TYTANâ„¢TM AP910 is an ethyl citrate zirconium that can be formulated as an adhesion promoter for printing inks, a crosslinker for paints, as well as a catalyst for esterification. Due to its proprietary chelated structure, TYTANâ„¢ AP910 shows a delayed reaction at ambient temperature and thus facilitates the storage stability of inks. Compared with organo-titanate adhesion promoters, it shows good compatibility with PVB, CAB, and CAP inks and provides minimal discoloration during the sterilizing process in the printing of milk pouches.
