They cure extremely quickly within seconds when exposed to uv light.
Best emulsion for screen printing.
Diazo emulsions are the cheapest screen printing emulsion option.
However long print runs call for a screen printing emulsion formulated according to the ink manufacturers recommendation.
Diazo emulsion works great with units that do not have timers and it can be washed out under uv light successfully most of the time without any issue allowing you to wash out this emulsion outside.
Ecotex wr blue water resistant emulsion.
This is a combination of the qualities of pure photopolymer and diazo and has a quick exposure time.
After exposure it changes color.
110 to 160 mesh count screens are the most versatile and the most commonly used in screen printing.
It can be used by inexperienced screen printers but the quick exposure time makes the use of this emulsion challenging.
Most screen printing emulsion contain two chemical polymers.
The more delicate bonds created by sbq based emulsions make the emulsions a good choice for detailed work.
Jacquard photo emulsion and diazo.
Polyvinyl acetate a water resistant polymer often referred to as pvac.
One for plastisol inks the other exclusively for water based inks.
Based on the type of photosensitizers photopolymer emulsions can be classified as diazo sensitized photo emulsion diazo emulsions can be considered a new addition to the printing inks or emulsion arena.
Sbq based emulsions come in one pot with no mixing required.

At the higher end of the mesh count spectrum you can print a more detailed image while maintaining a fair ink deposit.
It provides a heavy coating and holds the image.
Basically there are three types of emulsions that can be used in screen printing.
Diazo mixed emulsions are also cheaper and less of a headache for those just getting into screen printing.
Screens on the lower end of the mesh count spectrum put down heavier ink deposits and are ideal for printing underbases or printing bold colors on dark fabrics.

Dual core emulsion comes in two varieties.
