Application
JONCRYL ® ECO 684 is an acrylic resin designed to be used as an extender in overprint varnishes to produce a high gloss finish.
JONCRYL ® ECO 684 is glycol ether free and ultra low VOC (less than 1%).
This means a 50% reduction in VOC compared with conventional water-based polymers.
JONCRYL ® ECO 684 has been designed as part of the JONCRYL® ECO series of products in response to today’s demanding packaging applications, such as the confectionery and tobacco markets which can not
tolerate product contamination as a result of retained solvent in the packaging.
JONCRYL ® ECO polymers allow the formulator to develop ultra low VOC, glycol ether free products to meet these industry demands. Their excellent compatibility and printability make them an ideal system for the next generation inks and overprint varnishes.
