Key Features

NuTone21 is a high gloss, regular tint strength pigment black that can be used for Gravure ink applications. It is suitable for liquid inks preparation, that require excellent flow, gloss, and strength. It is also recommended for application of UV offset. Due to oxidized surface, NuTone21 has good dispersibility and stability in most of the ink applications. NuTone21 can be easily dispersed with appropriate mixing equipment to obtain good jetness and stability in liquid ink formulations, however dispersion ability of pigment black depends on the equipment used and the formulation.
