Advantages

Key Benefits

Why Milcglan is the preferred choice for inks and pigments formulations

01

High brightness and opacity — enhances whiteness and hiding strength

02

Excellent dispersibility — no flocculation or flooding across solvent and water-based media

03

Gloss enhancement and film uniformity — maintains gloss at higher extender loading

Milcglan benefits Performance engineered for Inks and Pigments
04

Low abrasion and press-friendly — protects plates, anilox rolls, and doctor blades

05

Ink clarity and print definition — reduces mottling and improves color density

06

Enables 5–9% TiO₂ reduction with same opacity and improved gloss stability

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Milcglan in inks and pigments applications

MILCGLAN uses precision micronization and proprietary surface functionalization to create controlled particle morphology that enhances light scattering efficiency and ink gloss far beyond standard CaCO₃.

MILCGLAN creates micro-structured spacing that increases TiO₂ scattering efficiency, enabling 5–9% TiO₂ reduction while maintaining equivalent opacity and improving gloss stability.

Yes, MILCGLAN is engineered for compatibility with acrylic, PU, NC, and maleic resin systems in both water-based and solvent-based flexo and gravure ink formulations.

MILCGLAN is designed as a rheology-neutral extender — it provides body and structure without increasing viscosity, supporting smooth gravure transfer and better leveling in flexo.

Typical use levels are 2–5%, optimized based on TiO₂ replacement targets, desired opacity, and gloss performance requirements for the specific ink system.
