SV5 Ink Retarder is used to modify the solvent evaporation rate in Marabu screen and pad print inks. Only add SV5 to ink if the drying time needs to be slowed, ex. if your machine has a slow cycling time or if a shuttle is being used on multi-color machines. SV5 has good solubility and an evaporation rate of 230 - 300.
Retarder Evaporation Rates:
- SV1 =450 - 500
- SV5 =230 - 300
