And unlike silicone and other denesting agents, Cesa Denesting additives don’t require extra steps in the manufacturing process, maintain the transparency of the sheet, and allow for metallization and printing of the packaging.

Two application areas were targeted initially: a printed circuit board controller unit and shielding plates for various electronic components linked to each of the numerous detector elements.

Lasting mark will not peel or scratch off as with traditional printing solutions

Laser marking offers advantages over other marking and printing technologies.

The ISS show is one of the most important events within the screen printing industry, and we are especially eager to present our combined portfolio of specialty inks during this year’s show,” said Scott Craig, general manager, Specialty Inks at PolyOne.
