Pigments for solvent-based and UV curable ink jet inks Cinquasia, Cromophtal, Heliogen, Irgalite, Irgazin, and Paliotol Coloristic performance is a key parameter when selecting a pigment for solvent and energy curable ink formulations. Although other factors should be taken into account, our high performance organic pigments have been found to be particularly suitable for use in solvent and energy curable digital inks. These pigments combine outstanding tinctorial properties with excellent rheology in acrylate systems and offer outstanding resistance to light, weather, heat, chemicals, and solvents. Although this list represents the primary selections, BASF offers additional colorants, which cover a wide range of chemical types, shades, and fastness performance.

Additives Irgastab in-can stabilizer Irganox antioxidant Energy curable formulations containing acrylate reactive diluents and oligomers, photoinitiators, and pigments are sensitive to early polymerization during storage. This is particularly true for highly reactive systems based on multifunctional acrylates, as used in printing applications. Therefore, the addition of an efficient stabilizer, such as Irgastab UV 22, against premature polymerization is necessary to provide long-term stability of the energy curable ink formulation during its life cycle. In addition, the antioxidant Irganox 1520 L can be added directly into the ink formulation to protect the colorant and binder against photo-oxidation, which will also help increase the lifetime of the digitally printed image. Product Chemistry Details Irgastab UV 22 Hindered phenol 14% solution in GPTA, inhibits early polymerization in UV inks and coatings Igranox 1520 L Hindered phenol Multifunctional, liquid phenolic antioxidant 17
UV absorbers and hindered amine light stabilizers Tinuvin Digitally printed signs and graphics are sometimes over-lacquered with an overprint varnish to improve the weatherability. BASF offers a broad selection of UV absorbers that can easily be incorporated into waterbased, solvent-based, or energy curable overprint varnish formulations. Due to broad spectral coverage and very high extinction, our UV absorbers provide excellent performance and photostability by filtering harmful UV light and protecting the underlying image against fading. In addition, the overprint varnish itself can be protected against light degradation (cracking, loss of gloss, delamination, etc.) by the addition of hindered amine light stabilizers (HALS) in coating formulations. Alternatively, they can be added directly into the ink formulation to help protect the colorant and binder against photo-oxidation, which will also increase the lifetime of the digitally printed image. Product Chemistry Details Tinuvin 123 Hindered amine light stabilizer (HALS) Aminoether HALS that minimizes defects such as cracking and gloss reduction Tinuvin 123-DW Hindered amine light stabilizer (HALS) Non-basic, non-interacting encapsulated HALS for zero/low VOC water-based formulations Tinuvin 292 Tinuvin 171 Tinuvin 384-2 Tinuvin 928 Tinuvin 400-DW Tinuvin 460 Tinuvin 479 Hindered amine light stabilizer (HALS) Hydroxyphenyl-benzotriazole Hydroxyphenyl-benzotriazole Hydroxyphenyl-benzotriazole Hydroxyphenyl-triazine Hydroxyphenyl-triazine Hydroxyphenyl-triazine HALS that provides significantly extended lifetime to coatings by minimizing defects such as cracking and loss of gloss UV absorber suitable for photographic applications where initial yellowing must be kept to a minimum UV absorber with a high thermal stability and environmental permanence suitable for coatings exposed to high bake cycles and/or extreme environmental conditions UV absorber that provides excellent solubility, high thermal and environmental permanence for high performance coating applications and light sensitive substrates Encapsulated UV absorber with high extinction in the UVB range for high performance applications and/or zero to low VOC water-based formulations UV absorber that provides outstanding protection to coatings and light sensitive substrates UV absorber that provides excellent performance in thin film applications and very high photostability 18
