Water Based Varnish
McLantis manufactures world's first class water based varnish, varnish ink, varnish coating
1. Environmental protection(Can almost reach the edible level)
2. High glossy and super coating performance
3. Low unit coating area
Product Performance | Water-Based UV Varnish | Conventional products | ||
Oil UV Varnish | Old Water-Based Varnish | Laminating | ||
Environmental Protection | By the SGS testing and animal toxicity testing. Can almost reach the edible level | Contain highly toxic toluene. With TP, TM, and other carcinogenic substances | Ethylene glycol monobutyl ether (reproductive toxicity) | Glues are highly toxic, |
paper can not be recycled. | ||||
Odor | Crude oil can only smell a bit of alcohol, but the coated paper completely odor-free. | Crude oil has strong odor, the coating paper has a very strong initiator and toluene odor | The smell of ethylene glycol monobutyl ether reproductive toxicity, and ammonia odor | Strong smell of glue (toluene) |
Glossiness | Up to 98,most of the region can almost reach 90 | 10 less than water based UV Varnish for everage | 40-50 | Can reach more than 90 |
Abrasion Resistance | Four pounds pressure conditions,500 times | Four pounds pressure conditions, Around 100 times | Lower than the oil UV Varnish | Well |
Toughness - fold test | The coating will not crack or peel off at the folding place | Crack, peel off | Not peel off | At the folded place, film will peeled off from the paper |
Adhesion - the tape test | With adhesive tape on paper, the coating will not peel from the paper. | Normally will peel | Usually will peel,a little better than oil | Good |
Water Permeability | Impermeable, meet water resistance standards test. | Impermeable | Permeate Immediately | Impermeable |
Levelling Property | Can reach the laminating effect | Can see pigskin grain with naked eye | Slightly better than the oil | Good |
Curing Speed | Energy density: 8mj/cm2 (Levelling channel is not less than 2 meters) | The same as Water Based UV Varnish | Difficult to dry, need baking | |
Appearance | micro-milky |
Viscosity | 12--18S (Cai’s 4# cup 25°C) |
Solid contents | (40±3)% |
Wearing resistance | ≥200 times (4 pound /copy paper have not transparent decolouration) |
