PET series , a UV curable screen ink, was designed for use on a wide variety of substrate application that soft & rigid PVC, PVC sticker, per-treated PET & PP , metalized paper, etc. There is no additives required and extremely flexible and chemical resistance with good gloss, wide finishes & color in the fast curing pr operties. This series contains several matt finishes for many end user requirement and it will be work will in termixing gloss inks and matt finished inks. Matt finished inks would be introduce in the TDS of UV curable coating & varnish.

A screen mesh size of 200 – 350 mesh/inch plain wave, monofilament polyester mesh will be provide best results and sharp polyurethan e squeegee of approximately 75 – 85 durometer 60/90 recommended for optimum results. Typical printing lines utilize 300W/inch(120W/cm)D-bulbs , between print stations. Other UV systems with suitable spectral output in the 300-400nm range, such as medium-pressure mercury vapor or metal ha lide, may be used. Actual cure speeds will vary depending on color and opacity of the ink, screen mesh, and other printing parameters that affect ink deposit, as well as the UV curing unit used. Before printing by it, check surface tension of substrate for good adhesion. May be 48 – 54 mN/m of surface tension is acceptable. Since a ll the print substrates mentioned may be different in printability, even within an individual type, preliminary trials are essen tial to determine suitability for the intended use.

Screen may be cleaned with IPA, n-propyl acetate or many commercial screen washes. We recommended JD-100 Wash up solution for cleanings and clean immediately after printing.

As with this inks , gloves and safety device should be used when handling the products. For more complete information do you need, refer to the Material Safety Data Sheet before use.
