Solvent Based Pad Printing Ink Range, 1- and (alternatively) 2-Component
APPLICATION
Pad printing ink range TP E-HF is suitable for printing on various thermoplastics, especially ABS, SAN, ASA, polystyrene (PS), rigid PVC, PMMA (“acrylic glass”) and polycarbonate (PC).
In addition, as a 2-component system and/or after pre-treatment of substrates (flame, corona) TP E-HF inks can also be printed on polyester, polyamide (PA) and some coated surfaces.
PROPERTIES
• Pad inks TP E-HF are solvent based pad printing inks. They can be processed as 1-component and (alternatively) as 2-component ink with hardener
• In line with current safety requirements pad printing inks TP E-HF have been formulated with especially environmentally compatible raw materials.
The inks are free of halogens according to DIN EN 61249-2-21*.
In addition, TP E-HF inks do not contain aromatics, butyl glycolate (GB-Ester), cyclohexanone, Bisphenol A (BPA) and also no polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH).
Exception: Black colours N50-HF, 65-HF and 65-HD-HF (PAH- containing pigments).
• If the criteria to obtain the GS mark according to GS specification AfPS GS 2014:01 PAH have to be met, the following applies:
Colour shade black:
Only colour shades N58-HF, 68-HF or 68-HD-HF are suitable.
Thinner/Additives
Only those products marked with symbol in this data sheet are suitable.
• Processed as 1-component ink TP E-HF dries physically, as 2-component ink physically chemically-reactive
• TP E-HF inks are quick drying and result in a glossy finish. This ink range can be used on flat pad printing and rotation printing equipment.
• TP E-HF prints show a good abrasion resistance and good resistance against alcohol and benzines. These resistance properties can be improved by processing TP E-HF as a 2-component system.
• Processed as 2-component system TP E-HF inks will also show adhesion or increased adhesion on difficult substrates.
• Ink range TP E-HF is suitable for outdoor applications.
• Note: Because of the variety of substrates, pre-tests are essential. It is also advised to check efficiency of possibly required pre-treatment of substrates (cleaning/degreasing, flame/corona/plasma treatment) or maybe even post-treatment (flame-drying).
