Ultraviolet (UV) radiation causes a photochemical
reaction to occur when exposed to certain polymers such as epoxies,
polyurethane and silicone glue, which instantly dries and cures the polymer.
This photochemical reaction occurs quickly, in a matter of seconds upon
exposure to the specialty
UV lamps.
Benefits of UV
Curing
There are many benefits provided with UV curing when
compared to other methods such as air drying and application of chemical
solutions. UV curing offers the fastest cure time over these other methods,
improving cycle times and product throughput.
Companies that utilize UV curing in their process experience an increase
in productivity and profitability.
UV radiation also improves the quality of products
with a stronger, more durable bond. With instant curing, there is no time for
evaporation which occurs with air drying leaving an uneven and often
contaminated surface. UV lamps drastically improve product quality while
increasing productivity.
With UV lamps for curing, there is no need to purchase
and store harmful chemicals, offering a safer work environment for
employees. UV curing lamps provide many
cost-saving benefits with very low maintenance.
