Application features
SOLVENT REACTIVE INKS can be printed both in waterless and conventional offset. For conventional offset, any kind of alcohol or substitute must be removed from the dampening solution, to prevent its reaction with the ink. SOLVENT REACTIVE INKS must not be combined with conventional inks as they would lose their reaction power. Media: Usual media for these inks are porous media. Their use on plastics is not recommended.
