AMP150 Polysaccharide Resins for Inks

AMP150 is used as a zero VOC vehicle in the preparation of water-based pigment pastes and inks. It is particularly suitable for inkjet formulations. AMP150 is based on AMP’s nano-particle technology. It meets FDA regulations for direct food contact.

 

AMP150 has been formulated to be a lower viscosity version of AMP100. It is a highly effective, stable, aqueous, colloidal suspension of polysaccharides derived from corn, wheat and potatoe.  It is a clear golden, yellow to brown liquid that is readily miscible with acrylic dispersions and that can also be used as a grinding vehicle.
