UV adhesion promoter for acrylic printing
Acrylic makes an excellent canvas for printing in many industries because of its clarity, durability, and versatility. Like any printing process, achieving a strong and durable bond between the ink and the material is crucial for ensuring the longevity and quality of the prints. In this article, we focus on the application and benefits of M74F on acrylic materials.
UV Ink Adhesion
UV ink, once cured, may not adhere well to all substrates. There are many factors that impact inkjet ink adhesion, including the type of surface, pretreatment used, printing environment, etc. This article addresses these ink adhesion challenges and how to resolve them.
Primer for UV printing on glass
UV inkjet ink adhesion on glass is not good. To achieve excellent UV ink adhesion, use a primer such as the Natron G1 UV glass primer. The G1 Glass primer also works well on tritan plastic bottles. Lets discuss on how to improve UV ink adhesion on glass.
What is polypropylene primer?
Polypropylene Primer is used for hard-to-bond surfaces such as polypropylene plastics-typically denoted by PP. Learn more about PP primer and the inks to use for printing on this hard to print substrate.
Priming is the solution
Some of the challenging substrates to print are stainless steel, coated metal, PP Plastics, synthetic rubbers, etc. As a result a UV Inkjet primer is very important.
So How do you get inkjet ink to stick to stainless?
UV Ink Primers for UV Inkjet Printers
UV inkjet primers are very vital especially when dealing with UV inkjet printers. The industrial and promotional products markets use UV flatbed printers because of the ability to print full color. However, the printing inks are limited to number of substrates they can adhere to. This is where primers step in, to make it possible to print on many different substrates with UV inkjet inks.
Natron™ UV Inkjet Primer
Boston Industrial Solutions, Inc. introduces the most advance primer for plastics. The Natron™ PP Primer (polypropylene adhesive primer) is ideal to use on all Low surface energy plastics. This single component primer is ideal to use with UV, UV-LED inkjet inks, pad printing, screen-printing inks, and silicone ink lines. This is the go-to Primer for plastics and rubber polymer substrates.
Plastics, glass, metals and silicone pre-Treatment methods
How do you improve pad printing inks adhesion on to your substrates? You use a pre-treatment method depending on the substrates. In this article we discuss the pre-treatment methods for plastics, glass, metals, silicone, and more.
