Highly specialized dispersant & thickener for ink jet coating colors

Advanced coating colors for ink jet printing with good ink absorption and water fastness are characterized by the use of high specific surface pigments and the addition of ionic additives.
Both conduct to a difficult rheology and the obligation to dilute the coating colors during make down and for coating operation. The dilution itself is critical for costs, water retention, productivity and printing quality.
 

Key takeaways:

TOPSPERSE™ JX A and RHEOCARB™ J 40 can help eliminate this vicious circle with a highly specialized dispersant and thickener, specifically designed for ink jet coating colors. These differentiated technologies are effective in strongly ionic conditions where conventional rheology
modifiers fail to provide needed performance attributes.
