Do you need high-performance water based resin systems for graphic arts inks and coatings with controlled printability, fast drying, and durable end-use properties? 3Dresyns provides 2D formulation/synthesis consulting (technology transfer) to help you develop and implement water based resin technologies for demanding graphic arts applications.
Scope
3Dresyns offers resin synthesis and formulation consulting on a wide range of water based acrylic emulsions, colloidal dispersions, and resin solutions used in graphic arts inks and coatings, including:
- Overprint varnishes (OPV´s), including tobacco innerliners
- Flexible and functional packaging inks and coatings
- Paper, paperboard, and specialty paper coatings
- Coatings for improved rub resistance, barrier properties, and surface protection
Typical performance targets
- Fast drying and high production throughput
- Excellent transfer and printability
- Wet and dry rub resistance
- Clarity and low yellowing (for clear coatings)
- Gloss and matt control
- Adhesion to targeted substrates
- Water and chemical resistance (grade dependent)
- Long shelf life and storage stability
- Low VOC / VOC free strategies
- APE free (alkyl phenol ethoxylates) and HAPS free (hazardous air pollutants) options
- FDA compliance strategies (when applicable to end use)
Technology transfer deliverables
Depending on scope, typical technology-transfer outputs can include resin architecture selection, emulsion polymerization route design, formulation guidance, process windows, and quality-control checkpoints to support scale-up and reproducibility.
