Propylux
Glossy air drying ink intended for printing on polypropylene, frequently encountered as Akilux® and Priplak® brands.
It can adhere to untreated polypropylene (use of bonding primer), but flaming or Corona treatment, when possible, further improves its performance.
The Propylux ink was designed for printing on fluted or sheet polypropylene.
These inks should not be used for printing on thin films (sheaths).
The adhesion primer (ref. 3302070) improves the adherence of Propylux ink on untreated substrates.
This ink can be printed of specific substrate such as dry erase board coated with varnish.
