    The rheological properties of the ink include the viscosity, adhesion, yield value, thixotropy, fluidity and fluidity, and transferability of the ink. In the printing work, the rheology of the ink has an important impact on the quality of the printed product. The following are to talk about the impact of these rheological properties on the printing quality of ink. First, viscosity. Viscosity is a measure of the ability to hinder the relative movement of molecules caused by the mutual attraction of fluid molecules, which shows a property of preventing flow in the fluid and the degree of resistance to flow. The motion resistance caused by the mutual attraction between fluid molecules in the process of fluid flow is called internal friction. Viscosity is an important indicator of ink rheology, in the printing process of a certain viscosity is to ensure that the ink support transfer and uniform transfer of the main conditions, it is related to the printing process can proceed smoothly, and directly affect the uniformity of ink, clarity and gloss. Improper control of ink viscosity in printing will bring a variety of failures to printing, as listed below. 1.When the viscosity of the ink is too large, the drawing property is strong, during the ink transfer process, the wire head is too long when it splits between the ink rollers, and the broken end of the wire head is easy to form the ink flying into the air, forming the flying ink phenomenon in printing, and the flying ink phenomenon is more obvious in high-speed printing. 2.the viscosity of the ink is too large, it is easy to cause the depowder of the paper, drawing or delamination stripping phenomenon. This phenomenon is particularly obvious when the structure of the printing paper is loose and the surface strength is not high. 3, when the ink is transferred and transferred between the ink rollers, the viscosity is too large to make the ink transfer difficult. Excessive ink viscosity will lead to uneven distribution of ink, insufficient ink transferred to the plate or printed matter, uneven ink, and the phenomenon of bare print graphic base. Other effects of excessive viscosity on the printing process, such as the increase in the amount of ink, the printing ink layer is too thick, the drying speed is slow, and the back of the printing matter is easy to stain or adhere; In flat paper printing, it is also easy to produce the phenomenon that the paper is sucked into the ink roller. 5.the viscosity of the ink is too small, its fluidity increases, and it is easy to produce ink emulsification in the offset printing, resulting in dirty prints; The ink with too small viscosity is easy to produce spreading phenomenon on the paper, resulting in a large imprint area, a decline in clarity, and reduce the firmness of the combination of the imprinted dry conjunctiva and the substrate surface and the gloss of the imprint. 6.The viscosity of the ink is too small, often can not drive the ink particles in the larger p...

  • The main components and classification of water-based ink
    The main components and classification of water-based ink

    2024-05-09

    Water-based ink is referred to as ink, and flexible water-based ink is also known as liquid ink, which is mainly made of water-soluble resins, organic pigments, solvents and related additives by composite grinding processing. Water-based ink is especially suitable for tobacco, wine, food, beverages, medicines, children's toys and other packaging and printing products with strict sanitary conditions. Main components Water-based ink is composed of binder, pigment, additives and other substances of uniform slurry substance. The binder provides the necessary transfer properties of the ink, and the pigment gives the ink its color. Water-based ink binder is mainly divided into two types: water dilution type and water dispersion type. There are many types of resins that can be used in the former, such as maleic acid resin, shellac, maleic acid resin modified shellac, ulatan, water-soluble acrylic resin and water-based amino resin. Water-dispersed binder is obtained by polymerization of emulsified monomer in water, it is a two-phase system, in which the oil phase is dispersed in the water phase in a granular form, although it can not be dissolved by water, but it can be diluted by water, so it can also be considered as water-in-oil emulsion. Classification Modern inks are mainly divided into four categories according to the type of ink: Relief printing ink A type of ink used for printing books, newspapers, picture albums, bills, accounts, etc. The main feature of letterpress printing is that the inked part of the printed page is protruding from the non-inked part. Letterpress ink according to the type of printing machine and the use of printing products are divided into lead printing ink, copper printing ink, rotary letterpress ink, flexible letterpress ink. planographic printing ink A type of ink suitable for lithographic printing. Each part of the lithographic printing page is basically in a plane, the pattern is oil-wet, the non-pattern is water-wet, and the principle of oil-water repulsion is used for printing, so the lithographic ink must have water resistance. According to the process, it is divided into offset ink, web offset ink, flat offset ink, waterless offset ink, iron printing ink, lithographic ink. Gravure ink A type of inks suitable for gravure printing. When printing, ink is inked into the patterned part of the page, erase or scrape the ink of the non-patterned part, and then print. There are engraving intaglio ink and photogravure ink. Screen printing ink A type of ink that is printed by leaking through the plate's mesh onto the substrate surface. Screen printing ink is divided into stencil printing ink and screen printing ink. Water soluble resin Water-soluble resin or water-dispersed resin is the connection material of water-based ink, which has a great impact on the viscosity, adhesion, gloss, drying and printing adaptability of the ink. Water-based ink is made of water-based polymer emulsion, organic pigments, resins, surfactants and...

    Different processing methods will cause different fault manifestations, the following we mainly analyze the causes of paper thermit sealing delamination phenomenon under the gravure and solvent-free composite processing methods. The YBB paper aluminum-plastic composite film standard does not specify the composite strength index of the paper aluminum layer in the paper aluminum-plastic composite film, usually we peel the paper layer apart, observe the transfer of paper fibers, if there is a layer of paper fibers left on the aluminum foil surface, it indicates that the composite strength is good at room temperature. Paper aluminum delamination has many manifestations and different mechanisms. When paper aluminum plastic heat sealing, due to the poor heat transfer of paper, it is necessary to set a higher heat sealing temperature, and sometimes the heat is as high as 200℃, which is a greater test for the heat resistance of the rubber layer. In addition, under the action of heat above 200℃, the paper will lose water and produce a certain shrinkage stress, which will aggravate the phenomenon of thermal seal delamination.

In addition, under the action of heat above 200℃, the paper will lose water and produce a certain shrinkage stress, which will aggravate the phenomenon of thermal seal delamination. Delamination only appeared in the heat sealing part, and the strength of the parts without heat sealing was good The heat of the hot sealing knife leads to the deterioration of the bonding fastness, which is generally separated from the internal delamination of the adhesive layer, which can be analyzed with PU dyeing agent. Main factor: the heat resistance of the adhesive itself is not enough. Countermeasure: The appropriate adhesive type number should be selected. The crosslinking curing of adhesives is inadequate. Reason: the curing temperature time is not enough, the free water in the paper is too little. Countermeasure: Prolong the curing time and humidify the paper properly. The composite strength of the heat-sealed part and the non-heat-sealed part is poor The amount of glue layer left between the paper surface and the aluminum foil interface is too small Possible factors: The paper absorbency is too strong, the coating amount is low.
