Description

Volatile Organic Compounds have been a part of product identification since continuous ink jet printing was introduced to wire and cable manufacturing. Methyl ethyl ketone has played an important role in fast-dry inks which adhere to common wire jacketing materials. Changes in regulations require changes in ink jet inks, but performance must not suffer. The use of VOC-exempt inks, combine with reduced make-up consumptions provide today’s manufacturers with a way to eliminate the ink jet marking process from their emissions permitting.
