Next-Generation Water-Based Defoamers for Inks and OPVs

As the printing industry evolves, selecting the appropriate defoamer for each application becomes crucial. The ideal scenario involves having a selection of versatile defoamers with excellent food contact compliance to meet a wide range of defoaming requirements. In this webinar, we will present a comprehensive portfolio of defoamers, emphasizing their use in pigment dispersion, letdown vehicles, and overprint varnishes. Additionally, we will highlight the significance of food contact compliance, especially for indirect food contact packaging applications. Our discussion will cover defoamers that excel in tackling complex and challenging ink, coating, and overprint varnish systems. By the end of this presentation, you will gain a deeper understanding of the various defoamer options available, empowering you to make informed decisions tailored to your specific application needs.

Outperformulate your waterborne inks - Part II

Recorded Webinar: Inks are often produced from semi-finished to address the application complexity and reduce the final production step to a blending operation. Semi-finished must not only be intermixable and compatible but also stable over the time. In this mini webinar series, challenges and solutions were presented. In the first part we have presented solutions for pigment preparations and particle stabilization, so how to control the color and appearance of an ink. Part 2, have been related to foam, slip, release and substrate wetting - so control of the physical parameters of an ink.
