Bayer Highlights UV-Curing Systems

Bayer MaterialScience will present a comprehensive range of
UV-curing systems for coatings applications.  
   Under the theme "VisionWorks with New Brands, New Products,
New Applications" Bayer MaterialScience will demonstrate its
capabilities and expertise in isocyanate backward integration,
and show how it has successfully leveraged on these to develop
high value urethane acrylates. Such acrylates find extensive
applications ranging from anti-abrasion systems for wood, UV
clear coating for block molding compounds, UV coatings for PVC
and PC substrate, UV curable resins for mobile phone
applications, soft feel coatings, and vacuum metallization
panels.
  "Valued for its superior film properties, production
efficiency, and environmental benefits, UV technology is
gaining favor in various industries - these include the
automotive refinishing, wood, flooring, inks, plastics, and
electronics industries, " noted Patrick Alves, UV Coatings
Marketing Manager for Asia Pacific. Bayer MaterialScience
manufactures high-performance UV coating systems using
polyurethane raw materials, as exemplified by the Desmolux (r )
and Bayhydrol UV (r ) product lines.
