Applications

• Tytan AP20 however is more user-friendly as the addition of the ethanol strongly reduces the pour point and as such the possibility for crystallization at low to normal temperatures.
• Tytan AP20 can only be used in solvent based inks and coatings.

Suitability

• Flexographic/Gravure
• NC/PA and NC/PU inks
• Flexible packaging film
