Norilux® FastCure 1 can be used as a protective lacquer or hard coat for first surface protection of products manufactured in IMD/FIM technology using PC and PMMA films and for many other applications where resistant surfaces are required.

Applications

In automotive interior, center stacks, touch panels and decorative trims can be first surface protected with Norilux® FastCure 1. Even mobile phone covers, sanitary panels and displays for household appliances can be overprinted with the highly resistant lacquer.

Versions

The glossy version of the dual-cure lacquer Norilux® FastCure 1/001 can be printed on textured film surfaces to produce abrasion resistant and transparent display windows.

The matt version Norilux® FastCure 1/002 can be printed on uncured transparent hard coat PC films to create matt and gloss effects on one printed film.

Besides the high gloss version, various satin gloss, textured and matt grades versions are available. Even rough haptic surface structures can be achieved with single pass screen printing.

The dual-cure screen printing lacquer can be used as well for overprinting UV curing and solvent-based screen printing inks (pretests are necessary) to protect the decoration.

Norilux^® FastCure 1 dries by evaporation of the solvents in jet dryers. Films decorated with Norilux^® FastCure 1 can be 3D formed after box oven drying e.g. by high pressure forming or thermo forming. Afterwards, the formed films must be UV cured. The cured lacquer layer shows excellent resistances to abrasion, chemicals and cleaning agents and passes various creme tests of the automobile industry.
