NoriPUR® + NIR-Curing
One and two component screen & pad printing ink suitable for NIR curing for the decoration of beverage crates
The versatile ink system can be used as one or two component ink for printing onto PVC, pre-treated polyester and polyolefins, acrylics, polycarbonate, wood, metals and more.
Processed as two-component ink, NoriPUR® shows excellent resistance to chemical and mechanical influences.
A wide range of color shades, including metallics and highly opaque formulations, is available from stock.
In general, two-component screen printing inks dry relatively slowly.
Instead of a conventional hardener, NoriPUR® inks can be processed with a NIR-activatable hardener that is optimally adapted to the NIR drying process.
By using this NIR-activatable hardener - Hardener 047 - the drying of the two-component ink layers is significantly accelerated.
The accelerated drying can be advantageous for decorating front panels (control panels for white goods), beverage crates, as well as metals and many other substrates.
Specially developed highly opaque white color shades were developed for printing on beverage crates. Even these screen printing inks, applied in thick layers, can be fully cured within a few minutes through the intense NIR drying process.
