Colorful Durability - PLT15 Ink
CHARCTERISTICS: PLT15 ink is a single-component series ink that can also be used as a two-component. It is a quick drying ink with an opaque look and excellent coverage.
 
APPLICATIONS: Particularly suited for printing on PE-PP, PMMA, PS, ABS, SAN, PVC.
 
RESISTANCE: PLT15 has good resistance to alcohol, greases and petrol and hand perspiration.
 
FLASH POINT: Above 43 degrees C.
 
PREPARATION: Thin and mix well the PLT15 ink with PLTA Thinner in a portion of 10-20% max.
 
WARNING: An excessive dilution causes a loss of coverage, smudges and incomplete ink detachment from the pad. A poor dilution may cause problems withdrawing ink from the cliché obtaining a repetitive print quality and avoiding the "dripping" of the same ink with lower print quality. If the achievement of the major mechanical or chemical resistance or higher adhesion is required, the ink can be used as a two-component ink. In this case mix the ink with PLT4H in a ratio of 10 parts ink to 1 part hardener.
 
WARNING: The life of the mixed ink is 8-10 hours after which the mechanical-chemical resistance and adhesion decrease. This is also dependent on room temperature and ratio of solvent. Drying and Hardening:Generally the following drying times are applicable:
  • Hand drying at 68 degrees F: Approx. 1 - 2 minutes
  • Curing at 68 degrees F: Approx. 30 seconds
  • Hand drying at 175 degrees F: Approx. 30 seconds
  • Curing at 175 degrees F: Approx. 15 seconds
  • The final hardening of the ink is obtained after 5 days.
RANGE OF COLORS: PLT15 is available in 15 standard shades as well as 3 transparent, four-color process shades. PLT15 inks are adjusted for printing with PLTA Thinner, PLTCAN Fast Thinner, and PLT4D Retarder for printing fine detail.
 
HALF TONE: PLT15 inks are available in transparent colors PLT15 #180 Yellow.
 
PRINTING: PLT15#181 Magenta, and PLT15 #182 Cyan.
 
STORAGE: PLT15 has a shelf life of about 2 years. Storage containers should be sealed and placed in a cool and dry place.
