In the nail art industry, UV LED nail art lamps are an important tool for manicurists, and their performance is directly related to the effect of nail art curing. Power is one of the key parameters of UV LED nail art lamps, and it has a particularly significant impact on the curing effect.
Relationship between power and curing speed
The power of the UV LED nail lamp directly determines the intensity of the ultraviolet light it emits. The higher the power, the greater the intensity of UV light. The photosensitive components in the nail glue can absorb more energy, thus accelerating the chemical reaction and achieving rapid curing. Although high power can help increase cure speed, it is not always better. Excessive power may cause the surface layer of the nail glue to solidify quickly, forming a hard shell, while the internal glue layer fails to fully solidify, which will directly affect the adhesive strength of the nail polish and increase the risk of falling off or cracking.
Relatively speaking, if the power is too low, the UV light intensity will be insufficient, unable to provide enough energy for the nail glue, the curing speed will be slow, and the curing may even be incomplete. This will not only affect the durability of the manicure, but may also cause problems such as uneven surface and uneven color, affecting the overall beauty. Therefore, it is crucial to select the appropriate power to ensure rapid curing while ensuring complete curing of the nail glue to avoid surface hardening or insufficient internal curing.
Balance of power and cure depth
The curing depth is an important indicator for evaluating the curing effect of nail art. It refers to the depth of the nail glue that is completely cured from the surface to the inside under ultraviolet light irradiation. The level of power has a direct impact on the curing depth. Although high power can provide strong UV light, if it is too high, it may cause the surface glue layer to solidify quickly and form a hard shell, which prevents UV light from further penetrating into the internal glue layer. In this case, the internal adhesive layer is not fully cured and the curing depth is insufficient, thus affecting the strength and durability of the nail art.
On the contrary, when the power is too low, the intensity of the ultraviolet light is insufficient, the penetration is weakened, and the curing depth is also limited, which may cause the internal adhesive layer to fail to fully solidify, causing problems such as stickiness and easy deformation, thus affecting the overall quality and appearance of the manicure. . Therefore, the power adjustment of the UV LED nail lamp needs to ensure the curing depth while avoiding the formation of a hard shell or insufficient curing.
