New Products:
* Joncryl LMV 7010 Comments: Joncryl LMV 7010 is a low press
maintenance colloidal emulsion for corrugated packaging inks. It
eliminates the use of organic amines to gain pH and viscosity stability
on press. Now it is possible to formulate cost effective, low
maintenance inks for corrugated packaging that do not rely on organic
amines or press side additives to maintain on-press stability.
* Joncryl 642 Comments: Joncryl 642 is a generalpurpose colloidal
solution designed as a letdown vehicle for corrugated inks. It reduces
the cost of standard corrugated inks without compromising color strength
or on-press performance.
* Joncryl HPD 296 Comments: Joncryl HPD 296 is a high performance
dispersion resin solution that enables stable, high solids, low
viscosity pigment dispersions. It enables high strength, low viscosity
dispersions for use in inks for fine line anilox printing; improves
shock and storage stability to reduce waste and improve milling
efficiency and throughput.
* Joncryl FLX 5000 Comments: Joncryl FLX 5000 is a
self-crosslinking emulsion with excellent press resolubility that rivals
solvent-based ink performance on polyethylene film. It develops
excellent rub, wet crinkle and deep freeze resistance and adhesion to
polyolefin films providing a cost effective and
environmentally-compliant alternative to solvent-based inks.

New Products:
* Cinergi 2149 and Cinergi 2150 Comments: Cinergi 2149 and Cinergi
2150 are sheetfed vehicle systems providing low polarity properties,
improving on press performance by widening the water window and
providing rheological stability in the lithographic process and press
stability.
* Uroset 1000 Comments: Uroset 1000 is a pigment dispersion vehicle
useful in both heat-set and sheetfed applications where the need is for
higher pigment loading and for softer bodied dispersions. Uroset 1000
provides fast durable film forming properties, improved gloss, transfer
and leveling properties in most systems.
* Terlon 310 and Terlon 610 Comments: Terlon 310 and Terlon 610 are
new alkyd systems which enhance pigment wetting and improves the color
development, speeding up the flushing process. Terlon 310 series is
lin-seed-based and the Terlon 610 series is soya-based. These new alkyds
oxidize faster in thin film systems.
* Webvar 3085 Comments: Webvar 3085 is a recent development for the
high speed web offset market. The Webvar 3085 provides a new level of
performance with compelling economics. This new vehicle provides
excellent flow properties with very low tendency to mist and high press
speeds.
* Miraglaze 8720
Comments: Miraglaze 8720 is a press ready heatset overprint varnish
that provides excellent gloss, energy efficient and outstanding abrasion
resistance.
* Miraglaze 8661
Comments: Miraglaze 8661 is a cost effective, hard drying workhorse
gloss overprint varnish that yields excellent gloss, good rub, and fast
drying and is imprintable with most applications.

* KS-276--Low Tack UV Gelled Vehicle
Comments: KS-276 allows UV ink makers to manufacture UV inks in the
same manner as they do oil-based offset inks by use of pigment
dispersion and gelled letback. KS-276 has excellent litho performance,
cure speed, mist control and high gloss.
* KB-994--Fast Dry Metallic Vehicle
Comments: KB-994 is a high quality metallic ink vehicle designed to
exhibit excellent leafing characteristics and resistance to tarnish. In
KB-994, we have developed superior set speed and oxidative drying
properties while maintaining good lithographic characteristics.
* KB-845--Tabloid/Coldset Gelled Vehicle
Comments: KB-845 is a low tack, highly gelled vehicle used to
formulate tabloid inks. These inks typically exhibit excellent mileage,
litho performance and ink film integrity with very little misting at
extremely low tacks.
* KB-2018--High Performance, Work Horse Heatset Gel
Comments: KB-2018 packages a combination of high gloss, low misting
and lithographic performance with the pricing needed for the very
competitive web heatset market. KB-2018 has tremendous solvent release,
which yields very good through dry and also has efficient roller
transfer.
* KB-462--High Viscosity, Sheetfed Dispersion Vehicle
Comments: KB-462 has an unusual combination of high viscosity and
excellent pigment wetting. This allows for wide latitude in formulation.
* KB-946--Fast Setting, Sheetfed Gelled Vehicle
Comments: KB-946 is formulated to be fast setting, high gloss and
press stable at the highest press speeds. Inks made with KB-946 exhibit
superior body control, lithographic properties and show better gloss and
rub properties compared to other fast setting ink systems.
