UV Curable Ink

 


UV Curable Ink 

(3) Light curing initiator

Adding photocuring initiators (curing accelerators JAR-2, JAR-8, JAR-15) is an effective way to improve curability. However, excessive addition of the photocuring initiator will hinder curing. In addition, the odor will remain after irradiation, please pay attention to the specified addition amount (addition amount is less than 4%).

(4) Printing film thickness

The thinner the printed film, the better the curability. General colored ink can obtain sufficient curing performance in the film thickness range of 10-12μm. If the film thickness exceeds 15μm or more, poor adhesion may occur due to poor curing. Varnish-based inks have no problem in curability even if they are thicker than 100μm.

(5) Ultraviolet intensity W/cm2 and accumulated light quantity J/cm2

is the standard for judging the curability of ultraviolet rays and the amount of accumulated light. The intensity of ultraviolet rays is as described in 2-①, which is determined by the output of the lamp and the shape of the lamp house. In addition, the data of cumulative ultraviolet intensity and irradiation time is the cumulative amount of light. The amount of accumulated light varies with the number of lamps, the speed of the mesh belt, and the irradiation time.

The overall judgment of curability is determined by the amount of accumulated light, but for the internal curability of curing in the thickness direction of the printed film described in (4), the important thing is the intensity of ultraviolet rays. When the ultraviolet intensity is low, increasing the irradiation time and increasing the accumulated light quantity will not improve the internal hardening of the bottom of the printed film. In this situation, please lower the height of the lamp or change the lamp output to higher output. solving issues.

(6) Temperature and preheating during irradiation

The ambient temperature during uv irradiation has a great influence on the curing of uv ink. The higher the temperature, the better the curability. Therefore, if preheating is performed, the curability of the ink will be enhanced and the adhesion will be better.

The process of making different types of inks

One of the most important, integral and indivisible factors in ink manufacturing is   the type of pigment used in the ink . Everything from the appearance of the ink to the characteristics of the ink to the way it lasts depends on the pigments used to color the ink. Therefore, when you want to know the right type of ink for your requirements, it is important to know the type of pigment used in the ink. With the wide variety of inks on the market, it can be difficult to know which ink is best for the purpose you have in mind. When it comes time to print, having a guide to pigments and inks makes it easier for people to make the right choice.   Water-based inks and their pigments. While inks have many uses and they represent many businesses, one of the most common commercial uses of ink is for printing paper. Copiers, printers, and other such printing devices utilize digital printing methods, and the inks used for these purposes are usually water-based inks. Experts such as pigm...

How to Distinguish S3200, I3200 and 4720 printhead?

  Original Author: Coral Hwang At a special time, many large exhibitions have to cancel or delay. Without personal visiting, as a  Supplier of Textile Ink , we would love to share with you which new print heads become the mainstream in China digital textile and industrial printing market. Let us get started and see what is the difference between those new heads. Appearance and parameter The specific models are S3200 A1 and I3200 A1, 4720 print head, first let's take a look at the appearance of the three print heads. From the aspect of appearance, we can clearly see the difference between the S3200 print head and the I3200 print head. * all data only reference to 2020 released info, it does not indicate the final performance in the future Talk about the textile print head, we have to mentioned Epson 5113. Another non-easy identified sublimation print head from appearance, specifications, and performance. What’s more, since 5113 head stopped production, and locked head on market...
