Liquid Photopolymer Ancillary Items
Anderson & Vreeland has a complete line of ancillary items to compliment the complete line of AVantage® Liquid Photopolymer – AVCorrugated, AVBag, AVStamp, AVMaster.
AVDEFOAM Defoamer
AVantage Defoamer is a silicone emulsion defoamer that minimizes foam in developer baths that use AVantage Washout Solution or similar detergent. Reducing foam in the developer bath improves the spray pressure required to effectively wash out photopolymer resin from AVantage liquid photopolymer printing plates after the exposure process.
- Packaged in 5-gallon plastic containers. Drums are also available.
AVSALT Post Exposure Salt
AVantage Post Exposure Salt facilitates the detacking of AVantage liquid photopolymer printing plates. AVSALT is mixed with warm water in the post exposure solution tray. The photopolymer plate is then submerged in the post exposure solution and exposed to ultraviolet light to complete the detacking process.
- Packaged in 5 lb. plastic containers.
AVDEV Liquid Developer
AVantage Liquid Developer serves as a dispersant to ensure a consistent formulation of the developer bath (comprised of AVWashout solution and AVDefoamer) required to process liquid photopolymer printing plates.
- Packaged in 5 gallon plastic containers. Drums are also available.
AVWASHOUT Solution
AVantage Washout Solution is a specially formulated liquid detergent that breaks down and emulsifies AVantage liquid photopolymer resin during the washout cycle. It has superior chemistries that ensure a clean and consistent washout each and every time.
- Packaged in 5 gallon plastic containers. Drums are also available.
AVCOV Matte & Clear Cover Film
AVantage matte & clear cover film is easy to handle and easy to work with during photopolymer platemaking. The matte finish of this film creates a unique, microscopic finish to the printing plate that reduces tack and improves ink transfer.
AVSUB 4 & 7 MIL Subtrates
AVantage 4 & 7 mil plate substrates are a polyester base backing sheet and offers excellent adhesion to AVantage liquid photopolymers for conventional and in-position plates for flexographic printing.
