Uvijet inks dry instantly when activated by UV radiation so they remain stable in the printhead, ensuring faithful reproduction, whilst drying fast enough to keep up with the speed of the modern digital print press.
Micro-V Pigment Dispersion
Using the unique Micro-V dispersion technology, Uvijet inks provide vibrant, durable, ultra-wide gamut colours using automotive grade pigments with the highest lightfastness rating to ensure your prints last and last.
The Uvijet range is designed to print onto paper, board and a wide range of plastics.
Uvijet Adhesion Promoter and Adhesion Master have been specifically developed to aid adhesion and mechanical abrasion resistance of Sericol’s Uvijet digital ink systems onto a wider range of rigid substrates such as: Acrylic,Gloss Rigid PVC, Polycarbonate, Fluted Polyolefin and PETG.
Uvijet Adhesion Promoter ZE680
ZE680 is an optically clear, fast drying solvent-based primer developed to facilitate adhesion between Uvijet UV curable digital inks and plastic materials such as Gloss Rigid PVC, Acrylic and PETG. Uvijet adhesion promoter ZE680 creates a chemical bond between Uvijet digital inks and the substrate surface. Developed from Sericol’s detailed understanding of decorating rigid materials, ZE680 Adhesion Promoter can also be used to clean surface contamination from substrates prior to printing.The use of ZE680 will modify the surface energy of the substrate and as a result the print quality achievable may be enhanced further. Uvijet Adhesion Promoter ZE680 is available in 1 kg containers.
Uvijet Adhesion Master ZE720
ZE720 is an optically clear, slower drying solvent-based primer specifically developed to improve adhesion of Uvijet onto the more difficult rigid materials such as Fluted Polyolefins and Polycarbonate. Because of the inert nature of polyolefin materials such as ‘Correx’ and ‘Priplac’ the drying time for ZE720 is longer than that of ZE680, with drying times in a well-ventilated area of 10–20 minutes required in order to achieve full adhesion. ZE720 primer can also be used to improve adhesion and mechanical abrasion resistance onto polycarbonate sheets such as ‘Lexan’. Uvijet Adhesion Master ZE720 is available in 1 kg containers.

HINTS AND TIPS
Size matters – Uvijet Digital Ink Technologies
Wide format inkjet technology is a merger of large and small. To produce large format point of sale material, the finest particles are required to achieve the quality needed.
