Product Description

12011 Modified Acrylate for High-Performance UV Glass Primer Coatings

Glass is one of the most challenging substrates in UV coating applications due to its smooth, non-porous surface and demanding durability requirements. EVER RAY 12011 Modified Acrylate has been developed to address these challenges by delivering excellent adhesion, low shrinkage, and long-term stability under harsh environmental conditions.

Unlike conventional epoxy acrylates, 12011 offers improved interfacial bonding with glass and better resistance to moisture, thermal cycling, and yellowing, making it suitable for both decorative and functional coating systems.

Why Boiling Water Resistance Matters

Modern glass coating systems increasingly require resistance to:

Hot water exposure & Steam environments
Humidity aging & Thermal shock cycles
Household cleaning chemicals

To achieve excellent boil-water resistance, formulators typically combine:

  • High-performance modified acrylate resins
  • Silane coupling agents (1–2% A-174 or A-187 recommended)
  • Optimized photoinitiator packages
  • Optional thermal post-curing processes

Recommended Formulation Strategy

For demanding glass applications, the recommended approach is:

Oligomer & Coupling Agent

Use 12011 Modified Acrylate as the primary oligomer paired with A-174 silane coupling agent at 1–2% dosage.

Curing & Post-Cure

Cure using UV LED at 395 nm, followed by an optional thermal post-cure (100–120°C) for maximum hydrolytic resistance.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What is EVER RAY 12011 and how does it improve glass coating?
EVER RAY 12011 is a modified acrylate oligomer specifically designed to overcome glass adhesion challenges. It improves coatings by providing low curing shrinkage, superior interfacial bonding, and reduced internal stress compared to traditional epoxy acrylates.
How does this product perform under humid or hot water conditions?
It exhibits enhanced boiling water stability and moisture resistance. When paired with appropriate silane coupling agents, it prevents coating delamination even under hot water, steam, and thermal shock conditions.
Which silane coupling agents are compatible with 12011?
It features excellent compatibility with standard silane coupling agents such as A-174 and A-187. A recommended addition level is 1% to 2% to optimize long-term adhesion retention.
What curing systems are compatible with this modified acrylate?
EVER RAY 12011 is versatile and supports both conventional mercury lamp and UV LED curing systems (such as 395 nm). It also supports single UV curing or UV + thermal dual-curing mechanisms.
Is thermal post-curing necessary for this resin?
While single-curing works well for standard applications, an optional thermal post-cure at 100–120°C is highly recommended for applications requiring maximum hydrolytic resistance and strict boiling water test survival.
What are the primary target applications for EVER RAY 12011?
It is widely used in decorative glass coatings, home appliance panels (like kitchen appliances and smart displays), UV glass printing primers, protective industrial coatings, and premium packaging glass.
