Flexographic and Gravure - Solvent

For solvent-based flexographic and gravure processes, Pinnacle® micronized waxes, part of the Carroll Scientific™ ink additives product line, provide the finishing touch for many ink formulations.

• Solsperse® hyperdispersants offer the potential benefits of increased pigment concentration in the millbase, improved rheological characteristics, improved stability and better tinting properties. To aid the dispersion of certain organic pigments, a synergist can be used.  Solsperse® 5000 and Solsperse® 22000 synergists are offered for solvent-based applications.
  
• Pinnacle ^TM  micronized powders allow ink formulators to choose from a wide selection of natural and synthetic polymers that can be micronized to very specific particle sizes. This ability to obtain tight particle size distributions allows our customers the highest level of formulation flexibility.
  
• Liquitron PE dispersions aid in the protection of the printed ink film and have various particle sizes, non-volatiles content, and are FDA compliant.
  
• Doresco® and Sancure^TM resin and polymers are used in hot stamp foil and vacuum metalizing industries.
