STANDARD™ Aqua Colors

Developed for Water-Based

STANDARD™ Tint Aqua colors are high-strength, high-quality aqueous pigment dispersions in water-borne acrylic resin.

STANDARD™ Tint PR colors contain no surfactants that can often interfere with printing ink performance and durability. In laboratory tests STANDARD™ Tint PR colors have been shown to produce prints with high gloss, optimum rheology and extended stability.

In addition to their applications in the ink industry, STANDARD™ Tint RF products are often used in the coloring of rubber latex, coatings, textile printing and paper coating.
