Fountain Additive

K Fount 320

Properties

Dampening additive for sheet-fed offset presses.

K-FOUNT 320 is an additive of the new generation for high speed presses.

K-FOUNT 320 thanks to the dynamic surfactants in the formulation, allows to obtain an excellent print quality.

K-FOUNT 320 behaves optimally even in UV printing.

Characteristics

PRINCIPLE CHARACTERISTICS

K-FOUNT 320 gives to the damping solution high stability of pH and conductivity values, maintaining its efficiency in time.

K-FOUNT 320 contains innovative raw materials that do not permit the oxide deposit on the rollers, improving the spreading of the water film on the plate.

K-FOUNT 320 improves the ink setting increasing the safety in high pile even on elevated speeds. 

K-FOUNT 320 is formulated in a way to result with a low environmental impact, thanks to its vegetable origin components.

K-FOUNT 320 is recommended for medium soft waters.

 

ADVANTAGES/BENEFITS

  1. Dampening solution efficient and stable in time, with consequent reduction of regeneration costs
  2. Drastic reduction of start-up times
  3. Sharp and brilliant printing
  4. Elimination of build ups on blankets and on dampening rollers
  5. Total elimination of oxide from rollers and blankets
  6. Minor environmental impact

 

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE:

Dilute K-FOUNT 320 in percentage of 2-3% depending on original water quality, adding a percentage of 5-7% of IPA.
