Printed label with electron beam cured coating

摘要

A preprinted label having an electron beam cured coating is described. The label is especially well suited for application to plastic bottles. The label is formed from a base film of oriented polypropylene on which surface printing is provided. An electron beam curable coating, formed from epoxy acrylate oligomers and acrylate monomers, is applied to the base film and cured using an electron beam.
