What Wax Powder Is Used For UV Ink To Prevent Sticking

What wax powder is used for UV ink to prevent sticking? UV ink uses matting powder to achieve matting effect, but matting powder has a great influence on the viscosity of UV ink. When the solvent is absorbed into the matting powder, the UV ink itself will become viscous and even clump. As time goes by, the agglomeration problem has an increasing impact on the performance of UV ink.

Choose wax powder as a UV ink matting agent. Due to its low melting point and good fluidity, it mainly plays the role of matting, non-oil absorption, and non-foaming.

Advantages of UV ink anti-sticking wax powder:

1. The special wax powder for UV ink has no effect on the viscosity of UV ink.

2. There is no foaming during the stirring process, and defoaming agent can be completely omitted.

In addition, micro-powder wax is widely used in printing inks, paints, and coatings with its excellent performance. It can improve the surface’s scratch resistance, wear resistance, increase slip, improve anti-stickiness and anti-fouling properties, inhibit the gloss of printing inks, prevent pigment sedimentation, and produce high-performance matte inks and paints with matte powder. It has become an indispensable and important auxiliary agent in the production of paints and inks.

In addition to producing special anti-stick wax powder for UV ink, Tianshi also produces PE wax, PTFE wax and PP wax. When added to coatings and inks, they can impart smoothness, matteness, scratch resistance, wear resistance and good dispersibility. In UV inks, wax also acts as an air barrier, reduces oxygen inhibition and is beneficial to surface curing.
