Applications

1

LAROMER UP 35 D
Low yellowing, good chemical resistance and sanding properties.
2

LAROMER PE 55 F
Well balanced properties, leads to a tough film.
3

LAROMER LR 8863
A polyether-modified acrylate oligomer for the formulation of energy curable printing inks and coatings for wood, wood products, paper, and plastic applications.
4

LAROMER PR 9000
Dual-cure resin that combines the advantages of rapid, UV light-initiated polymerization of acrylic ester groups with the UV light-independent polyaddition of the isocyanate groups. By combining two different cross-linking mechanisms within a single molecule, LAROMER PR 9000 provides highly scratch-resistant automotive coatings.
5

LAROMER PO 9026
Unique polyether containing acrylate UV resin with 50% nanosilica particles that offers excellent scratch resistance and good chemical resistance and hardness. LAROMER PO 9026 provides good compatibility to other UV monomers and good adhesion to plastic substrates such as polycarbonate.
6

LAROMER UP 9118
A UV-curable resin developed for cost-effective coatings. It is suitable for use in many furniture and flooring applications. This BPA-free resin is easy to matte and has high chemical resistance properties.
7

LAROMER PR 9119
The substitution of bisphenol A (BPA) in coatings is already required for several applications and will become increasingly important in the future. LAROMER PR 9119 achieves performance levels comparable to conventional epoxy acrylates –offering a powerful alternative to BPA-based coatings.
8

LAROMER TMPTA
An acrylic acid ester that is used as a reactive monomer in energy curable coatings, inks, and overprint varnishes. It contains three polymerizable acrylate groups per molecule, which enables it to form copolymers.
