Frequently Asked Questions

What is ethyl acetate used for in printing?

Ethyl acetate is a fast-evaporating ester solvent used extensively in flexo and gravure ink formulation and dilution for flexible packaging printing. It offers excellent solvency for resins and pigments and fast drying for high-speed printing.

Why is ethyl acetate important in flexible packaging printing?

Ethyl acetate is a primary solvent in solvent-based flexo and gravure inks for flexible packaging. Its strong solvency and fast evaporation make it ideal for dissolving ink resins and enabling fast drying on non-porous film substrates.

Is ethyl acetate low odour?

Ethyl acetate has a relatively low, characteristic odour compared to many alternative solvents, which is one reason it is widely used in flexible packaging ink systems.
