Chromaline Hydro X Blue Photo Polymer Emulsion – High-Performance Screen Printing Emulsion for Water-Based, Discharge & Plastisol Inks

Chromaline Hydro X Blue is a premium photopolymer screen printing emulsion engineered for printers who need maximum durability, fast exposure, and consistent results across multiple ink systems. Designed to perform with water-based, discharge, and plastisol inks, Hydro X Blue is known for its exceptional ink resistance, strong stencil build, and outstanding detail reproduction.

With an advanced high-solids formula (46%), Hydro X creates a thick, durable stencil using fewer coats—making it ideal for shops focused on speed and efficiency. A 1×1 coating method (one coat per side) delivers stencil thickness comparable to multiple coats of traditional diazo emulsions, helping reduce coating time while maintaining image quality.

Hydro X exposes quickly, dries fast, and does not require a stencil hardener, even when printing aggressive water-based or discharge inks. Its brilliant blue color improves stencil visibility during coating, exposure, and washout, while still reclaiming cleanly and efficiently.

Whether you’re producing high-detail halftones, running long production cycles, or switching between ink systems, Chromaline Hydro X Blue delivers dependable performance in demanding screen rooms.
