Chromaline ChromaLime Photopolymer Emulsion - 1 Gallon
Premium one-part pure photopolymer screen printing emulsion engineered for high-resolution imaging, fast exposure, exceptional durability, and outstanding resistance to plastisol, UV, and solvent-based inks.
Characteristics
Chromaline ChromaLime Photopolymer Emulsion is a professional-grade, ready-to-use pure photopolymer emulsion developed for screen printers who demand outstanding image quality, production efficiency, and long stencil life. Designed for direct application without diazo mixing, ChromaLime delivers consistent coating performance, excellent edge definition, and rapid exposure speeds, making it ideal for high-volume production environments.
Its advanced photopolymer formulation produces extremely sharp detail, smooth stencil surfaces, and excellent mesh bridging across a wide range of mesh counts. ChromaLime maintains exceptional stencil durability while resisting breakdown from plastisol, UV-curable, and many solvent-based ink systems. The durable stencil reduces touch-ups and remakes while maintaining consistent print quality throughout long production runs.
ChromaLime features excellent coating characteristics with low tack, smooth flow, and fast drying, allowing operators to produce uniform stencil thickness for consistent ink transfer. Its distinctive green color improves stencil visibility during exposure, inspection, and reclaiming while providing excellent contrast for quality control.
Ideal for textile, graphic, industrial, electronics, and specialty screen printing applications, Chromaline ChromaLime is compatible with both manual and automatic coating techniques and performs exceptionally well with LED, metal halide, and traditional exposure systems.
