TECHNOLOGY FOCUS - INORGANIC CHEMISTRY - Preferred Components: The fillers are selected from amorphous silicon dioxide prepared with polyethylene wax, synthetic amorphous silica with organic surface treatment, untreated amorphous silicon dioxide, colloidal silica, acrylated colloidal silica, alumina, zirconia, zinc oxide, niobia, titania aluminum nitride, silver oxide and/or cerium oxides. The pigments are selected from carbon black, rutile titanium dioxide, red oxide pigment, masstone black, light lemon yellow oxide, and transparent yellow oxide.    TECHNOLOGY FOCUS - ORGANIC CHEMISTRY - Preferred Composition: The composition (c1) further comprises (wt.%): a corrosion inhibitor (3); a flow and slip enhancer (3); and a curing booster (0.5). The composition (c1) has been applied to a surface, and by the exposure of coated surface to actinic radiation the surface coating becomes fully cured. Preferred Components: The oligomers are selected from epoxy acrylates, epoxy diacrylate/monomer blends, silicone acrylate, aliphatic urethane triacrylate/monomer blends, fatty acid modified bisphenol A acrylates, bisphenol epoxy acrylates blended with trimethylolpropane triacrylate and/or aliphatic urethane triacrylates blended with 1,6-hexanediol acrylate. The monomers are selected from trimethylolpropane triacrylate, 2-phenoxyethyl acrylate, isobomyl acrylate, propoxylated glyceryl triacrylate, and/or methacrylate ester derivatives (preferably trimethylolpropane triacrylate, 2-phenoxyethyl acrylate and/or methacrylate ester derivatives). The photoinitiators are selected from diphenyl (2,4,6-trimethylbenzoyl)phosphine oxide, thioxanthone, dimethyl ketal, benzophenone, 1-hydroxycyclohexyl phenyl ketone, 2-hydroxy-2-methyl-1-phenyl-propan-1-one, 2,4,6-trimethylbenzophenone, 4-methylbenzophenone, oligo(2-hydroxy-2-methyl-1-(4-(1-methylvinyl)phenyl)propanone) and/or amine acrylates. The filler is alkyl quaternary bentonite. The pigments are selected from organic red pigment, phthalo blue pigment, isoindoline yellow pigment, phthalo green pigment, quinacridone violet, carbazole violet, light organic yellow, diarylide orange, quinacridone red, organic scarlet, light organic red, and deep organic red. The curing booster is thioxanthone.    TECHNOLOGY FOCUS - POLYMERS - Preferred Components: The activated resins are selected from acrylate resins, methacrylate resins, and vinyl resins. The polymerizable pigment dispersions are selected from carbon black attached to modified acrylic resins and/or rutile titanium dioxide attached to modified acrylic resins. The flow and slip enhancer is an acrylated silicone. EXAMPLE - A black coating comprising (%):EBECRYL 264 (RTM: aliphatic urethane triacrylate blended with 1,6-hexanediol acrylate) (approximately 26), 2-phenoxyethyl acrylate (18), propoxylated glyceryl triacrylate (7), isobomyl acrylate (26), EBECRYL 168 (RTM: methacrylate ester derivative) (9), 2-hydroxy-2-methyl-1-phenyl-propan-1-one (6), and a mixture of diphenyl (2,4,6-trimethylbenzoyl) phosphine oxide, oligo (2-hydroxy-2-methyl-1-(4-(1-methylvinyl)phenyl)propanone), 2,4,6,-trimethylbenzophenone, and ESACURE KTO 46 (RTM: 4-methylbenzophenone) (2), PC 9317 (RTM: black pigment dispersion) (4), and amorphous silicon dioxide (2) was prepared by mixing all the components in a conventional mixer with a sawtooth blade or a helical mixer, until a smooth coating was obtained.
