Pressure Sensitive Film

Designed a single-use, pressure sensitive film that measures pressure ranging from 0.03 to 10 Mpa (about 5.0 to 1500 psi) through peak pressure snapshots. The film captures a pressure profile via a color scale and reveals pressure distribution.

Pressure Sensitive Film

DTF Inkjet Inks

Direct to Film Inkjet inks for textile application.  Inks have a varied amount of polyurethane or acrylic.  These are designed to work with a TPU powder.

Inkjetable Food Compositions

Using only GRAS food materials, ink jettable compositions were prepared.  Formulations solve the problem of color bleed and settling.

Desserts

Continuous Inkjet Inks

Solvent based continuous inkjet ink formulations for product marking and addressing at high speed.

MSDS Preparation

We offer customized MSDS preparation services to meet the specific needs of your organization. Our lab will ensures that every sheet we prepare contains all the essential information related to occupational safety and health, including hazards, safe handling, storage, and disposal. With our MSDS preparation services, you can be sure that your organization complies with all the relevant safety regulations.

SDS

Medical Coatings

Developed high-performance coatings for medical instruments, offering innovative solutions with and without PTFE. PTFE-free formulations maintain low coefficients of friction (COF) and ensure excellent slip, rub resistance, and moisture barrier properties. These coatings meet strict safety and performance requirements while eliminating the risk of PFAS, making them ideal for medical applications.

PTFE-Free Formulation

Developed PTFE-free formulations for inks and coatings. Eliminated the risk of PFAS while maintaining functional performance related to slip, rub resistance, and moisture barrier properties.

PTFE

Plastisol Ink Formulations

PVC resin based inks which cure under gentle heat into a flexible but tough finish for screen printing textiles.

Plastisol Ink

Flexographic Inks

Compositions with excellent, open time, transfer properties and cure in both water and solvent based systems. Radiation cure is also an option.

Washable Inks for Recycling Plastic

Formulation and guidance on inks used on plastics.   Inks which meet the  APR’s PET-CG-02, Critical Guidance Protocol for Clear PET Articles with Labels and Closures, will not bleed during recycling process.  This allows the recycled plastic to be used in new clear plastic bottles supporting global recycling efforts.
