Marabu UV-B5 is a UV curing accelerator (photoinitiator) for UV-curable screen printing inks. It is added to UV inks at 0.5–2% when faster UV curing is required and when improved adhesion to the substrate is needed due to deeper curing.

UV-B5 does not cause yellowing, making it suitable for white inks and varnishes. It has no pot life limitation, allowing the prepared ink mixture to be used without time restrictions.

Packaging: 0.1 L
