    UV CURING SPEED

    Curing speed is 200MPM with 2 lamps of 120 Watt/cm

    The curing depends on the kind of UV curing unit (reflectors, age and power of the UV lamps, the
    printed ink layer thickness and the belt speed of the UV curing unit). In certain cases the flow and
    the gloss can be improved by passing prints under IR lamps prior to UV curing.

    POST CURING

    The adhesion of the varnish is best evaluated after 24 hours. In the time interval, a post curing effect
    takes place during which the varnish cools down and the UV chemical termination reaction happens,
    resulting in a better adhesion.

    SAFETY

    UV varnishes are formulated free of heavy metals and complies with EN 71/3 standard.
    These varnishes are REACH compliant and free from SVHC substances (Reach annex XIV) and
    substances mentioned on the candidate list (last update 16122014)
    Please consult the MSDS.

    SHELFLIFE & STORAGE

    When the UV varnish is stored between 15 and 20°C in its closed original can, shelf life will be
    minimum 12 months from date of manufacture

    REMARKS

    1. All surfaces must be free from grease, clean and dry before coating.
    2. As said, the surface to be printed should at least be 38 dynes/cm. Any tension lower than 38
    will inevitable result in poor or no adhesion. We strongly recommend that the surface
    tension be measured prior to printing in order to avoid claims from the end user of the
    printed product.
    3. The surface tension of the cured film with non gluable varnish is <34 mN/m.
    4. We also strongly recommend, before starting the varnishing to check the print for bleeding
    resistance, as certain pigments in the inks tend to bleed when over lacquered with UV
    Varnish

    starting the actual job.
