The standard price of bulk ABS European Standard Ink does not include matching thinners and hardeners. These supporting materials must be purchased separately based on your specific application requirements, printing machinery, and environmental conditions to achieve optimal viscosity and adhesion performance.
ABS European Standard Ink (Product Code: SCL-00YM) is imported and manufactured with a fine particle grind of 8 micrometers, ensuring smooth ink flow through high-mesh screens without clogging. With a high coloring power of 100% and a baseline viscosity of 100 seconds, the formulation yields excellent opacity and crisp edge definition. To adapt the ink for distinct machinery speeds and atmospheric conditions, industrial users must mix the ink with dedicated thinners to alter the flowing degree (measured at ≥ 20 mm) and add hardeners to bolster mechanical resistance.
In high-demand manufacturing environments, such as the hospitality supply sector in Saudi Arabia, precise ink preparation is critical. A distributor in this region utilized printing setups to customize brand logos on tableware, room decorations, and synthetic materials. By pairing the base ABS ink with correct ratios of thinners and hardeners, they maintained sharp logo replication and durable wear resistance, passing stringent wash and chemical exposure tests. The raw material quality inspection and physical performance testing processes ensure that each batch meets safety criteria before shipment.
The following table outlines the technical specifications of the ABS ink series and procurement details to plan your production inventory correctly.

Q1: Why are thinners and hardeners sold separately from the bulk ABS ink?
A1: Different printing processes, ambient temperatures, and drying equipment require unique evaporation speeds and chemical cross-linking strengths. Supplying them separately prevents premature curing and allows custom mixing ratios.
Q2: What is the shelf life and storage requirement for this ink?
A2: The ink has a shelf life of 12 months when stored in its original, sealed container under cool, dry conditions. Once mixed with hardeners, the pot life decreases significantly and must be used immediately.
Q3: How is the product packaged for long-distance international shipping?
A3: To prevent leakage and damage during transit, the containers are securely sealed and packed inside reinforced wooden boxes. Real-time tracking is provided from port clearance through to final delivery.
