QLT /QLT RED | Pre-Sensitized Solvent Resistant Emulsion - If used with diazo, excellent resistance for long runs with water-based inks.
We introduced QLT in April 2008 as an ultra-fast SBQ textile emulsion with high viscosity (7,200 CPS) and solids (+ 43%). Almost as an afterthought, we mentioned that it resists most washup solvents. That has proved to be a key feature now that many ink manufacturers are reformulating plastisols to eliminate phthalates as plasticizers. As it happens, the replacement plasticizers contain more aggressive solvents. QLT is quickly gaining new imprinted sportswear customers who now require an emulsion with better solvent resistance
