UMC New Product Release: 
LumiNovaŽ FF Particle Size
UNITED MINERAL & CHEMICAL is announcing the release of new extra fine FF particle size to its LumiNovaŽ line of phosphorescent pigments. The new FF type of LumiNovaŽ has an average particle size of 2.5 microns. This product development opens a new vista of opportunities for the printing ink manufacturer. Until now, it was impossible to manufacture phosphorescent flexo, gravure, litho or pad printing ink because the particles were too large and the loadings needed were very high.
