FORMULATION TRIAL

A focused cyan evaluation.

Prepare a cyan drawdown or print trial with the intended binder, humectants and other formulation components. Compare the colour against your agreed target and record the paper, film or other substrate used.

Connect colour development to the printhead and fluid path. Review filtration, circulation and storage observations alongside the relevant particle-size profile, viscosity, conductivity, surface tension and pH results.

For a CMYK programme, discuss Cyan 6900 with AIC-Magenta Red 1015, AIC-Yellow 2024 and AIC-Black 0058. Each colour still needs its own current data and qualification in your ink formula.

The published application routes include DTF, DTG, GTF, desktop pigment inks and corrugated digital printing. Plan the final ink trial around the intended printhead, substrate and process.
