Colorful Durability - PLT20 Ink
CHARCTERISTICS: It is a single-component ink. It has a matt appearance and an excellent covering power and is quick drying. Non-toxic ink (NT) in compliance with the EN 71/part 3 European standard.
 
APPLICATIONS: Particularly suited for printing on polypropylene.
 
RESISTANCE: Good resistance to alcohol and perspiration on hand.
 
FLASH POINT: Higher than 43°C.
 
PREPARATION: Mix and strongly dilute the ink by using the PLA thinner in the measure of max. 10-20%. When printing fine details or screened images (e.g. 80/ 120 lines per cm) in warm environments, we recommend you add the PLD retardant in a minimum percentage.
 
WARNING: Excessive dilution generates a loss of the covering power, smudges and an imperfect detachment of the ink from the pad. An insufficient dilution causes problems of drawing the ink from the cliché, printing repeatability and dripping of the ink with a consequent decline of the printing quality.
 
DRYING & HARDENING:
 
The drying time lasts between 1 and 2 minutes at an ambient temperature of about 20°C. If you would like it to dry in only a few seconds, you can use hot air circulation ovens (60-80 b °C) or high temperature spot devices (air or infrared rays) that can be installed on the piece feeding systems (e.g. rotary tables, conveyors, etc.). The ink is completely hardened after 24 hours.
 
RANGE OF COLORS: Consult the COMEC colour chart of matt hues that includes a selection of 14 standard colours plus 3 threecolour shades. All of the colour shades can be mixed with each other. Upon request; special sample colours, metallic gold and silver shades ready for use.
 
ADDITIVES: PLA thinner, PLD retardant, PPLD retardant paste, PLT20/70 transparent base, PP2 adhesion promoter.
 
STORAGE: Lifetime of about 2 years. Conditions for preservation: the package must be sealed tight and put in a dry and cool environment.
