Cabot ELFTEX 415 Carbon Black - Low-Structure High-Gloss Pigment Black for Offset Printing Inks

Full Name: ELFTEX 415 Low-Structure High-Gloss Special Pigment Carbon Black for Printing Ink Low oil absorption carbon black customized for high-gloss offset printing ink, compatible with high pigment loading ink formula balancing gloss and fluidity. Core Technical Parameters Nitrogen Surface Area: 70 ㎡ /g DBP Absorption: 52 cc/100g Primary Particle Size: 34 nm ASTM Tinting Strength: 95 % Volatile Content: 1.4 ~ 2.3 % 325 Mesh Residue: ＜ 130 ppm Physical Form: Fluffy Powder / Pellets Optional Standard Pack: 12.5kg/bag CAS No.: 1333-86-4 Core Advantages 1.  Ultra-low DBP absorption reduces resin consumption, supporting high solid & high carbon black loading ink formulations. 2.  Low-structure feature provides mirror-level high gloss, smooth printing surface free of orange peel defects. 3.  Mild viscosity increase rate ensures smooth roller transfer without plate clogging during long-hour printing. 4.  Controllable dust volume, compatible with automatic continuous ink feeding production lines. 5.  Full compatibility with heat-set & cold-set offset ink resins. Main Application Fields Core Applications: High-Gloss Offset Printing Ink, Liquid Gravure Packaging Ink Compatible Applications: Low-Viscosity Decorative Solvent Coating, General Plastic Grey Tinting Forbidden Scenarios: Food-contact products, High Weather Resistance Topcoat, Ultra-High Blackness Premium Ink Handling Precautions 1.  Mix with special ink dispersing resin to shorten grinding duration further. 2.  Store away from light & moisture to prevent viscosity thickening during ink storage. 3.  Standard ink dosage: 1.6% ~ 4.5%. 4.  Pellet version requires no pre-mixing; powder version needs high-speed pre-dispersion.
