Soytex Extender is used in the manufacture of soy oil-based non-laser compatible business forms inks.  Soytex Extender, as the name implies, is soy oil-based, containing approximately 25% soy oil. Soytex extender has 100 percent solids and is virtually VOC-free. It is used as an excellent letdown vehicle for making all kinds of no heat web inks such as forms inks when combined with just about any type of flush. 

Soytex Extender has a short, thick gel consistency. To obtain a more free-flowing soy forms extender, please see Soytex Extender FFG in this catalog.

Soytex Extender is not recommended for use in making laser-compatible forms inks. Please use Soytex Extender LZR for laser inks.
