It provides printers with a controlled way to adjust thicker inks for easier handling and improved performance on press.\n      \u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n    \u003cdiv class=\"spsi-block\"\u003e\n      \u003cp\u003e\n        \u003cstrong\u003eK2915 Curable Reducer\u003c\/strong\u003e is especially useful when a plastisol ink needs to be thinned to achieve the desired printing consistency. Unlike simply adding a non-curable thinning agent, Curable Reducer is designed for use as part of the plastisol ink system, helping maintain proper cure characteristics when used at recommended levels.\n      \u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n    \u003cdiv class=\"spsi-block\"\u003e\n      \u003cp\u003e\n        Avient states that adding approximately \u003cstrong\u003e5% K2915 by weight can reduce the viscosity of most plastisol inks by approximately 25%\u003c\/strong\u003e. This allows printers to make meaningful viscosity adjustments with a relatively small amount of reducer.\n      \u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n    \u003cdiv class=\"spsi-block\"\u003e\n      \u003cp\u003e\n        When added at recommended amounts, K2915 Curable Reducer should not alter the cure temperature of the plastisol ink. This makes it a useful production additive when improved ink flow is required without unnecessarily changing established curing parameters.\n      \u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n    \u003cdiv class=\"spsi-block\"\u003e\n      \u003cp\u003e\n        For best results, reducer should be added gradually and thoroughly mixed into the ink until the desired printing viscosity is achieved. Excessive reducer can negatively affect ink performance.
