Date: Dec 07 2023 From: Star Color
With the increasing awareness of environmental protection, the printing industry is actively seeking more environmentally friendly and more economical alternatives.
Paper Water-Based Ink, an environmentally friendly printing ink with water as a solvent, is gradually becoming a popular choice in the printing industry.This article will analyze the evolutionary process and advantages of Paper Water-Based Ink in detail, and reveal the unique charm of this green printing solution for readers.
Evolution of Paper Water-Based Ink
1.Early water -based ink
As early as the 1980s, with the continuous development of water printing technology, water -based ink began to gradually be applied to the printing industry.Early water -based ink is mainly based on vegetable oil and alcohol, which has low pollution, but the drying speed is slow, and the printing effect is also limited.
2.Acrylic water-type water-based ink
Entering the 1990s, acrylic water -based water ink gradually became the mainstream.This type of ink is based on acrylate, which has the advantages of fast dryness, water resistance, and light resistance. It provides a better printing solution for the printing industry.However, the price of acrylic water -type ink is relatively high, which limits its application in certain fields.
3.Environmental water -based ink
With the improvement of people's awareness of environmental protection, the printing industry has begun to pursue more environmentally friendly water -based ink.Environmental protection and water -based ink uses resin with better biodegradable resin as the main raw material, and has lower VOC (volatile organic compounds) discharge and wider applicability.In addition, the production process of environmentally friendly water -based ink has also been further optimized, improving production efficiency and product quality.
Paper Water-Based Ink advantage
1.Superior environmental performance
Paper Water-Based Ink uses water as a solvent and does not contain organic solvents, so it has the advantages of zero VOC emissions.This kind of ink does not cause harmful gases during use, and has a small impact on the environment and human health.In addition, Paper Water-based Ink has a good biodegradability and meets the standards of green printing.
2.Printing performance stable
The rheology of Paper Water-Based Ink is stable, and it is not easy to block the nozzle.At the same time, the color reduction of this ink is high, and it can present the true color effect.Due to its fast drying, Water resistance and other characteristics, Paper water-based Ink can maintain a stable printing effect during the printing process and improve the printing quality.
3.High economy
Although the production cost of Paper Water-Based Ink is slightly higher than that of some traditional inks, its use cost is lower and its service life is long.In addition, due to the environmental protection characteristics of Paper Water-Based Ink, the government has certain policy support for related industries, which can reduce the production cost of enterprises.Therefore, in the long run, the use of Paper Water-Based Ink has a high economy.
4.Wide range of applications
Paper Water-Based Ink is suitable for all kinds of paper and substrate surfaces, such as newsprint, offset paper, coated paper, whiteboard paper, etc.At the same time, this ink can also be used for plastic, metal and other non-absorbent materials surface printing.Therefore, Paper Water-Based Ink has a wide range of application prospects in the printing of packaging, labeling, advertising and other fields.
5.energy conservation and emission reduction
Using Paper Water-Based Ink can reduce the amount of traditional ink used, thereby reducing energy consumption and carbon emissions.In addition, due to the low cost of wastewater treatment of Paper Water-Based Ink, the sewage treatment pressure of enterprises can be reduced and the goal of energy conservation and emission reduction can be achieved.
In summary, Paper Water-Based Ink, as an environmentally friendly printing ink, has advantages such as superior environmental performance, stable printing performance, high economy, wide application range, energy saving and emission reduction.In the context of today's society's emphasis on environmental protection and sustainable development, Paper Water-Based Ink will become one of the important development directions of the printing industry.With the continuous progress of technology and the growing market demand, we have reason to believe that this green printing solution will be more widely used and developed in the future.
