| Advantage | Shortcoming |
|---|---|
| Strong environmental protection | Relatively weak color performance |
| - Extremely low VOC content, reducing negative impact on the environment | - Not as good as oil-based ink in terms of color depth and saturation, especially when applied to some special materials |
| - Meet modern environmental protection printing requirements | - May affect the visual effect of printed materials |
| Quick drying | Poor weather resistance |
| - Fast drying speed, suitable for fast production line needs | - Poor weather resistance, not suitable for long-term outdoor use |
| - Improve production efficiency, flexographic printing can reach 400 meters per minute | - Durability in outdoor environment may be more than 1 year |
| Easy to clean | Limited adhesion |
| - Usually can be cleaned with water and soap, easy to maintain the equipment | - Does not adhere as well as oil-based inks to non-absorbent surfaces (such as glossy plastics) |
| - Reduce cleaning costs | - May affect the adhesion and stability of printed products |
| High security | Relatively low gloss |
| - Little harm to human health | - The glossiness of printed products may be poorer than that of oil-based inks |
| -Non-flammable and non-explosive, not a hazardous chemical, no fire hazard | - However, this disadvantage has been gradually reduced through technological improvements (such as the high concentration and low viscosity formula of Zhongzhixing water-based ink) |
| Stable ink | Drying speed is affected by the environment |
| - No corrosion to the plate, easy to operate | - The temperature and humidity of the printing workshop have a significant impact on the drying speed |
| Relatively low price | Requires special equipment or technology |
| - Compared with some special inks such as UV inks, water-based inks are more economical | - Auxiliary equipment such as hot air drying device may be needed to increase the drying speed |
