Potential applications of SLEA:

  • Curing of materials such as laminates, printing inks, paints, and coatings as well as transparent films.
  • Sterilization of food packaging materials.
  • Curing of wooden materials.
  • Manufacturing of heat shrink film.
  • EB curable silicone coatings products for a wide variety of paper and film applications.
  • Surface Irradiation of fruits, vegetables, cut-flowers, seeds etc
