Chromaline DC 565 premium, universal, red dual cure photo-emulsion is intended for all extreme textile and graphic printing applications. With medium viscosity and an extremely high 46% solids, DC 565 yields high stencil buildup with low Rz. It offers superior resolution, wide exposure latitude, and outstanding performance. Sensitizer included in the package.
Performance Properties:
- Universal photo emulsion for all inks
- Resists solvent lock-in from lacquer thinners and mineral spirits
- Excellent durability to withstand long runs
Shelf Life - Approximate shelf life for this emulsion is 24 month (2 years) when stored at room temperature. It should not be stored at temperatures above 80f (27c) or below 37f (0c). For best results it should only be stored in its original container.
Emulsion Exposure Differences
Proper screen exposure must take many factors into account – the emulsion type, coating thickness, exposure unit, etc. As a general guideline for the different emulsion types (diazo, dual cure, and photopolymer) use these times as a reference.
Photopolymer – These are typically the fastest exposing emulsions, with many exposing correctly from 30-50 seconds. The shortest times can be seen when using a newer LED-type exposure unit.
Dual Cure – If you have established a good exposure time with photopolymer emulsions, you can typically add 90 seconds (1.5 minutes) to that time for most dual cure emulsions.
Diazo - If you have established a good exposure time with photopolymer emulsions, you can typically add 210 seconds (3.5 minutes) to that time for most diazo emulsions.
These times will depend heavily on your exposure unit and should only be considered as a starting point.
