RC VX 47 SERIES

PREFAC

RC VX 47 SERIES has excellent flexibility and superior weathering resistance. RC VX 47 SERIES is suitable for high-grade PVC stickers which need good weathering resistance.

APPLICATIONS

PVC stickers which require weathering resistance, treated polyester stickers, rigid vinyl

CHARACTERISTICS

  • Excellent weathering resistance.
  • Flexible ink film has also good physical properties.
  • Over-printability and post-print formability are good.
  • High gloss. Printability and reproducibility are excellent.
  • Low skin irritation(P.I.I). Safe to handle.

HOW TO USE

  1. Ink is supplied in ready-to-use condition. Stir well before use.
  2. Add REDUCER up to 10%, if necessary.
  3. Standard curing conditions: (These conditions change depending on the substrate.)

PRECAUTIONS

  1. Skin irritation(P.I.I.) of each color is low(under 2.0). However, it is advised to avoid skin contact. In case of skin contact, please wash with soap and water immediately.
  2. Store the ink in a cool and dark place. Stir occasionally to keep stability when the ink is stored for a long time.
  3. Stir well before use as de-foamer might be separated.
  4. Standard thickness of colored ink film is 10-12 microns. If the thickness exceeds 15 microns, insufficient curing may cause poor adhesion.
  5. Please refer to MSDS before use.
  6. Be sure to do trial print before commercial run to confirm that the product fits the purposes.
