Cytec Presents at CPIPC
Innovative Acrylates For Indirect Food Packaging Applications
Woodland Park, NJ – February 10, 2010 - Cytec Industries Inc.
(NYSE: CYT) will present innovative low odor/low extractable
energy curable acrylate resins at the Chicago Printing Ink
Production Club (CPIPC) meeting on February 15th.
For indirect food packaging applications, a major challenge for
ink makers is known to be migration of the resins and additives,
as well as odor and taste transfer issues with respect to food
contents. To respond to these challenges, Cytec has been
developing a specific range of UV/EB curable resins for ink and
overprint varnish applications (EBECRYL ® LEO / low extraction
and odor).
“This product range of low odor/low extractable acrylates, while
responding to a growing market need, is environmentally-friendly
since minimal volatile organic compounds are released during
curing”, says Dr. Mouhcine Kanouni, TS&D Manager Radcure
Americas. “In addition to saving energy when compared to
conventional printing, this product range helps ink makers to
meet the most stringent regulatory requirements. It also it
helps them in creating sustainable change for the food packaging
industry”, he adds.

indirect food packaging applications visit our
