Soytab Extender LO VIS (Extra Long Flow) is a close relative of our 30+ year-old standard, Soytab Extender. Soytab Extender LO VIS's main feature is that it is very soft in body and has a very low viscosity. Soytab Extender LO VIS can be used as either a letdown varnish or as a transparent white extender. Soytab Extender LO VIS has nearly zero VOC's and is soy oil-based. One can tip over a drum, and Soytab Extender LO VIS pours out immediately.

​

Use Soytab Extender LO VIS for developing newsinks for modern high speed presses that use "injector" type ink fountains. Soytab Extender LO VIS is particularly well-suited for use in making inks for keyless inking systems. Newsinks made with Soytab Extender LO VIS exhibit very good long-term control of viscosity, avoiding viscosity "creep" during extender periods of storage. Soytab Extender LO VIS is particularly good for making viscosity-stable Process Red (magenta) inks.

​

Make sure to pre-mix Soytab Extender LO VIS thoroughly before using it, as some settling of pigment solids in Soytab Extender LO VIS may occur during long-term storage.  For best performance, please avoid using any form of castor oil in process reds.

​

Soytab Extender LO VIS has 100 percent solids and is virtually VOC-free. It is used as an excellent letdown vehicle for making all kinds of no heat web news inks when combined with just about any type of flush. 

​

For best performance, please avoid using any form of castor oil for water pickup control in process reds.
