, adhesives, and others. These products are generally composed of a base resin (oligomers) formulated with monomers, additives, and photoinitiators. Oligomers have moderately low molecular weight and impart most of the basic properties to the UV curing formulations. Reactive monomers are primarily used in a formulation as reactive diluents and crosslinking agents to modify the properties of oligomers. The UV curing process describes the use of UV or visible light to polymerize a combination of oligomers and monomers onto a substrate. Subsequently, the UV material can be formulated into coatings, printing inks, adhesives, or other products. The process is also called radiation curing as UV light is used as a radiant energy source. Energy sources that are typically used for UV cure include pulsed xenon lamps, medium pressure mercury lamps, light-emitting diodes (LEDs), and lasers. ___________ 1.
