Fast exposing SBQ/diazo sensitized films intended for use with all solvent-based
inks. Magenta colored films adherable with water or QFX® emulsion.
The CDF/QSR series (available in thicknesses of 10, 20, 30, and 40 microns,
and in rolls or custom-cut sheets) is formulated using pure photopolymer (SBQ),
technology in combination with a special diazo resin. This combination yields
very fast exposure times, excellent storage properties (conservatively speaking,
15-month shelf life; six weeks adhered to mesh time but unexposed), a minimal
influence of temperature and humidity on exposure speed, minimal changes in
solubility with age (for consistent EOM), virtually universal solvent resistance,
superb durability, and effortless stencil removal.
CDF/QSR is manufactured to the highest quality control standards in the industry:
± 1 micron. This high degree of control, in combination with the emulsion
formulation, permits a repeatable low and defined stencil profile and a low
Rz value with excellent resolution and ink transfer. Similarly, mesh bridging
is superb.
CDF/QSR has a special backing sheet with a special matte-surfaced polyester
that imparts slight irregularity to the bottom of the stencil. This has no
consequential effect on the Rz value, yet provides special benefits under
extremes of humidity. When the humidity is high and the substrate is smooth,
CDF®/QSR releases easily from the substrate after the print stroke. Under
low humidity conditions, the CDF®/QSR stencil has minimal hydrostatic attraction
to the substrate, minimizing ink "feathering" or "whiskering."
CDF/QSR is produced with a special magenta colour that reduces light transmission
under the edges of the positives, offers contrast for easier stencil inspection,
yet permits the see-through registration of multi-screen jobs. This colour
is environmentally safe and contains no heavy metals or other ecologically-damaging
components in the formulation.
CDF/QSR is ideal for the reproduction of the finest details and for thin
ink deposits applications on fine screen meshes. It is recommended for such
higher quality screen making applications as: graphics, printed circuit boards,
compact discs, membrane switches, ceramic decals, glass (automotive, architectural,
cosmetic, pharmaceutical, hollowware, slot machines), and high resolution
textile requirements.
