GENOPOL* TX-2

GENOPOL* TX-2 is a multifunctional thioxanthone derivative for use in UV-curable inks, coatings and adhesives where low migration and low odor are required. It can be used as a replacement for ITX and other thioxanthone derivatives. During the production process of the polymeric GENOPOL* product range, the low molecular weight substances are removed. Therefore, GENOPOL* TX-2 is very low in odor. Combined with the ability to link into the UV cured acrylate matrix, GENOPOL* TX-2 will exhibit extreme low tendency to migrate. This product is used in the following applications: offset inks and varnishes; flexo inks and varnishes; letterpress inks and varnishes; letterpress inks and varnishes; and screen inks and varnishes. GENOPOL*.TX-2 should always be used in combination with GENOPOL*.AB-2.

Printed Electronics Product Flash

Printed electronics is the broad term for a relatively new technology that defines the printing of electronics on common substrates such as paper, plastic, and textile using standard printing processes. The technology is believed to be one of the fastest growing in the world with an estimated USD 300 billion dollar market potential. Common press equipment used in the graphics arts industry, such as screen printing, flexography, gravure, ink-jet and offset lithography are employed.

ACMO

ACMO is an acryloyl morpholine. It is a resin for radically curable inks, coatings and adhesives. The product can be described as having low odor, good abrasion and solvent resistance, water soluble and good adhesion properties. The product improves the adhesion onto various substrates such as PVC, polyolefines, polyester and polystyrene. ACMO can be applied to the following applications: screen inks and varnishes; plastic coatings; laminating adhesives; printed circuit boards; and industrial coatings.

GENOCURE* BAPO

GENOCURE* BAPO is typically used in concentrations from 0.1 to 1.5%. In white pigmented inks and coatings, it is often used in combination with GENOCURE CPK. This product is a phosphine oxide photoinitiator for UV-curable inks, coatings and adhesives. Due to the strong absorption at 370nm GENOCURE* BAPO shows excellent through cure in pigmented systems.

GENOCURE* BDK

GENOCURE* BDK is a benzildimethylketal. It is a photoinitiator for UV-curable inks, coatings and adhesives. Optimum results are obtained in combination with an amine synergist (GENOCURE* MDEA, oligoamines etc.). This product is typically used in offset inks and varnishes, printed circuit boards, glassfiber coating, wood and industrial coating and photo polymers and printing plates.
