Technical notes
  • Protect uncured ink from ambient UV light.
  • Conduct a production trial on the actual substrate before mass printing.
  • Validate curing according to lamp type, UV intensity, conveyor speed, color, opacity and ink-film thickness.
  • Shelf life: 12 months from manufacture in unopened original packaging; re-test expired material.
