Products in Gravure Printing: Waterborne Ink

HDK® H15 is a synthetic, hydrophobic, amorphous silica produced via flame hydrolysis. It is a white colloidal powder of high purity. HDK® H15 is commonly utilized as a thickening and thixotropic agent in coatings, printing inks, adhesives, cosmetics, and other applications. Additionally, it serves as a reinforcing filler in elastomers, particularly silicone elastomers. Moreover, HDK® H15 functions as a free flow additive in the production of technical powders.

HDK® N20 is a synthetic, hydrophilic, amorphous silica produced through flame hydrolysis. It is a standard product widely used in various industrial applications. This white colloidal powder offers high purity and serves multiple purposes. One of the primary applications of HDK® N20 is as a thickening and thixotropic agent in organic systems such as unsaturated polyesters, coatings, printing inks, adhesives, and cosmetics. Additionally, it functions as a reinforcing filler in elastomers, particularly silicone elastomers.

HDK® H30 is a synthetic, hydrophobic, amorphous silica produced via flame hydrolysis. It is a white colloidal powder of high purity. HDK® H30 finds application as a thickening and thixotropic agent in various industries including coatings, printing inks, adhesives, cosmetics, and others. Additionally, it is utilized as a reinforcing filler in elastomers, specifically silicone-elastomers. Moreover, HDK® H30 acts as a free flow additive in the production of powder coatings.

SPACTIVE® GA 1020 is a dispersion of high molecular weight polysiloxanes in polyalkylene glycol. This defoamer compound has the best price-performance ratio. Its preferred fields of application include: Printing inks: gravure printing inks and flexographic printing inks Overprint varnishes (OPV): high gloss or semi-gloss Let-down

Texicryl® 13-809 is a styrene acrylic emulsion polymer designed for high gloss, water-based overprint varnishes and heat resistant inks. This styrene acrylic binder has been designed to provide superb clarity, water resistance, heat resistance, gloss etc. It can be used as deblocking modifier.

Ottopol K-23 is a cationic acrylic copolymer emulsion used for alkali resistance and adhesion to non-porous substrates. It is designed for use as a grinding and letdown vehicle for water-based flexographic and rotogravure inks. It is also suitable for use as an overprint varnish.

Ottopol 25-50E converts into a low-cost solution polymer for pigment grinding and high-gloss flexo and gravure inks. Belonging to the Ottopol 25 Series, it is specifically designed for use as a grinding and letdown vehicle for water-based rotogravure and flexographic inks. It provides high gloss and excellent press stability. Ink and coating makers will benefit from the versatility of this series as a sole binder or component of high-gloss inks and overlay varnishes. These polymers are derived from the same monomer composition, and the dry resin is identical throughout the series.

Ottopol 25-30 is the ammonia-cut version of Ottopol 25-50E. This solution polymer has good adhesion to non-porous surfaces. Belonging to the Ottopol 25 Series, it is specifically designed for use as a grinding and letdown vehicle for water-based rotogravure and flexographic inks. It provides high gloss and excellent press stability. Ink and coating makers will benefit from the versatility of this series as a sole binder or component of high-gloss inks and overlay varnishes.
