WHAT IS UV BOARD ?

Nowadays, there is a wide variety of decorative panels on the market, such as EB four resistant panels, PET decorative panels, acrylic decorative panels, UV board, melamine panels, technology wood veneer panels, and so on; How can consumers choose and distinguish various decorative boards with their own characteristics? Today, the editor will elaborate on the UV board in the decorative board.

一： What is a UV board?

UV board refers to a composite material board that uses UV curing technology as a surface treatment technology. It is sprayed with specialized UV paint on various boards through professional equipment, and then dried by a UV curing machine to form a surface layer with a protective layer. Such a type of board can be called UV board.

UV board is a type of board whose surface is protected by UV treatment, and UV coating is a UV curing coating, also known as photoinitiator coating. The board made by applying UV coating on particleboard, medium density fiberboard, and other boards, and then drying them with a UV curing machine, due to its easy processing, bright color, wear resistance, strong chemical resistance, long service life, high requirements for mechanical equipment and technology, can achieve industrial production, as well as moisture-proof and deformation resistant properties. The surface treatment can be used for high gloss or skin matte, making it an ideal decorative board.

二： UV board processing process flow:

1. Material selection → 2. Coating transparent sealing layer at the bottom of the board → 3. Repair → 4. Coating the first layer of primer on the board surface → 5. UV curing → 6. Polishing → 7. Coating the second layer of primer on the board surface → 8. UV curing → 9. Polishing → 10. Coating the first layer of topcoat → 11. UV curing → 12. Polishing → 13. Coating the second layer of topcoat → 14. UV curing → 15. Polishing → 16. Coating the third layer of topcoat → 17. UV curing → 18. Inspection and acceptance → 19. Packaging of protective film.

三： What are the advantages and disadvantages of UV boards?

UV panels can resist the corrosion of acid and alkali disinfectants, making them more environmentally friendly than paint panels. The reason why UV panels have these characteristics is that due to the chemical reaction between the coating and ultraviolet radiation, a dense protective film is formed. The molecular spacing of this dense protective film is very small, smaller than that of water molecules and acetic acid molecules, therefore it has waterproof and anti fouling effects. However, white ultraviolet panels are prone to yellowing under sunlight, so their resistance to yellowing is not ideal.
