Avient™ Specialty Inks INFINITE FX BRITTLE are specifically formulated inks that have the ability to easily fracture and crack when pressure is applied to the surface. Distorting the surface through bending or stretching causes the ink to crack and fracture. Brittle inks have a worn, tough finish that can resemble cracked paint or distressed appearance.

Clean Up

  • Ink degradent or press wash
  • Use consistent, high-tensioned screen mesh and sharp edged squeegees for best print results. Recommended mesh counts can vary depending on particle size
  • Print in last position or flash after each print if using multiple screens
  • Ink deposit is critical to achieve cracking results, use a print technique to assure a good ink deposit and test for suitability
  • Print directly to fabric for best cracking results
  • Tintable with plastisol colorants. See Pigment Loading section for suggested starting tinting percentages
  • Cure between 340-350°F (170-175°C) and increase dwell time to assure cure and to achieve desired cracking effect
  • After the print is cooled, "crack by hand" by stretching the printed area for a custom distressed look
  • Stir plastisols before printing.
  • Do not dry clean, bleach or iron printed area.
  • Perform fusion tests before production. Failure to cure ink properly can result in poor wash fastness, inferior adhesion and unacceptable durability. Gel and cure temperatures for ink should be measured using a Thermoprobe device placed directly in the wet ink film and verified on the substrate(s) and equipment to be used for production.
  • It is the responsibility of the printer to determine that the correct ink has been selected for a specific substrate and the application processes meet the printer’s customer standards or specifications.
  • Curing is the responsibility of each printer to confirm that the print is fully cured. PolyOne’s cure recommendations are not a guarantee or warranty, but merely suggested starting points for curing evaluations as explained above.
  • When printing on garments that contain certain dyes, you must pre-test for the potential ghosting. Please refer to our website for more information on this issue.
  • Wilflex products have been carefully designed to perform within a given viscosity range, and any dramatic change in viscosity is probable to result in a change in printing characteristics
  • NON-CONTAMINATION OF EPIC INKS: Do not mix EPIC inks with inks, additives or extenders from other companies. All buckets, palette knives, stirring apparatus, squeegees, flood bars and screens must be cleaned properly and free of phthalates and pvc containing inks. Non-phthalate emulsions and pallet adhesives must be used. Failure to follow these precautions may cause phthalate contamination in violation of consumer protection laws and regulations.
  • Any application not referred in this product information bulletin should be pre-tested or consultation sought with Wilflex Technical Services Department prior to printing.
