• Long term exterior performance with proven resistance to the effects of UV degradation and color fade.
• High impact, high intensity colors with extended color gamut
• Consistent color density values
• Heat Bendable

Substrates

• Acrylics
• Lexan
• Reinforced vinyl banner, pressure sensitive vinyl, and window cling
• Styrene
• Sintra® and other Expanded PVC products
• Rigid Polyethylene
• Fluted Polypropylene
• Foamboard
• Polycarbonate

Adhesion should always be tested as adhesion does depend upon curing conditions, age and manufacturer of substrate.

Ink Handling

All personnel mixing and handling this product must wear gloves and eye protection. Clean up all spills immediately. If ink does come in contact with skin, wipe ink off with a clean, dry cloth (do not use solvent or flush solution). Wash the affected area with soap and water. Consult the Nazdar® 730 Series Safety Data Sheet for further instructions and warnings.

Ink Changeover

Thoroughly clean your current ink system and jet assemblies with LWU7001FF UV Flush Solution. Avoid contact with skin. Wear protective safety glasses and appropriate gloves when handling flush solution. Consult SDS for proper procedures for using Flush solution. Complete conversions procedures available upon request.

When UV inkjet equipment is not in use for extended periods, the ink should be flushed from the printheads to avoid unwanted in-head curing from stray light sources.

Curing Parameters

Nazdar® 730 Series Ink has been formulated to cure when exposed to a focused, medium pressure mercury vapor lamp providing 225 - 300 mJ/cm² and 600 mW/cm². (EIT Uvicure Plus radiometer, measuring the UVA spectrum)

Clean Up

For clean-up of ink spills and equipment use LWU7001FF UV Maintenance Solution.

Storage/Shelf Life

Store ink and flush solutions at 18° - 27° C (65° - 80° F). Ink and flush solutions should always be kept away from heat, sparks, and flames. If stored at a different temperature, the ink should be allowed to reach room temperature before calibration or printing. The shelf life of this product is 12 months from the date of manufacture when stored under prescribed conditions.

Ink Performance

Outdoor Durability

When Nazdar® 730 Series Ink is used with the proper color management; color variance will be minimal over a period of 24 months' vertical outdoor exposure. Outdoor durability is based on actual outdoor weather testing in the central U.S. on statically mounted substrates. Results for regions with extreme weather conditions or applications other than static signage may vary significantly and should be tested by the end user.

To ensure Nazdar® 730 Series Ink density and hue values do not change during outdoor exposure, it is important to use proven substrates (flexible vinyls and pressure sensitive vinyls) that do not "yellow" or vary from their original white cast when exposed outdoors.
