Disclosed is a solvent-free wire enamel cement coat which is curable to the B-stage with ultraviolet light. The wire can then be formed into a coil and cured with heat to the C-stage. The cement coat composition comprises a mixture of a UV photosensitizer and a curing agent with either an acrylated epoxy or an amine terminated acrylated epoxy or an acrylated urethane, or mixtures thereof, all dissolved in a monoacrylate. The composition can also include an end-blocked urethane, an acrylated hexamethoxymethyl melamine, or a low molecular weight cresol formaldehyde resin. |
