| Additives | Series | Add | Effects | Consequences |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| GRA-5012 | All Standard Series | 10%–20% | Liquid additive that reduces the ink gloss to a satin finish. | Monitor cure and adhesion. |
| 972 | All Series | 2% | Will increase viscosity. | N/A |
| 070 | 02, 04, 09, 80, 88, CDG, FLT, MFLT, IM, JZB, LC, MSK, PCI, PPC, PPC7, PST, and RSP | 1%–10% | Aids in the transfer of ink through the screen by reducing ink viscosity. | May impair surface durability (scratch) as the ink [will] be softer. May affect weatherability. Monitor cure. |
| UVO-TH | DC, DM, GN, NC, RL, UT, UVB, UV9, VL, and XL6 | 1%–10% | Aids in the transfer of ink through the screen by reducing ink viscosity. | May impair surface durability (scratch) as the ink [will] be softer. May affect weatherability. Monitor cure. |
| FLX-076 | 02, 04, 80, VL, UV9, and XL6 | 1%–15% | Increases flexibility for embossing, folding or applications that require ink elongation. | Decrease in cure, weatherability, surface hardness and viscosity. |
| ADC7-10000 | All Series not used with adhesives | 5%–10% (larger % can be used but monitor color) | Increases cure and adhesion. The ADC-10000 will also aid with the appearance of static (surface tension polarity) and ink reticulation. These are our most powerful additives. | IMMEDIATE reaction with the ink. Do [not] use with any inks that require adhesive compatibility. |
| ADC7-4000 | All Series not used with adhesives | 5%–10% (larger % can be used but monitor color) | Increases cure and adhesion. The ADC-4000 will also aid with the appearance of static (surface tension polarity) and ink reticulation. These are our most powerful additives. | IMMEDIATE reaction with the ink. Do [not] use with any inks that require adhesive compatibility. |
| ADC7-250 | All Series not used with adhesives | 5%–10% (larger % can be used but monitor color) | Increases cure and adhesion. The ADC-250 will also aid with the appearance of static (surface tension polarity) and ink reticulation. These are our most powerful additives. | IMMEDIATE reaction with the ink. Do [not] use with any inks that require adhesive compatibility. |
| CUR-800 | All Series except PPC-7 & DC GN Series Blacks. Do not use on Polycarbonate | 0.5%–1% | Increases cure and adhesion, may restore intercoat on previous over-cured prints. The inks will cross link more densely. Increases water resistance. Amine — NOT FOR POLYCARBONATE. | Will increase viscosity. Can embrittle the ink. Pot life is 4 hours. Can cause the black pigmented inks in the DC & GN Series to become grey. |
| CUR-073 | All Series | 1%–3% | Increases depth of cure and cure rate. Increases surface hardness and resistance to blocking. | Reduces intercoat adhesion (monitor) and slightly increases gloss, non-yellowing. |
| DK-072 | All Series | Up to 1.5% | Improves gloss, adhesion, faster curing, chemical resistance, intercoat. | Lower gloss; excessive use may reduce intercoat adhesion. Monitor throughout print run. |
| LED#4 | All Series | Up to 10% | Increases LED cure. | Reduces viscosity; excessive use may reduce intercoat adhesion. Monitor throughout print run. |
