GENOMER* 3486

GENOMER* 3486 polyester acrylate resin for UV/EB curable coatings, inks, adhesives and 3D printing applications. GENOMER* 3486 allows a reduction of the monomer content in the final formulation due to its low viscosity. The product shows potential to be used in food packaging applications. The good pigment wetting makes this product an ideal candidate for pigment grinding.

• Very low viscosity and low yellowing
• Good chemical resistance and adhesion
• Good surface hardness and wear resistance
• Good pigment wetting and cure response

GENOMER* 3143 & GENOMER* 4293 compliant with IKEA regulations

Not the Emmys or the Oscars, but our two new biobased products GENOMER* 3143 & GENOMER* 4293 have been accepted 'compliant to IKEA regulations'. We are proud that this standard could have been achieved with our new developments.

The year 2021 so far, has also brought for RAHN a successful ISO 9001 review and an updated Ecovadis evaluation, where RAHN achieved bronze rating, awarded in recognition of sustainability achievement. 

Do you already use an excimer lamp?

Have you always wanted to know about the formulation of UV curable acrylate-based systems for curing with excimer lamps?

Then tune into the online presentation of Dr. Volker Petry, Head of Application EnergyCuring Europe RadLab AG, to learn which resins and reactive diluents to select in order to achieve a low gloss of UV-curable formulations and about specific features including photoinitiator choices, cure speed, film thickness, oxygen level and additives to increase matting.

Want to make your 3D printing even more sustainable?

3D Printing is a rapidly growing industry and end-users are seeking oligomers that offer exceptional strength, stiffness and toughness, together with excellent impact-resistance properties. While formulating with existing products can sometimes achieve these goals, the products used tend to be traditional fossil fuel based. As sustainability is gaining importance raw material suppliers need new innovative products to achieve ultimate performance in a sustainable manner. Here we evaluate the use of several new bio-renewable oligomers for 3D printing and additive manufacturing.
