Mediums for direct printing

Specifications

Thinning oil and medium

The thinning oil or medium to be used for thinning the pastes should be specified by the paste manufacturer. The medium must burn away cleanly during firing, so as not to cause "Blistering". Only use the minimum amount of thinning medium to adjust paste to screening viscosity.

Property of thinning oil

U.V. ink

As oil for direct printing, this is a medium cured by U.V. radiation against a medium for the I.R. drying by a heat General properties are the same to medium for I.R. type but need U.V. lamp instead of a dry kiln.

UV ink	Thinning oil/oil based	Accumulated Intensity of Radiation(A.I.R) 1,400mj/cm2

Thermoplastic color (Hot color)

The Hot colors consist of thermoplastic medium that starts to melt at 70~80°C and is printed on cold substrate. The melting temperature must not be over 100C as that causes unacceptable printing results in colors. Prepare liquid form of paste color after heated to approx. 75±5°C and start to print. Stainless steel is recommended for screens and heat by DC electric current.
