Proell KG's core business lies in the development of custom-made chemical products for coating/decorating plastics and other materials, as well as innovative ink systems for IMD/FIM technology, and screen and pad printing inks.Norilux DC
Norilux DC is a formable, abrasion and chemically resistant Dual Cure screen printing lacquer. Norilux DC can be used as protective lacquer or hard coat on PC, PMMA, ABS and PP films.Norilux DC is ideally suited for first surface coating/protection of products manufactured in IMD/FIM technology.
The glossy version of the dual cure lacquer can be printed on textured film surfaces to produce abrasion resistant and transparent display windows.
The matt version of Norilux DC can be printed on uncured transparent hard coat films such as Makrofol HF 278 or 312 to create matt and high gloss effects in one item.
Besides the high glossy Norilux DC lacquer, various satin gloss, textured and matt grades as well as pigmented and UV stabilized versions are available.
Tactile surface structures e.g. brush effects and 3D patterns can be printed with the highly resistant lacquer.
The lacquer can be used for overprinting silicone-free UV, solvent and water-based screen printing inks as well.
Norilux DC dries by evaporation of the solvents in jet dryers. Films decorated with Norilux DC can be 3D formed after box oven drying e.g. by high pressure forming or thermo forming. Afterwards, the formed films must be UV cured. The cured lacquer layer shows excellent resistances to abrasion, chemicals and cleaning agents and passes various creme tests of the automobile industry.
In automotive interior, center stacks, touch panels and decorative trims are first surface protected with Norilux DC. Even mobile phone covers and sanitary panels are overprinted with the highly resistant lacquer. Second surface decoration is printed with the IMD/FIM ink system Noriphan HTR N.
