VANCRYL® 937

VANCRYL® 937 is a medium glass transition temperature acrylic emulsion for the graphic arts industry. Excellent gloss can be obtained by utilizing VANCRYL® 937 in inks and coatings. Its film formation properties, coupled with its rapid water release, result in very fast drying. It is suitable for both flexographic and gravure printing on paper substrates. VANCRYL® 937 has excellent compatibility with pigment dispersions and alcohols. Inks formulated with VANCRYL® 937 have good transfer, printability, and resolubility for high-quality printing on various paper substrates (including metalized paper) and aluminum foil. VANCRYL 937 can also be formulated as a high gloss OPV that will very quickly develop water, oil, and scuff resistance.
