<p>Electron beam (EB) radiation curing of inks on game balls, golf balls, as and the like is disclosed inks, logo inks and methods for forming production prints and logos on those balls. To form an EB radiation curable water-insoluble production ink, at least a toughening agent or an adhesion promoting component is added to an ink base, where the component is selected from the group consisting of a carboxylic acid functional monomer, a carboxylic acid functional oligomer, an ester functional monomer, an ester functional oligomer and mixtures thereof, the adhesion promoting component having at least one adhesion promoting functional moiety comprising at least about 2 moles of a carbonyl functionality per mole of the adhesion promoting component and being sufficient to maintain adhesion of the production ink of at least about 75 % of the inked surface to the topcoat, and to the surface of the ball after EB radiation curing and after coating the production ink with the topcoat.</p> |
