Inkjet Inks
Special Features and Benefits
The additive enhances pigment wetting and improves optical properties (color strength, gloss, haze and transparency) because of its outstanding pigment stabilization. It not only reduces the level of viscosity in pigment concentrates and final inkjet inks, but also prevents thixotropy.
The additive can achieve long-term storage stability without a viscosity shift. It provides equal electrical charge to the pigment particles, and thus prevents possible co-flocculation of particles that are not equally charged. Excellent pigment deflocculation leads to small particle size and narrow particle size distribution, thereby significantly reducing filtration time.
BYKJET-9151 may be used in all types of aqueous, solvent-borne and UV-curing inkjet inks. It can stabilize most
pigments commonly used in inkjet inks.
Recommended Use- Aqueous inkjet inks
- Solvent-borne inkjet inks
- UV-curing inkjet inks
Recommended Levels
% additive (as supplied) based upon- Organic pigments: 20-60%
- Carbon black: 30-100%
The dosage levels are indicated for the purpose of orientation. Optimal dosage levels are determined through series of tests.
Incorporation and Processing Instructions : Wetting and dispersing additives should be added to the millbase. This way, they can achieve their full effectiveness. Binder and solvents/water/reactive diluents are premixed with the additive while stirring, and should be homogenized before the pigment is added.
