Why SEMISIL H100 Fits Printing Inks (Offset & Screen)
Transparency critical for ink intensity — fumed silica avoids the opacity penalty of precipitated grades.
Competitive context: ACEMATT TS 100 commonly specified in offset OPV. SEMISIL H100 matches the relevant performance window with the same particle size range as the legacy grades, enabling clean reformulation paths.

FAQ — Printing Inks (Offset & Screen)
+What treat rate of SEMISIL H100 is recommended for printing inks (offset & screen)?
Typical dosage is 1.0 – 4.0 wt%. Fine-tune ±0.5 wt% based on your DFT and target gloss (Customizable matting in OPV, varnish, screen ink).
+How does SEMISIL H100 compare to ACEMATT TS 100 commonly specified in offset OPV for this application?
ACEMATT TS 100 commonly specified in offset OPV. SEMISIL H100 matches their performance window at 30 – 45% lower landed cost from Chinese manufacture, with the same particle size range so existing formulations port cleanly.
