White and brown goods (household and electronic appliances)
Medical devices

Advantages

Screen printing ink for directly injected plastic parts using FIM/IMD in-mold technology
solvent-based, 2-component ink system, suited for printing onto the reverse side of PC decorating foils, and for direct injection with PC or PC/ABS (85 % PC/15 % ABS)
high flexibility, high temperature resistance, excellent adhesion to injection-moulded resins (PC)
Non-conductive Black for IME (Inmold Electronics) - black shade with high resistance values; fully compatible with conductive inks
High washout resistance - enables direct injection during the FIM process
No additional layer of adhesion promoter ("tie coat") necessary - saving of at least one printed layer; minimisation of layer thickness and costs!
