Description:

7100 Series Container Decorating

Series 7100 is a press-ready UV ink formulated specifically for the container decorating industry. Properly cured, these inks will exhibit excellent adhesion and superior resistance to solvents, water, and chemicals typically packaged in these containers. Other important features include flexibility and fast curing during high speed printing.

COVERAGE:Using 390 monofilament polyester mesh, Series 7100 will yield an average of 3200 square feet per gallon. Recommended ink film thickness is 0.4 to 0.6 mil (10-15 microns).

OPACITY:Good opacity on most substrates.

CURING: Series 7100 has been formulated for fast curing to maximize production speeds. Focused mercury vapor arcs and microwave lamps with a window of 200-225 millijoules will provide an optimal cure. Printing speeds of 70-100 bottles per minute can be expected.

MODIFIERS:To lower the

adhesion to substrate.

MODIFIERS:To lower the viscosity which will enhance the transfer of the ink through the screen, use Thinner #1 (Diluent) OR #2. To increase curing speeds add Activator #7 (Sensitizer). To eliminate bubbles resulting from the screening process, add Anti-Bubble #1 or #2. To eliminate Òfish eyesÓ in the wet ink film add Flow Promoter. Use 71-100 Mixing Base as an extender to enhance cure and adhesion to substrate. Use 71-400 H/T Mixing Base as an extender to reduce color strength of Process colors and to increase the viscosity of standard colors for fine line copy. Thickening Powder (KC-8212) can be used when color strength can not be altered. Flattening Powder (KC-8211) is available to reduce gloss

WARNING: The use of goggles, gloves, and protective clothing is recommended. Avoid prolonged breathing of vapors. Contact of liquid material with the skin may be irritating; wash exposed area thoroughly with soap and water. Contact of liquid with the eyes may cause injury Ð effects may be delayed; flush eyes with large amounts of water for 15 minutes and call a physician. Like most polymers, the properly Ðcured resins are considered largely inert.
