Drying Accelerator

G Dryer

■ Features

  • One component type additive that accelerates oxidative polymerization of oil-based offset inks.

  • It expedites drying during printing by reacting with water in the dampening solution and releasing oxygen.

  • Add within 1~ 3%. Adding more than specified amount does not add to effectiveness.

  • It is ideal for low-absorbent, synthetic and matte coated papers.

  • In perfect printing it prevents drying defects due to hypoxia in areas where images on both side face each other.

  • It is free of lead and cobalt. (Contains manganese)

  • It is not affected by dampening water's pH.

■ Handling Instructions

  • Not useable for waterless lithographic printing.

  • Cannot be used for light (simple) offset printing.

  • Do not apply G Dryer to the front side of synthetic paper in double-sided printing. It causes back ghosting. Use G Dryer for rear side printing.

  • Pay attention to the drying of ink on the rollers, because the drying is accelerated even in the printing press.

  • With the passage of time G Dryer's vegetable oil contents can cause skinning by reacting with the oxygen in the air. Even if this occurs, simply remove the film. The performance is unaffected.
