  • Compositions useful to provide improved rheology and mist control to ink formulations and ink formulations containing such compositions
    Patent number: 7837776
    Abstract: The invention is ink formulations that show improved rheological and antimisting properties. The invention is particularly useful in lithographic inks including heatset, sheetfed and UV curable lithographic inks. The invention also includes novel additive that enable the preparation of inks with required viscosities that are needed to perform on high-speed printing presses with improved performance. The additive is based on reaction products of polyamines and carboxylic acids with two or more carboxylic moieties mixed or combined with tridecyl alcohol. In addition, the inventive additive is in the form of liquid and it is pourable and pumpable for ink manufacturing processes.

  • Ink formulations containing rubber additives
    Publication number: 20050209397
    Abstract: Printing inks have their performance improved by use of additives derived from rubber polyisoprenes “built-up” from rubber precursors or degraded using known techniques. A weight average molecular weight for the additives between 10,000-40,000 daltons has been found particularly effective and a loading between 1 and 10% optimum.

  • Electrical system having a clear conductive composition
    Patent number: 5973420
    Abstract: An electrical system, or a trigger circuit for use in connection with an electrical system, is disclosed. The electrical system includes a circuit element responsive to applied current, a power source for providing current to the circuit element, a substrate, and a substantially clear conductive composition arranged on or in associatin with the substrate for providing an electrical current path between the power source and the responsive circuit element.
