Hardeners


KIWOSET A-WR
Hardener for chemically curable screen printing and textile printing emulsions

KIWOSET A-WR is an acidic, aqueous solution for the chemical hardening of photoemulsions. It can easily be distributed and forms an evenly spread film which enables a homogeneous curing result. KIWOSET A-WR is especially suitable for textile and ceramic printing. It can also be used to increase the chemical and mechanical stability of screen or textile printing stencils. Photoemulsions hardened with KIWOSET A-WR are difficult to decoat or even undecoatable due to the achieved high resistances.

KIWOSET E-WR
Hardener for chemically curable screen printing and textile printing emulsions

KIWOSET E-WR is an acidic, aqueous solution for the chemical hardening of photoemulsions. It can easily be distributed and forms an evenly spread film which enables a homogeneous curing result. Especially suitable for textile printing screens with which alkaline or acidic media (vat caustics) are printed. In some cases, it is recommended to make trials with the respective emulsion beforehand. In particular cases, KIWOSET E-WR can be used reduced with water in a ratio of 1:1 to 1:3. In general, photoemulsions treated with KIWOSET E-WR are very difficult to decoat or even undecoatable due to the achieved high resistances.

KIWOSET FL
Hardener for chemically curable photoemulsions

KIWOSET FL is an acidic solution for the chemical hardening of photoemulsions. It can easily be distributed and forms an evenly spread fil which enables a homogeneous curing result. KIWOSET FL is used specifically in solar cells and electronic printing where steel mesh is used. Photoemulsions hardened with KIWOSET FL are difficult to decoat or even undecoatable due to high resistance performance of the stencils.

KIWOSET K-T
Hardener for chemically curable screen printing and textile printing emulsions

KIWOSET K-T is an acidic, aqueous solution for the chemical hardening of screen printing and textileprinting emulsions (refer to the technical data sheets of the respective emulsions). It can easily bedistributed using a brush and forms an evenly spread film which enables a homogeneous curing result.No residue remains in the open areas after evaporation of the hardener.

KIWOSET LO
Hardener for chemically curable photoemulsions used in screen and textile printing, mild odour

KIWOSET LO is a diluted aqueous acid with very mild odour for the chemical hardening of photoemulsions. It can easily be distributed and forms an evenly spread film which enables a homogeneous curing result. KIWOSET LO is especially suitable for textile printing. It can also be used to increase the chemical and mechanical stability of screen- or textile-printing stencils. Photoemulsions hardened with KIWOSET LO are difficult to decoat or even undecoatable due to the achieved high resistances.
