 Product Fact Sheet Tech Data Sheet MSDS
QX-1 is an SBQ sensitized, hybrid dual-cure emulsion that
combines the convenience and shelf life of SBQ with the durability, versatility,
and imaging properties of dual-cure emulsion.
QX-1 is compatible with all plastisol, UV, and solvent-based ink systems.
Its matte finish virtually eliminates printing problems associated with
high and low humidity conditions. QX-1 is formulated to provide wide exposure
latitude and is easily reclaimed even if underexposed and used with aggressive
inks and washup solvents.
QX-1 is durable and has excellent resolution, good definition, and very
good wet strength. 37% solids content provides good stencil
build per coat, excellent bridging of coarse mesh, and fast drying.
QX-1 is presensitized, and must be handled in yellow safe light conditions
before exposure.
