Key Benefits

Why K Tint - E (Erucamide) is the preferred choice for inks and pigments formulations

01

Precision slip control — reduces surface friction of printed ink films

02

Effective anti-blocking — prevents sticking of stacked prints, films, and sheets

03

Enhanced scuff and rub resistance without affecting gloss or color

K Tint - E (Erucamide) benefits Performance engineered for Inks and Pigments
04

Rheology-neutral behavior — does not increase ink viscosity

05

Low dosage efficiency (0.2–1.0%) — precise control without over-lubrication

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about K Tint - E (Erucamide) in inks and pigments applications

K TINT-E migrates toward the ink–air interface during drying, forming a molecularly thin, continuous lubricating layer that significantly reduces surface friction without compromising adhesion or gloss.

Erucamide's controlled surface migration and molecular-level thin film formation provide precision slip control at very low dosages (0.2–1.0%), avoiding over-lubrication or haze.

Yes, K TINT-E is designed for both water-based flexographic inks and solvent-based gravure and flexo inks, as well as overprint varnish systems.

No, K TINT-E is formulated to deliver surface slip and anti-blocking performance without negatively affecting ink color strength, gloss balance, or optical clarity.

K TINT-E is added during the let-down stage using standard mixing equipment at 0.2–1.0% loading. Pre-dispersion in a compatible carrier may further improve distribution.
