Cytec launches innovative UV curable Polyurethane Dispersion for pigmented spray coatings                                                         

UCECOAT® 7699 is an aliphatic UV curable polyurethane dispersion (PUD), especially designed for high end wooden furniture top coats. Due to its outstanding benefits compared to traditional UV-PUDs, this unique material is particularly recommended for pigmented coatings.
It can, however, also be used for clear coatings and other applications and substrates.

The product exhibits a low viscosity level and can therefore easily be applied by spray or curtain coaters. It shows an outstanding hardness and scratch resistance, as well as an exceptional stain resistance. Furthermore UCECOAT® 7699 is characterized by its excellent stability and high reactivity in both pigmented and clear systems. These features make it the ideal choice for thick pigmented top coat applications.

Cytec at the European Coatings Conference for Parquet Coatings                                                                                        

At the 5th edition of the European Coatings conference for Parquet Coatings we invite you to join our presentation about the “State of the art of radiation curable coatings for high performance pre-finished parquet”.

Date : November 6th, 2008
10.45 am to 11.15 am
Speaker : Dr. Xavier Deruyttere, TS&D Cytec

Abstract :

“State of the art of radiation curable coatings for high performance pre-finished parquet”
For more than 20 years, parquet coatings have largely adopted radiation curing technology, with all of its benefits: high speed of curing, low space requirements, excellent coating performance, ease of application, and above all, it is a solvent free technology. Over the years, the product portfolio for parquet finishing has grown to a broad range of products, 100% UV as well as waterbased UV; with primers showing excellent "anfeuerung", high abrasion resistance sealers and topcoats with superior scratch resistance. All of this, also including new phosphorous modified binders, developed for upcoming legislation on flame retardancy, are covered in this presentation.

The Conference will be held on November 6th and 7th at the Holiday Inn Berlin-City West in Berlin.

EBECRYL® 3300 – A new solution for metal coatings

EBECRYL® 3300 is a new specially designed epoxy acrylate, particularly suitable as main oligomer in UV curable coatings for metal applications.

It provides outstanding adhesion onto metal substrates and excellent corrosion resistance, while offering a good compromise between flexibility and hardness.
EBECRYL® 3300 brings high reactivity in combination with an improved storage stability (when mixed with acidic adhesion promoters such as EBECRYL® 168).

Typical target applications include clear and pigmented coatings for metal pipes & tubes, automotive underhood parts, and more in general 3D metallic pieces.
