We introduced QLT in April 2008 as an ultra-fast SBQ textile emulsion with high viscosity (7,200 CPS) and solids (+ 43%). Almost as an afterthought, we mentioned that it resists most washup solvents. That has proved to be a key feature now that many ink manufacturers are reformulating plastisols to eliminate phthalates as plasticizers. As it happens, the replacement plasticizers contain more aggressive solvents. QLT is quickly gaining new imprinted sportswear customers who now require an emulsion with better solvent resistance.
FEATURES |
BENEFITS |
Pre-sensitized with SBQ |
Convenience: no measuring or mixing. Long shelf and coated screen life Fast exposing.
|
Contains texturing agents |
Easy post-printing-stroke life under high humidity conditions. Reduced hydrostatic attraction in low humidity; no ink "feathering". |
Wide exposure latitude |
Reliable performance in less-than-ideal shop conditions. Easy to decoat, even if underexposed/used with aggressive solvents.
|
High (7,200 centipoise) viscosity |
Easier to control during coating, even on coarse mesh. |
|
Good EOM (emulsion over mesh thickness) buildup per coat.
|
|
Excellent coatability Forgiving of poor mesh preparation
