- Benefits
- Formaldehyde-free: Environmentally conscious
- Rapid cure: No need for elevated temperatures or extended curing time
- Effective with all commonly used binders: Starch, CMC, casein, proteins, carboxylated latex, dextrin, styrene acrylic, PVOH, etc.
- Improved printability: Achieved through optimal water resistance, an open coating structure, reduction of contact angle and uniform distribution of binders throughout the coating reducing mottle
- No adverse effects on optical properties: No time or heat exposure yellowing
