The influencing factors of acrylic emulsion resin in water-based printing ink raw materials
- 2025-09-25 17:39:55
- admin
The performance of the ink mainly depends on the resin emulsion; for instance, the viscosity, adhesion, gloss, drying, and printing adaptability of the ink are mainly determined by the resin. Water-based inks use water-based acrylic copolymer resins, as these resins have significant advantages over alkyd resins, epoxy resins, and polyurethane resins in terms of gloss, weather resistance, heat...

Characteristics of Three Common Resins in Water-Based Ink Formulations
- 2025-09-30 15:38:30
- admin
Water-based inks are primarily composed of a uniform slurry of binders, pigments, and additives. The binder is a core component of water-based inks. It not only disperses the pigment but also plays a key role in influencing ink performance, determining adhesion, water and scrub resistance, and solvent resistance. Three common types of binders for water-based inks exist: water-soluble resins, hydro...

How Waterborne Polymers Improve Flexographic Printing Quality
- 2026-05-07 14:50:35
- admin
In flexographic printing, the performance of waterborne polymers and resin systems directly affects ink stability, color consistency, adhesion, and production efficiency. Traditional water-based inks may cause anilox roller clogging during long production runs, leading to unstable ink transfer and interrupted printing. In comparison, UV flexographic inks cure instantly under UV light, helping redu...
