Q1: What is the primary application field for GRAPHTOL F3RK70 170?
A: GRAPHTOL F3RK70 170 is specifically developed for high-performance gravure and flexographic inks used in packaging applications, particularly where excellent rub resistance, gloss retention, and pigment dispersion stability are required.
Q2: Is this pigment suitable for food-contact packaging inks?
A: GRAPHTOL F3RK70 170 is designed to meet stringent purity requirements for indirect food contact applications when formulated in compliance with applicable regional regulations; final regulatory suitability depends on the complete ink formulation and intended migration conditions.
Q3: How does F3RK70 170 perform in low-VOC or solvent-reduced ink systems?
A: This pigment demonstrates good compatibility and dispersion stability in modern low-VOC gravure and flexo inks, including those based on ethanol, ethyl acetate, and propylene glycol monomethyl ether acetate (PGMEA), supporting formulation flexibility without compromising print quality.
Q4: What is the typical dosage range in ink formulations?
A: Dosage typically ranges from 0.1% to 2% by weight relative to total ink solids, depending on desired color strength, substrate, and printing process parameters—optimization is recommended during ink development.
