JELCON VS SERIES
(UV CUTTING CLEAR)

INTRODUCTIONS

JELCON VS is one-component over coat clear. UV cutting rate is improved with special absorber of ultra violet ray in this ink. JELCON-VS dries at room temperature.

APPLICATIONS

Package printing to protect the content of the package, to prevent fading of the fluorescent colors, to prevent the color fading or degrading by UV.

CHARACTERISTICS

1. Good adhesion to acryl, rigid vinyl, general plastics such as polycarbonate and general vinyl stickers.
   JELCON VS dries at room temperature.
2. High absorption of ultra violet ray. UV of less than 340-350nm can be cut. (Usually UV of less than 300nm is cut.)
3. Good stability. As UV absorber does not bleed, the initial absorbing rate is maintained for a long time.
4. Good resistance to oil, alcohol and chemicals.

• VS-15 : Cutting UV of less than 350nm. Ink film is harder than VS-10.
