Applications and Performance 
TiLink^TM titanate TCA-AA75 is an adhesion promoter and cross-linker that are essential additives for flexographic and gravure printing inks which are widely used at flexible packaging industry.

Flexible packaging has become an important component of product marketing. Packaging materials usually include a non-absorbing foil based on polyolefin (polyethylene, polypropylene, or co-extruded polypropylene), polyester, polyamide, cellophane, PVC, metallized plastic, or aluminum. Printing on these foils can help to motivate consumers to purchase products, provide information, and offer decorative enhancement.

Typical print platforms for flexible packaging are flexography and rotogravure processes that require specialized inks. The type of ink most often used contains nitrocellulose (NC) as the primary binder.

For flexographic and gravure package printing, TiLink^TM titanate TCA-AA75 helps to improve the final product properties. This is achieved by TCA-AA75 acting as a cross-linker for the binder and as an adhesion promoter between the ink and substrate, which provides the following benefits:

• Improved adhesion of the ink to the substrate

• Enhanced curing

• Improved chemical, solvent, and water resistance

• Enhanced heat resistance

• Decreased drying times or lower cure temperatures

• Increased lamination bond strength
