ENTHONE AD2001
Harmonization Code : 3403.19 | Lubricating Preparations (With 70% or More Petroleum Oils) For Automotive and Other Uses
Main features
- Incremental 3 to 6% Thinning
- Post-Induction Process Control
- Extended Ink Pot Life
Product Description
ENTHONE AD2001 Thinner is a process additive for nominal viscosity adjustment of ENTHONE M-Series and 50-Series epoxy marking inks. It is introduced in small increments after the required catalyst induction period, normally at 3 to 6% by weight. The thinner extends the working pot life of the catalyzed ink and is also listed for localized equipment cleaning before ink dries or partially cures. AD2001 provides controlled viscosity reduction for screen-printing and other marking processes while remaining within the matched ENTHONE ink system.
Key features
- Incremental Viscosity Adjustment: A 3 to 6% by-weight addition provides controlled nominal viscosity reduction.
- Post-Induction Addition: AD2001 is added only after the catalyst induction period.
- Pot-Life Extension: Thinner addition extends the working pot life of catalyzed ENTHONE ink.
Applications / Suitable for
- ENTHONE M-Series viscosity adjustment
- ENTHONE 50-Series viscosity adjustment
- Localized marking-equipment cleaning before partial cure
