Applications

Sterling Color 210 Series is recommended for a variety of coatings and plastics applications including:

  • Paper Coating
  • Aqueous Latex Paints
  • Solvent based Paints
  • Rubber-based Coatings
  • Water Colors
  • Aerosols
  • PVC
  • Natural and Synthetic Rubbers
  • Calendered Fabrics
  • Spread Coated Fabrics

Sterling Color 210 Series is particularly recommended where resistance to strong polar solvents such as ketones, esters, ethers and alcohols or heat are required. 210 Series is also recommended for water based latex systems for improved shelf life. A high clarity vehicle or binder system of a light color and with good wetting properties will give the maximum brightness.

Sterling Color 210 Series is a comprehensive range of fluorescent products, providing high strength color and excellent reliability on a vast array of printing technologies, from traditional Screen to high speed Gravure presses.

Light-fastness

Daylight fluorescent pigmented coatings are stable almost indefinitely under artificial indoor light, and indirect sunlight itself has little or no effect. Direct sunlight, however, frequently causes an initial darkening, followed by a gradual lightening of shade. To optimize stability, it is recommended that formulations that are used for outdoor applications contain the highest technically feasible level of pigmentation of Sterling Color 210 Series. A pigment volume concentration of at least 50% will give the best results.
