Properties:
- UV-curable screen printing ink for Corona-pre-treated or top-coated polyethylene (PE) and polypropylene (PP), self-adhesive films, top-coated polyester PET films, PVC, and paper labels
- Silicone-free, high gloss, very fast curing, good opacity, high chemical resistance, for UV rotary screen printing with cylindrical screen printing stencils like Gallus Screeny® and Stork Screens Rotamesh®
Substrates:
- Self-adhesive PVC foil
- Polyester coated
- Polyethylene (PE), pre-treated
- Paper, corrugated paper
Auxiliaries:
| UVV6 | Thinner | 1 - 5 % |
| STM | Thickening Agent | 0.5 - 2 % |
| UR4 | Cleaner (flp. 52°C) | |
| UR5 | Cleaner (flp. 72°C) |
Ink adjustment:
In regard of viscosity and rheology, Ultra RotaScreen UVSF is press-ready, and brilliant at high gloss and best possible opacity, and can be embossed with suitable hot stamping foils.
The opaque white features homogeneous flow for solid areas and exact dot reproduction when printing finest motifs or letters.
The printed and totally polymerised ink film has a high chemical and mechanical resistance and offers a good flexibility for die-cutting by means of flat bed or rotary tools.For silicone-free products it is important to use only thoroughly cleaned stencils, squeegees, ink pumps, tubes (in the case of an automatic ink supply), and injectors for the manual ink filling of the stencil, etc. If cleaning is carried out with automatic screen washing systems, we recommend prior to printing an additional manual cleaning with a fresh cleaner not having had any contact with ink residues containing silicone.
Care should be taken with some adhesive tapes, used to protect the outer areas of the print region, as the release agent of the tape may be silicone.
Drying:
The curing speed of the ink is generally dependant upon the kind of UV-curing unit (reflectors), number, age, and power of the UV-lamps, the printed ink film thickness, colour shade, substrate in use, as well as the printing speed.
Ultra RotaScreen UVSF is a post-curing UV ink which will achieve its final adhesion and resistances after 24 hours. The adhesion of the ink is usually tested by a tape test after the ink film has cooled down to room temperature (approx. 20° C).
As with all UV-curable printing inks, the presence of residual monomers and photoinitiators' decomposition products cannot be completely ruled out even after sufficient curing. If these traces are relevant for the application, this must be taken into account in individual cases, as this depends on the actual printing and curing conditions.
Please make sure that waste prints are also completely cured, otherwise they are subject to the same disposal rules as liquid ink residues (hazardous waste).

Ultra RotaScreen UVSF is a very fast curing UV rotary screen printing ink. A UV drying unit with one or two medium pressure Mercury Vapour Lamps (capacity 150-200 W/cm) cures all colour shades at a web speed of 25 - 65 m/min.
The curing speed of the ink is generally dependant upon the kind of UV-curing unit (reflectors), number, age, and power of the UV-lamps, the printed ink film thickness, colour shade, substrate in use, as well as the printing speed.
Ultra RotaScreen UVSF is a post-curing UV ink which will achieve its final adhesion and resistances after 24 hours. The adhesion of the ink is usually tested by a tape test after the ink film has cooled down to room temperature (approx. 20° C).

Please make sure that waste prints are also completely cured, otherwise they are subject to the same disposal rules as liquid ink residues (hazardous waste).Printing parameters:
UVSF has been developed for rotary screen printing meshes such as Gallus Screeny® (types KS, KM) or Stork Screens Rotamesh® (RM 305 with 17, 13 or 11% of open surface).
