Particles and agglomerates over 3 micron are virtually absent, so SCC is suitable for silk screen and tampon inks, together with other aqueous based inks where the print thickness is very small.
The easier mixing of SCC with pigments and the better rheology give improved ink transfer properties along with excellent opacity and brightness.
SCC contains very low amounts of heavy metals. This satisfies the increasing need of ink industry for food contact certification.
