Z-INKS AQUATINGS 226 has been formulated to provide a streak free finish, whilst possessing suitable re-solubility characteristics making it recommended for double sided work and turn applications. Back up times will depend however on substrate type, ink film weight and press conditions, although it is recommended that printed material has been left to set for at least 90 minutes prior to re-working. Optimum drying conditions would include the use of hot air knives, and IR lamps. IR lamps should be kept to a minimum, with direct stack temperatures not falling below 27°C or rise above 34°C. For short runs, stack temperatures may not reach the optimum figures, and this must be considered if attempting to back up work rapidly. Light application of a middle grade spray powder is recommended.

Waterbased emulsions should not be exposed to temperatures below 5°C or above 35°C. During cold months, it is recommended that containers are kept off of cold floors and stored on pallets. The Pulse Printing Products range of emulsions have a 12 month shelf life - if unopened and stored in the correct conditions. Manufacture date is available on the label.
