Described herein are polymeric aminoacrylates formed by the reaction of polyalkylene glycol diacrylates with bireactive amines. The polymeric aminoacrylate are comprised of moieties of poly(alkylene glycol) diacrylate and moieties of bireactive amines. Also described herein are energy curable ink and coating compositions that include the described polymeric aminoacrylates. The energy curable ink and coating compositions that include the described polymeric aminoacrylates are well-suited for use in packaging applications where low migration of uncured monomer material after cure is desired, such as in the packaging of foodstuffs, pharmaceuticals, etc.

Polymeric aminoacrylates

A liquid resin, which is the Michael addition product of an amine-terminated aminoamide thermoplastic polymer with one or more polyol ester compounds having at least one (meth)acrylate group, wherein the amine-terminated aminoamide thermoplastic polymer contains a bisphenol or novolac segment to provide increased hardness and improved flow of radiation-curable compositions incorporating such resins, methods of printing using such compositions and articles printed with such compositions.
