What is the relationship between the composition and performance of the ink

Printing ink is composed of pigments, binders, fillers and other components to form a homogeneous slurry mixture. As a viscous fluid ink, due to the different properties of its varieties are also different, that is, thick and thin points, differences in viscosity, fast dry and slow dry and so on. Therefore, the correct understanding and understanding of the role of ink components in the ink, for the accurate adjustment of the ink characteristics, to meet the variety of printing conditions, improve the quality of the product printing is of great significance.

First, the color material in the ink can play what kind of connection

Pigments include pigments and dyes. The colored materials used in printing inks are usually pigments, but also some dyes. They are all very fine colored materials. Pigments are generally insoluble in water and do not dissolve in the binder. Most of the solution is suspended in the solution, and the dye is generally soluble in the binder. Pigments have a great influence on the performance of inks. The relative density, transparency, heat resistance, light resistance, and resistance to chemicals of inks are all related to pigments. The role of pigment in the ink is obvious, its color determines the hue of the ink; its amount determines the concentration of the ink; its use gives the ink a certain degree of consistency and other physical properties; its use affects to some extent Ink drying, oxidative polymerization drying inks are particularly prominent. In addition, the durability of the ink in all aspects is also determined by the pigment. Therefore, due to the variety of inks and their different uses, the use of pigments is also different. This requires the use of suitable inks according to the product application and process characteristics when printing. For example, high-speed multicolor printers should be used to package products with bright light. , fast solid, wear resistant inks to ensure print quality.

Second, the link material in the ink and what role

The binder is a kind of fluid with a certain viscosity and viscosity, and its function is various. As a carrier of the pigment, solid particles such as a powdery pigment are mixed and connected so that the phase-adhered pigment finally adheres to the print. The binder affects and determines the fixing speed, drying speed, and drying type of the ink, while giving the ink a certain degree of physical properties such as gloss, abrasion resistance, yellowing resistance, and impact resistance, and to a large extent The viscosity, viscosity, yield value, and fluidity of the ink are determined so that high quality inks are derived from high quality binders. If the linking material preparation or production process is unsatisfactory, the ink will not only lack vivid colors and good luster after printing, but it will also cause chain quality problems such as pasting, smudging, strike-through, pull-off and non-inking, and normal printing. Bring some obstacles. Therefore, the binder is a factor that affects the quality of the ink.

Third, what is the meaning of filling materials at this time?

The filler is a white solid substance that is uniformly and well dispersed in the binder and is a fine powder. When the fillers are slurried after mixing and grinding in the binder, some are transparent and others are opaque. Commonly used fillers are aluminum hydroxide, potassium sulfate, magnesium carbonate and calcium carbonate. Filler in the ink can play a role in adjusting the ink consistency, viscosity, viscosity, flowability and yield value, on the other hand, can play a role in adjusting the ink concentration, that is, when the ink concentration is large In the case of adding fillers, dilute effect can be achieved. Filler in the ink although there is a side to play a role, but its performance has many requirements consistent with the pigment, it also plays an important role in the drying effect of the oxidative polymerization drying ink.

Fourth, the amount of additives in the ink can not be ignored
For the printing operator, the printability of the ink is good, and the opening can be put into use once it is opened, which of course is the most convenient and convenient. However, due to differences in temperature and humidity in the printing environment, characteristics of printing materials, and different printing process conditions, such as the paper's moisture content, PH value, printer speed, and overprinting methods, the ink types are varied, but each The proportion of pigments, binders, and fillers used in the ink is almost constant, and the printability requirements for various conditions are not always satisfied. Therefore, from the perspective of improving printing efficiencies and quality, according to the changing printing conditions, proper addition of additives in selected inks is beneficial to ensuring normal printing.

V. What is the improvement of ink varnish in printing?

The commonly used varnish is usually No. 6 and No. 0. No. 6 varnish is used to increase the fluidity of the ink, improve the transferability of the ink, and reduce the concentration, viscosity, and drying of the ink. No. 0 oil has a larger viscosity. When the viscosity of the ink is insufficient to cause the ink to be printed or the ink is not good, the proper amount of No. 0 oil is loosened and added to the ink, which can increase the viscosity and adhesion of the ink.

Six, auxiliary materials are the basis for compositional comparison and performance applications

Ingredients in inks are generally classified into anti-tack agents, desiccants, additives, abdomens, anti-friction agents, anti-dry agents, and brightening oils. Recognizing the knowledge, but with more profound implications, how many people truly realized that the author shared the knowledge gained by consulting a large amount of information. The first step is to add anti-adhesion agent to the ink, which can prevent the back sheet from being dirty due to the lack of ink on the sheet stack, thus ensuring the product quality. The desiccant is divided into white dry oil and red dry oil. Species. Red dry oil is a desiccant based on cobalt naphthalate. It is a purple-red paste liquid and is suitable for adding in dark ink. Its dry form is mainly based on the surface of the ink layer. The dosage is 1%. -2% between. White dry oil is a mixture of cobalt, manganese, and lead metal salts, commonly known as mixed dry oil, with a full-drying role inside and outside the ink film, the dryness is not strong red dry oil, but the drying effect is better, and It is white translucent and has no effect on hue after adding light-colored ink. Additive is a white transparent paste substance. After adding proper amount of ink, it can eliminate paper lint and powder off phenomenon to prevent layout and blanket pile powder. The hair remover is a catastrophic disease; the lighter is a paste-like transparent material with good gloss and good printing performance. After adding the color ink, it can dilute the printing process effect of ink hue; anti-friction agent it is The wax is formulated with polyethylene wax and high boiling point kerosene, and 1% to 5% of rubbing resistance is added to the printing ink, which can increase the abrasion resistance of the printing ink layer and reduce the chance of ink stickiness and viscosity reduction. It is made of polyethylene wax and high-boiling point kerosene and other wax paste, add 1% -5% rubbing agent in the printing ink, can improve the wear resistance of the printing ink layer, and can reduce the ink viscosity reduction occurs Dirty opportunity; last Let's look at the bright oil. Except for the gloss, the relief printing ink adds the appropriate amount of bright oil, which can increase the ink's fluidity, which is beneficial to the uniformity of the ink, and can greatly improve the printing ink. The brightness of the film allows the ink layer to have a good effect of wear resistance, light resistance and fading prevention. Because the bright oil is fast, the ink drying speed is also increased after the ink is added. Therefore, this should be fully taken into consideration when adjusting the ink.

Concluding Remarks: From this we can recognize some problems, that is, some superficial things that we can't usually see. In today's terms, we can allow some things to exist. After all, things that exist have the truth of his existence. It is like an auxiliary relationship between the composition and properties of inks.
