2888 is a silicone wetting agent with excellent performance. Its surface tension is 21.5mN/m, which can improve the properties of substrates which are difficult to coat with water-based coatingsm, increase wettability, improve spreadability and prevent shrinkage. It can improve the wettability of soluble flexographic printing inks and gravure printing inks on highly smooth packaging materials such as polyethylene, polypropylene and polyethylene paraxylate. This product can reduce the amount of organic solvent used to improve wettability and improve printing physical properties.
