Application
As a result of their relatively coarse pigments, fluorescent printing inks are not so easily print-able as conventional offset inks. The coarser pigment structure may prove troublesome in ink splitting between the plate and the blanket or between the blanket and the printing material, and to achieve the required optical effect it usually requires a second run, which if at all possible should not be wet-on-wet. These inks are not so well suited to the printing of halftone areas and fine line drawings as the heavy inking required to obtain the required optical effect readily causes the filling-in of fine halftone areas. The light-fastness of fluorescent printing inks is very poor. It is inadvisable to use them for outdoor posters or equally for printed products that are exposed to intensive light and direct sunlight. Fluorescent printing inks are not resistant to spirit varnishes or nitro varnishes. Neither do they have alkali resistance (tested acc. to DIN 16524). Therefore it is not recommended to varnish them with dispersion varnish or UV varnish. The range of fluorescent inks is tailored to wet offset processing. The inks can also be used in dry offset and letterpress printing.
Conventional binder systems
The inks are press-ready for normal purposes. If it is necessary to reduce the tack when working with stock that is particularly susceptible to picking, we recommend thinning with Paste Reducer 10 T 9998 or Linseed Oil/Printing Oil 10 T 1405.
UV-curing binder system
When using UV-inks it is recommended to print twice with intermediate UV-drying, preferably
in the dry offset method. It is not advisable to use these inks on EPDM roller coverings. These roller materials may swell
on contact with the inks and are prematurely destroyed.
UV-TEMP fluorescent blue 43 Y 1801, and UV-TEMP fluorescent green 44 Y 1802 exhibit an
adequate optical effect after one print only.
The Paste Reducer we recommend is 10 Y 6004 09.
