ADP Lamination Ink

Our 03-4000 series ADP Lamination ink  is designed for use under a wide variety of printing applications. This ink is  generally used to print polyethylene, polypropylene, and polyester substrates,  which are to be adhesive laminated to another layer of film. Currently, most  converters are laminating using a two-package, solvent less adhesive, and  lamination process. However, this ink has also been applied then laminated with  water based, or catalyzed adhesive processes. In any case, CAI suggests that the  ink be sufficiently tested before using any significant quantity. This ink  system produces very good bond strengths, and has also been used in security  applications where strong bonds to hot melt adhesive are required. This ink  system has little or no compatibility with other ink systems, and we do not  suggest blending other inks with this system. This system can be thinned with  blends of Npropanol, and VM+P naptha (90/10), and has also been run successfully  using Npropanol/Npropyl acetate (90/10). This ink does not print fine plate  screens with high screen count anilox rolls well, and is therefore not suggested  for process and screen printing. Colors in this system are somewhat limited, but  most base colors are available. The following are a list of the base colors  currently available in this ink system.

*** CAI  suggests under all applications ink, substrates, and adhesive are thoroughly  tested for compatibility and bond strengths. CAI makes no guarantee as to the  performance of these inks, due to lack of direct control of any  printer/converters processes, and handling.
