Applications
Printing Inks
Walsroder Nitrocellulose is used in liquid printing inks, for instance for printing plastic films and aluminium foils intended mainly for food packaging. The printing methods involved are rotogravure and flexographic printing.

Printing inks containing NC result in graphics with high brilliance and high resolution. The rapid and complete solvent evaporation obtainable with nitrocellulose-based printing inks allows high printing speeds to be achieved on industrial 8 or 10 colour printing machines. A crucial factor for food packaging is the fact that nitrocellulose is toxicologically harmless. As nitrocellulose is produced from a natural macromolecule - cellulose - it does not contain any toxic monomers.
