Fujifilm Uvijet Fusion Primers Product Datasheet

Uvijet Fusion primers can also be used to aid specific
finishing requirements such as cutting/guillotining and
routing.  In these instances it may not be necessary to
prime the whole substrate surface, but wipe only those
areas where finishing will occur.

The range comprises 3 products:
Uvijet Fusion Adhesion Promoter ZE680
Uvijet Fusion Adhesion Master ZE720
Uvijet Fusion Ultra ZE700

ZE680 is an optically clear, fast drying, solvent-based
primer developed to facilitate adhesion between Uvijet
UV curable digital inks and plastic materials such as Gloss
Rigid PVC, Acrylic and PETG.

Uvijet Fusion Adhesion Promoter ZE680 creates a
chemical bond between Uvijet digital inks and the
substrate surface. Developed from Fujifilm’s detailed
understanding of decorating rigid materials ZE680 Fusion
Adhesion Promoter can also be used to clean surface
contamination from substrates prior to printing.  The use
of ZE680 will modify the surface energy of the substrate
and as a result the print quality achievable may be
enhanced further.

Uvijet Fusion Adhesion Promoter ZE680 is available in 1 ltr
containers.

To apply ZE680
• Remove any protective film from the substrate.

• Remove any excess dirt with a dry cloth.

• Soak a lint-free cloth such as Clean Room Wipes WSD02

available from Sericol with ZE680 and wipe the entire
substrate surface.
Ensure that advice detailed within the product
safety data sheet on protective equipment and
ventilation is followed.

• Once the whole surface of the substrate has been

primed allow a minimum of 5 minutes prior to printing.

• Print onto the primed surface.

• Depending on the substrate and ink film deposit the

chemical bond may take upwards of 24 hours to complete.

• It is recommended that primed substrates are

For use as a cleaner
ZE680 has also been formulated to act as a cleaner for
rigid materials prior to printing.  By wiping the substrate
surface and leaving to dry prior to printing ZE680 will
remove dirt and particulate matter, which can impair 
ink adhesion.

ZE680 can also be used to reduce Uvijet ink drop
deflection and the build up of airborne particles being
attracted to the surface during printing.

ZE720 is an optically clear, slower drying, solvent-based
primer specifically developed to improve adhesion of
Uvijet onto the more difficult rigid materials such as
Fluted Polypropylenes and Polyethylene. Because of the
inert nature of polypropylene materials such as ‘Correx’
and ‘Priplac’ the drying time for ZE720 is longer than that
of ZE680, with drying times in a well-ventilated area of
10–20 minutes required in order to achieve full adhesion.
Uvijet Fusion Adhesion Master ZE720 is available in 1 ltr
containers.

To apply ZE720
• Remove any protective film from the substrate.

• Remove any excess dirt with a dry cloth.

• Soak a lint-free cloth such as Clean Room Wipes WSD02

available from Fujifilm with ZE720 and wipe the entire
substrate surface.

• Allow to dry – normally 10-20 minutes depending on

the substrate size and drying conditions.

• Print  onto  surface.

The viscosity of ZE720 makes it suitable for application by
roller or pad. See the additional application advice below.

• The chemical nature of ZE720 is such that the primer

can be applied up to 2 days prior to printing without
any adverse effects on ink adhesion or outdoor
weathering.

• Depending on the substrate and ink film deposit the

chemical bond might take up to 24 hours to complete.

• Materials primed with ZE720 in this manner prior to

printing will have greater water resistance for
prolonged outdoor use.

• ZE720 has a lower odour than ZE680 and can be used

on other plastic materials where the odour of ZE680 is
considered problematic.
