PLT13 SILICONE INK

APPLICATIONS
All kinds of silicon materials, tissues and non-slip socks.

FEATURES
Silicone based ink.

Two-component ink, formulated with a mixture of specific silicon substances; glossy appearance, it maintains flexibility at temperatures from -50 to 200° C; excellent elasticity, soft touch even if applied to high thickness systems, good opacity. Overprintable with himself only. Good outdoor resistance, good solidity to chemicals. Non-toxic ink (NT) conforms to European regulations EN 71/part 3 and European Directive 2011/65/EC (RoHS 2).

PROCESSING
Add 3% of PLH13 catalyst. Ink is ready to use but, if necessary, use the PLB thinner from 5 to 10%.

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. The catalyzed ink must be consumed within 6-8 hours or afterwards it gradually loses its mechanical-chemical resistance and its ability to adhere to the support.

DRYING AND HARDENING

The PLT13 ink dries and polymerizes only if inserted in the oven at temperatures of 160 °C for about 3-5 minutes or 130 °C for about 6-7 minutes.

COLOUR RANGE
Given the specific nature of the ink, the colors available are different from the standard ones. Please require COMEC ITALIA

the availability of each color.

ADDITIVES
PLB   fast  thinner.

PLH13 hardener.

Puffing additive paste up to 3%

PLDL solvent.

PRESERVATION
Lifetime of about 2 years (1 year if metallic). Conditions for preservation: the package must be sealed tight and put in a dry and cool space. PLT13 ink series storage must not exceed 30 degrees. If exposed for a long time at temperatures in excess, increase of viscosity or gelation problems may occur.
