♦ Glass

• Halogen free(Cl ≤900ppm, Br ≤900ppm, Cl+Br ≤1500ppm)
• Has excellent on-the-stencil stability and suitable to big size printing.
• Has wide variety of colors.
• Excellent adhesion to glass and has good resistance.
• Does not contain benzene, toluene, xylene isophoron, cyclohexanone, and therefore is environmentally friendly.

• Stir well before every use.
• Thin with 5-15% of Z-705 solvent for normal use.
• Do not use other solvent or it may occur bad effect to adhesion, curing and on-the-stencil stability.
• Add 0.5 parts of GLS GLASS PROMOTER to 100 parts of ink, and stir well. Catalyst is not needed.
• Pot life is about 6 hours. After 6 hours, the ink does not get gelation but adhesion and resistance will drop. Please prepare only the required quantity.
• “Screen Cleaner N” is suitable to cleaning.

180-250 mesh monofilament screen is recommended as stencil. Coverage with 250 mesh is about 35-40 m2/kg with HF919 Black and 30-35 with HF619 White.

Must be dried longer than 30 minutes at 150 ℃ . Otherwise may suffer insufficient adhesion and resistance. When dried at 230 ℃, longer than 10 minutes will be enough. When print multi times, dry 10 minutes at 80 ℃ after printing each color to get tack free dry, and final drying should be done 30 minutes at 150 ℃.

GLS Glass Promoter： Add 0.5% of GLS Glass Promoter, or adhesion will not be appearing. SM 40 Defoamer: Add 2% when foaming or repelling appears.
