Product Info
Texprint Self Cure Catalyst
This powerful catalyst eliminates the need for high-temperature curing, making it the perfect solution for heat-sensitive fabrics and complex garment dyeing processes. Experience superior print quality, unmatched durability, and a simplified production workflow that drives efficiency and excellence.Product Specification
| Feature | Specification |
| Product Name | Texprint Self-Cure Catalyst |
| Manufacturer | Ink Tec Inc. |
| Country of Origin | USA |
| Product Type | Printing ink Self Cure Catalyst / Additive |
| Primary Function | Enhances ink durability and wash-fastness without requiring heat curing. |
| Recommended Addition | 5-8% of the ink weight. |
| Curing Time | Gels and hardens within 24 hours. |
| Compatibility | Specially formulated for use with Texprint ink series. |
| Packaging | 1 kg, 5 kg containers (packaging may vary). |
| Storage | Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. |
| Net Contents | Varies by packaging. |
Advantage & Features
It is recommended to add 5.0% to 10.0% of Self Cure Catalyst to the ink before printing. The amount used will determine the durability level of the printed product. Once the catalyst is mixed, the ink will begin to gel or harden within 96 hours, so only small quantities should be added at a time to avoid wastage.
Applications
The Texprint Self-Cure Catalyst is an indispensable tool for a wide range of textile printing applications, particularly within Bangladesh’s export-oriented garment industry.
- Workwear and Uniforms: Perfect for printing logos and designs on uniforms that are subjected to frequent, industrial-strength laundering.
- Fashion and Specialty Printing: Excellent for fashion garments that undergo special post-printing treatments like dyeing or bleaching, as the catalyst protects the print from these harsh processes.
- Sportswear: The catalyst’s ability to provide a durable finish makes it suitable for printing on athletic apparel, ensuring the designs remain intact through intense use and washing.
