With the increasing global awareness of environmental protection, water-based ink is more and more widely used in the printing industry.Among them, water-based BOPP plastic ink is of particular concern.BOPP plastic is a kind of film material with high transparency, high strength and excellent barrier properties, which is widely used in packaging, labeling and composite materials.As an environmentally friendly and high-performance printing solution, water-based BOPP plastic ink has outstanding environmental protection and safety performance while meeting the needs of modern printing.
Characteristics of
water-based BOPP plastic ink1.Environmental protection property:The main components of the water-based BOPP plastic ink are water and natural resins, which do not contain organic solvents and harmful heavy metals, thus reducing the emission of VOCs (volatile organic compounds) and being environmentally friendly.The waste generated during the manufacturing and use of this ink is less, which is conducive to resource conservation and environmental protection.
2.Printing performance:Water-based BOPP plastic inks have excellent adhesion and printing adaptability to meet the requirements of different printing processes.The drying speed is fast and the production efficiency is improved.In addition, this ink also has good wear resistance and scratch resistance, which can ensure the long-term preservation of printed matter.
3.Mechanical property:The water-based BOPP plastic ink has good flexibility and stiffness, and can adapt to the printing needs of different thicknesses and types of BOPP plastic films.In addition, this ink also has good weather resistance and chemical resistance, and can maintain stable performance under different environmental conditions.
4.Safety:Because water-based BOPP plastic ink is non-toxic, tasteless, harmless to the human body, in line with food safety standards, it is widely used in food packaging and pharmaceutical packaging and other fields.
5.Economical efficiency:Although the initial investment of water-based BOPP plastic ink may be higher, it has a good economy in the long run because of its excellent cost performance and long service life.In addition, since the use of this ink does not require special equipment and ventilation facilities, it also reduces operating costs.
Application of water-based BOPP plastic ink
With the continuous improvement of people's requirements for environmental protection and safety, water-based BOPP plastic inks are more and more widely used in packaging, labeling and composite materials.Below we will look at some of the main application areas in detail.
1.Packaging field:In the field of food packaging, water-based BOPP plastic ink is widely used in food packaging and pharmaceutical packaging due to its non-toxic, tasteless, environmental protection and safety characteristics and in line with food safety standards.In the field of cosmetic packaging, this ink is also widely used because it can provide excellent printing results and long-term preservation performance.
2.Label field:The application of water-based BOPP plastic ink in the field of labels mainly includes self-adhesive labels and heat-sensitive labels.Because of its good adhesion and printing adaptability, it can ensure the clarity and durability of the label, while drying speed, improve production efficiency, so it has been favored by the majority of label printing enterprises.
3.Composite material field:In the field of composite materials, water-based BOPP plastic inks are also widely used.For example, in the preparation of composite materials for food packaging, because this ink has good wear resistance and scratch resistance and good printing performance, it can meet the printing requirements of composite materials and ensure the quality of printed matter.
Market trend
With the continuous improvement of environmental awareness and the continuous progress of technology, the market demand for water-based BOPP plastic inks will continue to grow.In the next few years, the following trends will dominate the development of the water-based BOPP plastic ink market:
1.Technological innovation:With the continuous progress of science and technology and the constant change of market demand, the production technology of water-based BOPP plastic ink will continue to improve and innovate.The new formulation and production process will further improve the performance and quality of the ink to meet the changing needs of the market.For example, the development of water-based BOPP plastic inks with higher gloss, wider color gamut coverage and better weather resistance will become a future research and development focus.
2.Diversified application:With the continuous expansion of the market and the deepening of the application field, the application field of water-based BOPP plastic ink will be further expanded.In addition to the traditional packaging, labeling and composite material fields, emerging areas such as intelligent packaging, digital printing, etc. will also become an important application field of water-based plastic ink, which provides a broader development space for water-based plastic ink, and will promote the continuous innovation and progress of water-based plastic ink technology to promote the sustainable development of the entire industry.
