IGI 100
BIO-SIL IGI/100 is a 100% antifoam compound contains silica derived components specifically formulated for foam control in solvent inks and the pigment grind phase of aqueous inks. BIO-SIL IGI/100 also aids air release in non-aqueous, UV-curable inks. BIO-SIL IGI/100 is not mineral oil based so won’t swell the rubber rolls or plates used in the application of aqueous flexographic inks. BIO-SIL IGI/100 is not recommended for printing inks to be applied over metal substrates. This de-foamer is indirect food contact safe and solvent free.
