- Product Highlights
DayGlo SPL-N Dispersions are based on a unique formaldehyde-free pigment technology. This product offers a bright, sub-micron, high strength, fluorescent pigment particle with good
lightfastness properties. The SPL-N Dispersions are suspended in water and suitable for use in water based inks and coatings.
Applications & Uses
- Applications
- Compatible Substrates & Surfaces
- Coating Type
- Ink & Toner Type
- Viscosity Control
Formulations based on SPL-N Dispersions are designed to be thinned with water only. Formulations may tolerate small quantities of alcohols but levels should be kept below 5%. Testing should be conducted when solvents are used to determine their affects on the final application formulas.
Viscosity can be increased with the use of Joncryl 142 or a similar product. The addition of 5% of Joncryl 142 will increase viscosity approximately 20 seconds/#2 Zahn cup. Testing should be conduct with each thickener to determine their affects on the final application formulas.
