What is radiation curing
Radiation curing is the unique technology allowing polymerisation or crosslinking of reactive substrates with low or no evolution of volatile organic compounds (VOC). UV curing in particular is suitable to improve the quality of finished products saving time, energy and space.
UV curing can be used in several application areas such as:
  • Coating: wood, plastic, paper, optical fibres
  • Inks: gravure, flexo, litho, screen, offset
  • Adhesives: pressure-sensitive, laminating
  • Printing plates
  • Photo resists
  • Electronics
Lamberti has been involved in photoinitiators for radiation curing since the 1970s, with the production and introduction into the market of Esacure® KB 1 and Esacure ® EB 3. Lamberti has a broad range of photoinitiators for UV radical curing with a complete balance of surface and through cure characteristics.
