UV clear coat systems for overcoating UV inkjet inks Digitally printed surfaces require a finishing coat to protect them against both the elements and mechanical loads. The excellent adhesion of the overcoated coating system to individual inkjet inks, as well as to substrates and primers, poses the greatest challenge here. We have specifically adapted FREODUR UV- Clearcoat ES1939GRA999 to this requirement. FREODUR UV-Clearcoat ES1939GRA999 can be applied on top of metal surfaces that have been primed in various ways. IT has excellent adhesion properties on the following substrates: ■ FREOPOX...

Optimum properties for the overall system coating structure are achieved by precisely matching every coating and inkjet ink. A great deal of attention should be paid to choosing the right UV inkjet inks here. Areas of application for our UV-curable coatings span all areas of two-dimensional metal panel coating, e.g. wall and display coating. Examples for UV coating systems: Sanitary installations, e.g. in discos The coatings are applied using a spray gun or roller. UV coating systems offer users various advantages: ■ Low emissions, 100% solids content ■ Short curing times, high productivity ■...

UV coating systems: a real alternative! The pressure that legislation is placing on users of solvent-based coating systems is always on the rise, which is why the use of environmentally friendly coating systems is increasingly coming to the fore. UV coating systems are a great alternative here. They are distinguished by very short curing times combined with very high productivity, fewer emissions and excellent mechanical resistance. Radiation sources that emit ultraviolet light are used to dry the coatings. After a short burst of high-energy radiation, the UV coating systems are cured and the...
