FEATURES:
It is a single-component ink that can also be used with two components.
It has a glossy appearance and an excellent covering power and is quick drying.
Non-toxic ink (NT) in compliance with the EN 71/part 3 European standard.
PRINTING SUPPORT:
It is particularly utilised on on ABS, SAN, polycarbonates, PC, stiff PVC, PA
polyamides, polymethyl methacrylate, PMMA, polypropylene and polyethylene (pre-treated).
It can also be utilised, getting good results, on painted surfaces, wood, paper,
polyester, polyurethanes and polyacetates.
RESISTANCE:
Excellent adherence on the materials given. As a two-component ink, it improves
mechanicalchemical resistance and adherence to the printing support. It has
a very good resistance to light with a 7 to 8 DIN solidity.
FLASH POINT
Higher than 43°C
PREPARATION:
Mix and strongly dilute the ink by using the PLA thinner in the measure of max.
10-20%.
When printing fine details or screened images (e.g. 80/ 120 lines per cm) in
warm environments, we recommend you add the PLD retardant in a minimum percentage.
CAUTION!
Excessive dilution generates a loss of the covering power, smudges and an imperfect
detachment of the ink from the pad.
An insufficient dilution causes problems of drawing the ink from the cliché,
printing repeatability and dripping of the ink with a consequent decline of
the printing quality.
To increase the mechanical and chemical resistance or adherence to the support,
the ink can be used as a twocomponent ink by adding the special PLH catalyst
in a 10:1 ratio (10 parts ink and 1 part catalyst).
CAUTION!
The ink used as a dual-component must be consumed within 8-10 hours or afterwards
it gradually loses its mechanical-chemical resistance and its ability to adhere
to the support.
DRYING AND HARDENING
The drying time lasts between 1 and 2 minutes at an ambient temperature of about
20°C. If you would like it to dry in only a few seconds, you can use hot
air circulation ovens (60-80 b °C) or high temperature spot devices (air
or infrared rays) that can be installed on the piece feeding systems (e.g. rotary
tables, conveyors, etc.). The ink is completely hardened after 24 hours.
COLOUR RANGE:
Consult the COMEC colour chart of glossy hues that includes a selection of 24
standard colours plus 3 threecolour shades.
All of the colour shades can be mixed with each other.
Upon request: - special sample colours.
- metallic gold and silver shades ready
for use.
ADDITIVES:
PLA thinner.
PLD retardant.
PPLD retardant paste.
PLH catalyst.
PLT9/70 transparent base.
OP opacifier.
PRESERVATION:
Lifetime of about 2 years.
Conditions for preservation: the package must be sealed tight and put in a dry
and cool environment.
ATTENTION
The PLH catalyst must be preserved with the package sealed tight and put in
a dry and cool environment. IT IS NOT MOISTURE-PROOF In the event it should
become thick, it can no longer be used.
