Brilliant Soluble Toners for Water Inks (BSTW Series) represent a unique fluorescent color ink system which, although delivered in dry form, is totally water-soluble in the presence of a neutralizer. With the addition of ammonia and alcohol, but without other binder additives, a complete water ink system for flexographic and/or gravure inks can be formulated with incredible ease. Water-based inks made from BSTW exhibit excellent film forming properties, color strength and high gloss. Lightfastness is superior to most solvent-based fluorescent flexographic and gravure inks. It exhibits excellent transparency making it the system of choice for printing on foil and film. This also makes it ideally suited for highlighter inks in felt tip markers. Because of these unique properties, BSTW gives the ink maker an unexcelled flexibility, quality and value when formulating fluorescent water inks.
