Chromaline ChromaBlue Emulsion is a premium ready-to-use pure photopolymer screen printing emulsion developed for textile printers who want fast screen production and exceptional stencil performance. Formulated specifically for plastisol inks and silicone inks, ChromaBlue eliminates the need for diazo mixing while providing extremely fast exposure and drying times that help improve productivity in busy screen rooms. Its blue color offers excellent stencil visibility for inspection and registration while producing crisp, high-quality images.
With 50% solids and no inert fillers, ChromaBlue creates durable stencils with outstanding mesh bridging, sharp image definition, and excellent reproduction of fine details and halftones. The high solids formulation produces more screens per container while reducing emulsion usage, helping improve production efficiency. ChromaBlue is also compatible with LED exposure systems and is recommended for CTS (Computer-to-Screen) imaging, making it an excellent choice for modern screen printing operations. Outstanding reclaimability allows screens to be cleaned quickly after production and prepared for their next print run.
For optimal results, thoroughly degrease screens before coating and apply the emulsion evenly using a quality Scoop Coater. Allow coated screens to dry completely in a clean, dark drying environment before exposure. Determine the proper exposure using a 10-Step Exposure Guide or Exposure Calculator based on your mesh count, coating thickness, and exposure unit. Once printing is complete, reclaim screens with a quality Emulsion Remover to efficiently remove the stencil and extend screen life. Store the emulsion at room temperature, protect it from freezing, and avoid temperatures above 80°F (27°C).
Whether you're printing athletic apparel, retail garments, promotional products, or specialty textile graphics using plastisol or silicone inks, Chromaline ChromaBlue Emulsion delivers the speed, durability, and reliable stencil performance professional screen printers rely on for consistent production.
