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.
