Description
There is no universal printing ink suited to all types of substrates. Most printing inks become tacky and more compact during prolonged storage. Therefore every printer needs suitable aids to match ink consistency to individual requirements.
Description:
What to do if the ink is
– too thick or tacky
– picks
– coagulates
– prints poor solids
– is too concentrated
– transfers poorly off rollers?
Matching inks to individual needs must be possible … – but avoiding loss of contrast – without affecting drying properties in evaporation or absorption.
COLOR THIX meets these requirements and thus is the ideal medium to adapt inks to the needs of printing substrates to specific demands.
Advantages:
– problem free mixing, even in the ink duct – reduces tack without making inks thin – no loss of contrast when adding up to 3 percent volume – improves ink travel off rollers – enables printing of smooth solids even on poor quality stock – allows printing at top machine speed – prevents curling of lightweight paper in the delivery – overcomes the chalking problems caused by a shortage of pigment binding medium, on the printed sheet, when using modern quick setting inks.
Recommended dosage:
3 – 5 %, even higher dosages up to 10 % are considered as absolutely safe. With a dosage of over 10 % we recommend to add a siccative.
