The test results indicated in our
technical literature are only indicative
values under controlled conditions of
laboratory with virgin standard packaging
grade films. For lower grades or
substandard films the customers are
advised to check the bond strength,
lightfastness etc., prior to issuing for
commercial use. Sakata will not take any
responsibility for any abnormal
results.For
most of the aggressive chemicals including
soaps and detergents Lamiall shades with
ARSR properties as mentioned "A" in our
Technical Information Literature, the inks
are suitable for direct application.
However in some cases it is recommended
that 3% hardener be added in the base
colour. Please consult with our
representative.Lamiall inks are based on a
patented resin system and should not be
mixed with any other ink
system.
Please
avoid use of Lamiall inks in conjunction
with other inks. This may be done on case
to case basis, after ensuring
compatibility with Lamiall. It is also
advised that suitability with adhesive
used for lamination is ascertained before
use. For more details, please refer to our
technical team.It is recommended that 24
hours curing time be allowed after
printing before lamination. However, rolls
may be inspected during this time.We
recommend using 2% hardener PTC with
Lamiall inks while printing on PT
Cellophane during humid conditions.For
both sides treated PT Cellophane and PVDC
coated films the blocking resistance of
these films are inferior. Please use 3%
Lamiall anti blocking agent to avoid
blocking problems.
We
recommend using 3% hardener for some
coated OPP films where lamination is by
extrusion process to increase bond
strength.As bonding strength to
non-treated PET is lower, we recommend
using treated polyester with surface
energy over 50 dynes/sq. cm. This is to
achieve higher bond strengths.To avoid
transfer of ink film layer on soap gel
from substrate i.e. BOPP and PET (on 24
hours basis), use 3-part Lamiall hardener
with 100 parts of Lamiall ARSR inks. 3%
hardener addition in Lamiall for
application on some inferior quality of
films, have shown excellent adhesion
(after 30 minutes).To the best of our
knowledge this data sheet is accurate,
however, Sakata Inx (India) Limited
assumes no liability for the accuracy of
this information. The final determination
of the suitability of the inks for a
particular use is the sole responsibility
of the user.
