First, the environmental protection and safety characteristics of water-based ink:


Water-based ink is different from solvent-based ink, and the biggest feature is the dissolving carrier used. The dissolving carriers of solvent-based inks are organic solvents such as toluene, ethyl acetate, ethanol, etc., while the dissolving carriers of water-based inks are water and a small amount of alcohol (about 3% to 5%).


Because water is used as a dissolving carrier, water-based ink has obvious environmental protection and safety features: safe, non-toxic, harmless, non-flammable and non-explosive, and almost no volatile organic gases are produced.


It is mainly manifested in the following four aspects:


1. No pollution to the air environment;


2. In the printing process, there is no irritating odor, and the production effect is improved;


3. Reduce resource consumption and reduce environmental protection costs;


4. Improve the safety of the working environment and protect the health of the operators.

Second, the characteristics of water-based ink:


The water-based ink does not contain volatile organic solvents and is non-flammable, which reduces the emission of VOCs (organic volatiles) into the atmosphere, thereby preventing air pollution, improving the printing operation environment, and greatly reducing fire hazards.


As a new type of printing ink, water-based ink eliminates the harm of some toxic and harmful substances in solvent-based ink to human body and the pollution to packaged goods. With the enhancement of human environmental protection awareness, water-based ink has been used in packaging and printing at home and abroad. And commercial printing has been widely used, and achieved good results.


Water-based inks are environmentally friendly. The products are non-toxic, non-corrosive, non-irritating, non-flammable, non-explosive, safe, easy to transport, low in viscosity, good in printing adaptability, stable in performance, good in adhesion fastness, and dry. Fast, water resistance, alkali resistance and good adhesion and wear resistance after drying.


It is easy to adjust the operation before printing, after printing and during the printing process. After printing, the printed matter appears full of imprints, bright colors, high gloss, gorgeous and rich, and complex patterns can also reach rich levels, and can print bright and high gloss. s color.
