Projects

Inkjet Inks

Premium inks with fast cure and long outdoor life.  Inks are tuned for a hard enamel like finish.  They can also be designed for high flexibility if needed.

Ink & Coating Manufacturing

Designed and executed ink and coating manufacturing operations.  This includes staging, floor plan, and equipment selection.  Designed standard operating procedures for Production and Quality Control.  Vetted raw material suppliers and negotiated preferred terms.

UV LED Curable Coatings

A unique clear protective coating for art canvases which is crystal clear with tough but flexible properties. The final coating will not crack during framing process while mar resistant during shipping.

3D Printing Resins

UV curable resins and support materials with customized properties based on product specification, printhead and printer system design.

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.

Plastisol Ink Formulations

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

Flexographic Inks

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

Thermoformable Inks

Custom inkjet inks for thermoformable applications.  Previously, printing was done with screen printed inks.   Inkjet has eliminated the need for screens.  UV formulations can be printed and cured instantly dramatically increasing productivity, reducing waste, while driving profitability.

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.

Pigment Dispersions

Formulated a broad range of novel pigment dispersions using proprietary new pigment technologies.

Microencapsulated Materials

Designed microencapsulated materials. Microcapsules are tuned to rupture at specific compression pressure.  They may also be designed to release under specific environmental conditions.

Textile Inkjet Ink

Developed a variety of inkjet inks for high speed industrial textile printing.   Chemistry not limited to reactive dye, disperse dye, and pigment binder systems. Industrial inkjet is poised to displace standard textile dye process and make a significant and positive impact on the environment. 

Ceramic Coatings for Automotive

Formulated ceramic coatings delivering high gloss and water repellency.  Compositions can have high hardness, ambient cure, and tuned drying rates to simplify application process.

Inkjetable Food Compositions

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

Continuous Inkjet Inks

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

Lithographic Fountain Solution

Dampening solutions for high speed web offset printing presses.  Etch can be prepared as a press-ready formulation but is more often as a concentrate which is diluted with water in the pressroom.
