U.V. Curable Materials: Response and its relationship to power levels and lamp spectra

Abstract

Current U. V. processing equipment incorporates multiple power levels and bulbs of differing spectral outputs. This paper investigates the cure responses of different types of inks and coatings when power levels and spectra are varied. The results show that accelerated curing rates and enhanced physical properties can be achieved with careful selection of power levels and spectra.
