PROCESSING
To increase mechanical and chemical resistance or adhesion to the substrate, the ink can be used as a two-component by adding the appropriate catalyst PL-GL500 in the 5% quantity. Mix and strongly dilute the ink by using the PL017 thinner in the measure of max. 15-30%.
CAUTION!
Excessive dilution generates a loss of opacity, smudges and an imperfect detachment of the ink from the pad. Poor dilution generates problems in drawing the ink out of the cliche, repetitiveness of printing and spinning of the ink itself with consequent expiry of the print quality. The ink used as a bicomponent should be consumed within 8-9 hours, after which it gradually loses its mechanical-chemical resistance and its ability to adhere to the substrate.
DRYING AND HARDENING
Drying with UV equipment between 1000 and 2000 mj/cm^2.
