Ultraviolet radiation is utilized in many
industrial and commercial processes worldwide to instantly dry and cure
polymers. When polymers such as epoxies,
silicone and polyurethane are exposed to UV radiation, a photochemical reaction
occurs which bonds and seals the polymer within seconds of exposure.
There are many advantages of using UV curing over other
curing methods such as air drying or using chemicals. Air drying polymers leaves the coating
susceptible to contaminants such as dust to affect the quality of the surface
as well as evaporation which can leave an uneven surface and an inconsistent
process. Using chemicals can pose a
health risk to employees and requires purchasing, storing and disposing of
chemicals properly.
UV curing delivers a quick and consistent process which
results in enhanced product durability and strength without evaporation or
contamination.
