DEF

Letterpress ink made for moisture-set in-line curing which consists of water-insoluble pigments and a vehicle of a water-insoluble binder dissolved in a hydrophillic solvent of glycols.

OBS

Moisture setting is done by the moisture in the air or the substrate, or by adding a spray of water or stream. Such ink is relatively odourless so it is often used in food package printing.
