Technical Guidelines & Operating Instructions

Follow these recommendations to achieve optimal printing results and ink performance.

Core Process Parameters

  • Standard Viscosity: 20-30 seconds (Zahn 4# cup)
  • pH Control: 8.5 - 9.5
  • Substrate Requirement: Surface Tension ≥ 38 dyne

Operating Recommendations

Dilution Ratio:

Suggested water addition is less than 10%, depending on ambient temperature and humidity.

Anilox Roller:

Recommended 400-600 line screen for optimal ink transfer.

Drying Temperature:

Set dryer between 60℃-80℃

Machine Stoppage:

If stopped for more than 30 minutes, flush the ink path thoroughly with water.

Important Warning: Do not over-reduce with water. Excessive water addition will cause viscosity breakdown and adhesion failure. For drying speed adjustments, please consult technical support for specialized additives.

Notes

During storage, the lid of the barrel must be closed to avoid volatilization of water, causing viscosity to rise or crusting. It must be stirred well before use, please try not to mix with other company products, and the unused products need to be sealed and stored. Please confirm the method and effect before use.

 

FAQ for SC8000

1. Is the SC8000 ink safe for food packaging applications?

Yes. The SC8000 Non-Woven Water-Based Ink is formulated to meet strict international safety standards, including FDA, RoHS 2.0, and REACH compliance. It is non-toxic, odorless, and contains low VOCs, making it a safe choice for printing on non-woven fabrics used in food-grade packaging and other sensitive applications. Each batch is backed by a CNAS test report to ensure safety.

2. What is the recommended viscosity for high-speed printing?

For optimal adaptability on high-speed flexographic production lines, the recommended on-machine viscosity is 18–28 seconds (measured with a Zahn Cup #4). The standard specification is 20 ± 5s. Please test viscosity prior to application and adjust carefully. Note: Do not over-reduce with water (keep under 10%) to avoid adhesion failure.

3. Can you customize the ink color and formula for my specific machine?

Absolutely. We offer comprehensive customization services. We can match specific Pantone color codes and adjust the formula based on your machine parameters (such as speed and anilox rollers) and substrate requirements. Our process involves consultation, lab matching, and trial runs to ensure the SC8000 ink performs perfectly on your production line.

4. How should I handle the ink if the machine needs to stop for a while?

If the machine is stopped for more than 30 minutes, it is crucial to flush the ink path thoroughly with water. Additionally, always keep the ink container sealed when not in use to prevent surface skinning and dust contamination. If residual ink contains impurities, filter it carefully before blending with fresh ink.

5. What are the storage conditions and shelf life of this product?

The SC8000 ink has a shelf life of 12 months when stored in cool, dry conditions. To maintain the ink's premium quality and fluidity, ensure the storage area is temperature-controlled. Before use, remember to stir the ink thoroughly to maintain a consistent composition.
