Cure & Adhesion Promoter

All Series

Up to 10%

Increases Cure & Adhesion Promoter 

Pot life is 6-8 hours depending on the perecentage used. 

Cure Adhesion & Matting

88 Series

Up to 10%

Increases cure adhesion & matting 

May increase color strength and opacity

Water Resistant Adhesion Promoter

All Series 

Up to 3%

Increases adhesion to various substrates. Increases water resistance. Chemical reaction requires a 24-hour post-cure to achieve adhesion properties.

Pot life is 6-8 hours depending on percentage used.

Metal Adhesion Modifier

80 Series 

.5% - 2%

Increases adhesion to various metal materials. Useful when die-cutting to a bleed edge. 

MET-079 will increase the ink viscosity and ink film deposit. It will descrease the cure rate, pot life, and intercoat adhesion. Must ship as Hazardous Material. Addiotional freight charges will apply and are the responsibilty of the client.

Plasticized Vinyl Adhesion Promoter

02, 04, 80, VL, UV9, and XL6  Do not use on Polycarbonate

2%-5% Up to 7% if only printing one color

Increases substrate compatibility. Improves wetting characteristics. May eliminate the need to wipe substrates. reduces bubbles and increases adhesion and cure rate. 

Amine- NOT FOR POLYCARBONATE Loss of intercoat adhesion 

Polycarbonate Adhesion Promoter

02, 04, MSK, and 80

1% - 5%

The 078 will enhance adhesion and cure rates. It is most useful for accelerating production speeds, particularly when processing heat sensitive materials that are susceptible to distortion.

RECCOMENDED FOR POLYCARBONATE MATERIALS Must ship as hazardous material. Additional freight charges will apply and are the responsibilty of the client. 

Adhesion Promoter

All Series Except PPC-7 Do not use on Polycarbonate

.5% - 1%

Increases cure speed and adhesion

NOT RECCOMENDED FOR POLYCARBOONATE. May affect ink visocsity over time. Monitor intercoat adhesion. Only mix enough for 2-4 hours of use

Adhesion Promoter

All Series

.5% - 10%

Increases adhesion, improves scratch resistance on polypropylene. Require a 24-hour post-cure for full adhesion properties

Pot life 4-8 hours depending on the percentage used. 

Wetting/Leveling Agent 

All Series

.5% - 1%

Helps wet substrate (especially soft vinyl) and helps with ink surface leveling

Conatins sillicone. Monitor intercoat adhesion. 

Scuff Resistant Additive  Ideal for Topcoat &/or Overprint Clears

All Series 

.5% - 3%

Increases Scuff Resistance. Ideal for containers 

Loss of intercoat adhesion, loss of clarity in Overprint Clears

Flow Agent and Bubble Control 

All Series

.5% - 1%

Controls bubbles & orange peel, reduces viscosity so the ink levels.

N/A 

Flow Agent and Bubble Control

All Series

.5% - 1%

Controls Bubbles & orange peel, reduces viscosity so the ink levels. 

Loss of intercoat adesion due to the silicone
