Key performance targets
- Adhesion and anchorage, opacity or clarity (as required), gloss control (high-gloss to matt), scratch and abrasion resistance, chemical resistance, non-yellowing performance, process robustness and fast UV cure, stability and consistency for production printing.
Typical applications
- Packaging and decorative printing on paper/carton, plastics and metallised substrates, industrial marking and graphics, electronics printing and membrane switch layers, protective OPV finishing (anti-glare, scratch resistant, matt).
How we support your project
- Formulation strategy and raw material selection, rheology and cure tuning for your screen process, adhesion optimization on challenging substrates, troubleshooting (adhesion loss, yellowing, insufficient rub resistance, surface defects), performance testing plan and interpretation, scale-up guidance and implementation support.
Deliverables
- Target-driven formulation roadmap, recommended chemistries and options, benchmarking versus your references, documented development outcomes and knowledge handover (project-dependent).
