High viscosity of solvent packaging ink formulated by Pigment Violet 23 is a well known problem and offers one of the biggest challenge to today’s packaging ink formulators particularly in the growing field of “fast printing” (450mps or above).

Most of violet pigments cause significant rheological problems and poor transfer at shallow cylinders. The objective is to maintain a high level of performance throughout the printing process and to ensure that acceptable flow and transfer is maintained through the long print runs. In addition, to reduce the cost of ink manufacture by maximizing production efficiency by way of concentrated ink base.
