Contact allergens in ultraviolet-cured acrylic resin systems.
Ultraviolet-cured acrylic resin systems expose the worker to an ultraviolet reactive prepolymer, multifunctional acrylate esters, and a photoinitiator system. Irritation occurs primarily with exposure to the acrylate compounds and increases with an increased number of acrylic double bonds, decreased viscosity, and the presence of hydrophilic groups. It is recommended that sensitive individuals handle these materials with nitrile gloves, but acrylics have been known to penetrate even this form of protection.
