With the need to
provide the correct fountain solution for specific requirements, Ultrachem
has developed an exceptional range of products for complete dampening
solution control.
The range encompasses the latest fount solution technology and caters
for all printing requirements. All solutions are manufactured using
the latest materials, are buffered to the optimum pH level and take
account of differing water hardnesses. All founts contain anti-foaming
agents and environmentally safe biocides. |
Using Ultrachem
fount additives the following benefits can be achieved:
- Optimum ink transfer producing high density copies immediately
- Exceptional stability of the ink/water balance
- Considerable reduction in ink piling and/or paper linting on
the blanket
- Fully controlled water pick-up by the ink
- Faster, cleaner start-ups
- Prevention or containment of bacterial growth
- Maximum foam reduction

Product Overview
CS-T18 alcohol free fountain solution is specially developed for Off-set Alcohol Machine based on certain scientific theory. With it, no alcohol or isopropyl alcohol is required. 1L of the product may take place of 10-20L alcohol and 3L other traditional dampening liquid. It can improve the printing security environment (beneficial to storage and application) and it is good for the performance of ISO14001 and ISO18001. The dampening performance of CS-T18 is more stable than traditional alcohol dampening liquid. CS-T18 series dampening liquid has passed CCEL, SGS certificate. Prior to use, please refer to the Operating Introduction Book.
Scope of Application:
CS-T18 alcohol free dampening liquid mainly is applied to various alcohol printing machines and planographic printing machines, and it is also applied to PS version or CTP version.
Matching Procedure:
The dilution degree of CS-T18 Dampening Liquid free alcohol (GB5749 water) is 0.8%-2.0%.
Product Characteristics:
1. Dampening speed is fast, suitable for high speed printing machine for green printing.
2. Because of the thin water film, the ink’s transfer and brightness are guaranteed.
3. With strong adaptability to various inks, it can speed up the dryness of ink and the shaping of presswork, and it also can prevent stickiness.
4. Dampening liquid contains water-reserving element, which can protect the printing plate at stop-press.
5. Contain bacteriostatic agent preventing bacteria breeding in water skip.
6. Contain special additive to protect the parts of the machine from erosion and reduce or remove the accumulation on rubber sheet.
Adjust the key parameter of water to more favorable scope and reduce the requirement of water by dampening liquid.
8. 100% VOC FREE, not easy to volatize. At printing, the CD value is stable and reliable and the printing quality is stable.
9. 100% alcohol or IPA free; safe and easy to use and convenient to store.
