Screen Printing Emulsion - Kopimask
Screen Printing Emulsion - Kopimask
Emulsion for printing textiles and rigid materials by screen printing. Allows the design to be etched onto the screen and printed using solvent or water-based inks.
- Diazo photopolymer sensitizer in an additional bottle
- Available in Zoico Dual TC emulsion and Zoicocoat WR, which can be hardened with Fixaplast

<p><strong>DESCRIPTION</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Apply 1 or 2 thin layers on both sides of the mesh to ensure complete coverage</li>
<li>High image resolution and excellent resistance to solvent-based inks such as plastisols</li>
<li>Leaves the mesh smooth and ready to use</li>
<li>The Zoicocoat WR emulsion is hardenable or catalysable, with the Fixaplast hardener increasing resistance to water-based inks and prolonging the quality of the exposure</li>
</ul>

<p><strong>THINGS TO KEEP IN MIND</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Apply in a dark and enclosed space. A red or yellow bulb can be used to see the process</li>
<li>It is not advisable to expose these emulsions with LED lamps</li>
<li>For water-based inks, it is recommended to use the hardenable Zoicocoat WR emulsion (Ref. 012366)</li>
<li>Store at a temperature between <span class="azul-negrita">5 °C</span> and <span class="azul-negrita">30 °C</span> without exposure to ultraviolet light</li>
</ul>

<p><strong>APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS<br></strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Wash and remove grease or any foreign contaminants with a degreaser. Any dust particles could leave pores in the design</li>
<li>Mix the emulsion with the diazo before applying it to the mesh. Fill the diazo bottle with water and shake until dissolved. Add it to the emulsion</li>
<li>Store the emulsion in a cool, dark place and let it rest for at least <span class="azul-negrita">20 min</span> until air bubbles are removed</li>
<li>Slowly coat the screen with a squeegee</li>
<li>Let it dry horizontally in a dark environment at a temperature of <span class="azul-negrita">30 - 40 ºC</span>, with humidity of <span class="azul-negrita">30 - 50%</span>. The screen must be completely dry before exposure</li>
<li>Repeat the coating and drying process as needed to achieve the desired thickness</li>
<li>Expose the screen to UV rays with a wavelength of <span class="azul-negrita">350 - 420 nm</span>. Conduct tests to establish the appropriate exposure time, the maximum that achieves optimal resolution</li>
<li>Moisten the screen on both sides using water between <span class="azul-negrita">20 °C</span> and <span class="azul-negrita">26 °C</span>. After <span class="azul-negrita">1 -2 min</span>, rinse with greater pressure on both sides of the screen until fully developed</li>
<li>Perform a post-exposure 2-4 times the original exposure to improve print resistance</li>
<li>If using the Zoicocoat WR emulsion, the screen must be hardened. Apply the hardener with a sponge on both sides of the mesh and let it dry horizontally at <span class="azul-negrita">40 °C</span> for <span class="azul-negrita">1-2 hours</span>. It can also be done at <span class="azul-negrita">22 - 25 °C</span> for 24 hours<span class="naranja-brildor"><sup>(*)</sup></span>.</li>
</ul>
<p><span style="font-size: 10pt;"><span class="naranja-brildor"><sup>(*)</sup></span> Once the screen is hardened, recovery may be difficult.</span></p>
