Nature Physical form Storage
Aqueous dispersion of a thermally crosslinkable acrylate copolymer. Slightly viscous liquid. When stored correctly, in sealed containers, Helizarin Binder UDT has a shelf life of 12 months. After product has been removed, opened drums must be properly resealed, because the product tends to form a skin when it is exposed to the air.
Properties
Density Boiling point pH Solubility Approx. 1.02 g/cm3 Approx. 100 C 7–9 Miscible with water in all proportions. o Application
Helizarin Binder UDT is an acrylic pigment-printing binder for direct, discharge and resist printing. The prints are fast to dry cleaning, have a pleasingly soft handle and excellent all round fastness properties. It is recommended for full and half emulsion as well as for all aqueous applications. Processing Notes The compatibility of Helizarin Binder UDT with auxiliaries normally used in pigment printing is very good. Also it can be mixed with all other Helizarin binders in all proportions. Helizarin Binder UDT permits the production of prints with an excellent standard of fastness, including fastness to dry cleaning. The binder is recommended in direct, discharge and resist printing. Prints produced with Helizarin Binder UDT have a pleasingly soft handle and are resistant to ageing. Compared to other binders, Helizarin Binder UDT only reduces very little the viscosity of synthetic thickeners (e.g. Lutexal HIT) Guideline Recipes Standard recipe for low solvent print . . . g/kg 25 g/kg 50 - 180 g/kg 20 - 25 g/kg 150 - 250 g/kg . . . g/kg 25 g/kg 50 - 180 g/kg 30 - 35 g/kg Water Luprintol MCL Helizarin Binder UDT Lutexal HIT White Sprit Water Luprintol MCL Helizarin
