Tag: Ink Curing

UV light curing is the process of altering the properties of polymers, or photopolymers which refers to polymers that undergo changes to their molecular structure when exposed to light.  UV light emits invisible electromagnetic radiation, causing a change in properties to photopolymers. UV light will cause a photopolymer, which are …

UV Ink Curing Systems are specialty machines and equipment that use UV light to cure inks, adhesives or coatings onto various substrates.  When UV light is used at the proper wavelength, or nanometer (nm), and exposed to the specialty inks or coatings, a photochemical reaction occurs instantly drying the ink.  …

UV Glue Curing Provides Unbreakable Liquid Plastic Bond Referred to as liquid glue, UV glue curing is a superior bonding method although this is really a polymer, rather than a glue.  This polymer is often in a silicon glue form, an epoxy, polyurethane, or other polymer that will dry clear …

UV adhesive curing is recognized as one of the most advantageous methods for quickly curing adhesives, offering powerful benefits with seemingly endless applications.  UV light is a form of electromagnetic radiation that can be broken down into various wavelengths between 10 and 400 nanometers, commonly referred to as UVA, UVB, …

The process of UV ink curing has been around since the 1960’s and uses high intensity ultraviolet light to create a photochemical reaction. By using the proper intensity of UV wavelengths, a byproduct is produced that hardens resin and dries inks. It offers numerous advantages over traditional heat-cured systems and …
