Amount

Solvent Inks: Add up 10% by weight and mix thoroughly.

UV Inks: Add up to 5% by weight and mix thoroughly.

Refer to each ink series technical data sheet for specific recommendations.

Pot Life

Pot life of ink/catalyst mixture is dependent on the amount of NB80 used. UV inks with 5% NB80, and solvent inks with 10% NB80 have an expected pot life of 6 - 8 hours. Halftone inks will have a shorter pot life, normally 2 - 3 hours.

Curing

Refer to each ink system's technical data sheet for recommended cure parameters.

Note: Improved adhesion will be demonstrated within 24 hours. The NB80 may continue to react, improving ink film properties over the next several days.

Storage

NB80 reacts with moisture and temperature. Store tightly covered at temperatures between 65°-90°F (18°-32°C). Mix only enough ink that is needed for the day's production run. Ink taken from the press should not be returned to the original container; store separately to avoid contaminating unused ink.
