Features & Benefits

Features
  • For water and non polar based formulations, Radglo® JST has the highest color strength.
  • Also available in a 50% water dispersion: Radglo® WR.
  • PC-88 Purple and PC-29 Blue can complete your color portfolio.
  • For aqueous formulations, the use of preservatives is recommended. The right preservative package (combination of bactericides and fungicides) should provide reliable, highly effective control of microorganisms in the intended formulation.
  • Limited lightfastness in exterior exposure due to the chemical structure of the fluorescent pigments.

Applications & Uses

Compatible Substrates & Surfaces
Applications
  • Aqueous paper coating, water and non polar solvent based paints, textile printing inks (screen, flexo and gravure).
