Chromaline ChromaBlue Photopolymer Emulsion - 50 Gallon Drum
Fast-exposing pure photopolymer screen printing emulsion engineered for plastisol, UV, and solvent-based inks, delivering outstanding resolution, durability, and production efficiency.
Characteristics
Chromaline ChromaBlue Photopolymer Emulsion is a ready-to-use, one-component pure photopolymer emulsion designed for high-volume screen printing operations requiring fast exposure speeds, excellent stencil durability, and outstanding image resolution. The emulsion is pre-sensitized, eliminating mixing errors while providing consistent coating and imaging performance from the first screen to the last.
Engineered for production environments, ChromaBlue offers excellent resistance to plastisol, UV-curable, and solvent-based inks, making it an ideal choice for textile, graphic, industrial, and specialty printing applications. Its durable stencil withstands long production runs while maintaining sharp edge definition and fine detail reproduction.
The fast exposure characteristics of ChromaBlue help reduce imaging times and increase throughput without sacrificing stencil quality. Its smooth coating properties produce consistent emulsion over mesh, allowing printers to achieve excellent ink control, precise halftones, and clean line definition across a wide variety of mesh counts.
Compatible with traditional metal halide exposure systems as well as modern LED exposure units that emit the appropriate UV wavelength, Chromaline ChromaBlue is an excellent choice for shops seeking reliable production, repeatable results, and reduced screen preparation time.
