Non-woven water-based inks: Innovation in printing technology and integration of environmental trend
Date: Nov 30 2023 From: Star Color
With the increasing awareness of environmental protection, the printing industry is actively seeking more environmentally friendly printing methods.As a new type of printing technology, non-woven water-based ink has the advantages of environmental protection, energy saving and no pollution, and is gradually becoming a new trend in the printing industry.This paper will deeply discuss the characteristics of non-woven water-based ink, application fields and future development trends, in order to provide new ideas and methods for the printing industry.
Characteristics of
non-woven water-based ink1.Environmental protection property
The biggest feature of non-woven water-based ink is environmental protection.Because it uses water as a solvent and does not contain organic solvents and harmful substances, it will not produce harmful gases and waste water during use, reducing environmental pollution.At the same time, the VOC emissions of water-based ink are very low, and the impact on the environment and human health is small.
2.Energy saving
The drying speed of non-woven water-based ink is slow, but the drying speed can be rapidly improved by hot air drying, ultraviolet drying and other ways to shorten the printing cycle.In addition, due to the low viscosity of water-based ink, it can reduce the energy consumption in the printing process and improve production efficiency.
3.Applicability
Non-woven water-based inks are suitable for various types of printing presses, such as lithography, gravure printing, flexographic printing，etc.At the same time, it is also suitable for the printing of various non-woven materials, such as spunbonded non-woven fabrics, spunlaced non-woven fabrics, hot air non-woven fabrics，etc.This wide applicability enables non-woven water-based inks to play their advantages in various printing fields.
4.Durability
Non-woven water-based ink has good durability and can be stored for a long time at room temperature.In addition, due to its low viscosity, fine lines and complex patterns can be printed in the printing process, improving the beauty and added value of the product.
Applications of non-woven water-based inks
1.Package printing
As people's attention to environmental protection and health continues to increase, the packaging and printing industry is gradually turning to the use of more environmentally friendly materials and technologies.As a new type of environmentally friendly printing technology, non-woven water-based ink is more and more widely used in the field of packaging printing.For example, in the fields of food packaging, hygiene packaging, environmental protection bags ,etc, the use of non-woven water-based ink is becoming more and more popular.
2.Home decoration printing
The home decoration printing market has higher and higher requirements for environmental protection and aesthetics.As an environmentally friendly and beautiful printing technology, the application of non-woven water-based ink in the field of home decoration printing has gradually increased.For example, in the fields of wallpaper, home textiles, furniture film, the use of non-woven water-based inks is becoming more and more common.
3.Advertising materials printing
Advertising materials printing requires a large number of prints, and non-woven water-based ink as an environmentally friendly, fast printing technology, in the field of advertising materials printing applications are gradually increasing.For example, in the fields of posters, brochures, billboards, etc., the use of non-woven water-based inks is becoming more and more popular.
The development trend of non-woven water-based ink
1.Technological innovation is constantly promoted
With the continuous progress and innovation of science and technology, the technology of non-woven water-based ink is also constantly improving and perfecting.In the future, there will be more technical innovation and application areas of non-woven water-based inks to meet the needs of different customers and market trends.For example, technological innovation can improve the drying speed, color brightness and durability of non-woven water-based ink performance indicators.
2.Market demand continues to grow
As people's attention to environmental protection and health continues to increase and the market demand for environmentally friendly products continues to increase, the market demand for non-woven water-based inks will continue to grow.Especially in packaging printing, home decoration printing, advertising materials printing and other fields, due to the high requirements for environmental protection and health and broad market prospects and other factors, the application and development of non-woven water-based ink will usher in more opportunities and challenges.
