The inks in the PAL Matte8 series are screen printing inks newly developed for polyester film (PET). All known drawbacks of the conventional inks for PET film were corrected and all industrial needs as well as the latest screen printing technology were carefully examined to develop the PAL Matte8 series.
| Ink type | Air-drying ink blended with polyester resin. |
| Usage | Powerful adhesion to polyester (PET) film. |
| Finish | Matte satin finish. |
| Coverage | Approximately 30m2 per kilogram using Tetron 250-mesh screen. |
| Drying time | Sets to touch in about 7 minutes at room temperature allowing overprinting. Obtains about 90% of its physical properties after standing for 24 hours. Thermal curing at 60-80°C for 10-20 minutes is recommend ed to account for work environment and seasonal fluctuation. |
| Diluent | Standard solvent (T-995), slow-dry solvent (T-997), retarder (T-980). |
| Wash-up | T-903 |
| Notes | PAL transparent inks are available separately for transparent finish, good leveling, or for metallic colors.Slow-drying PAL type inks are also available for fine line printing and other applications requiring higher work efficiency. |
| Material | PET film 125μ |
| Screen | 250-MESH SCREEN |
| Ink | PAL Matte8 120 White (diluent T-995) |
The inks in the GAP New series are designed for printing on polyester film. They feature outstanding adhesion and workability.
| Ink type | Air-drying ink blended with polyester resin. |
| Usage | Polyester films in general. |
| Finish | Semi-gloss finish of good leveling properties. |
| Clarity | Opacity varies with the color. Eight transparent colors are also available. |
| Coverage | Approximately 30m2 per kilogram using a 250-mesh screen. |
| Drying time | Sets to touch after about 20 minutes of air-drying (at 20°C). May take longer in work environments filled with solvent vapors. Adhesion problems may result due to residual solvent if drying is insufficient. Thermal curing at 50-60°C for 5-10 minutes is ideal. |
| Adhesion | Adhesion is good, but varies with the film surface quality. Test before use. Overprintability is also satisfactory. |
| Diluent | Standard solvent (T-977), slow-dry solvent (T-980), retarder (T-953). |
| Wash-up | T-903 |
| Notes | • Mediums include GAP NEW-800 medium, GAP NEW-800 matte medium, GAP NEW-850 halftone base medium, etc. • Addition (5-10%) of reinforcing agent D improves adhesion. |
| Drying | GAP NEW-710 print results measured after thermal curing at 80°C x 30 minutes or 1 week of air drying. |
