Technical Details & Test Data
- Press Performance
Sheetfed offset inks made from the STARFIRE II Bases have been run on high speed sheetfed presses at 9,000-12,000 impressions per hour and are capable of much higher press speeds with excellent performance characteristics. Excellent tack stability, anti-emulsification properties, faster setting and excellent drying characteristics are to be expected from inks formulated from StarFire II Bases.
