In recent years, with the popularization of technology and market competition, many traditional state-owned enterprises in China have gradually lost their advantages in ink technology, and the cost advantages of other private enterprise products have also emerged, continuously expanding their market share. However, some traditional state-owned enterprises have failed to keep up with the technological transformation of the industry and the changes in the market. As a result, the situation has also changed, from others following us to us following others. Moreover, due to the popularization of product technology and homogenization of product quality, product competition has gradually become a competition of product price and service quality.
There are many types of ink with different physical properties. Some are very thick and sticky, while others are quite thin. Its composition can be divided into three parts: the liquid component is called the binder, and the solid component is the pigment (pigment or dye) and various additives. Different inks have different drying methods; The ink used in different printing processes is different; The ink used for different substrate materials is also different. The ink is classified according to its drying method, different printing processes, and substrate materials.
Printing ink is a paste like colloid formed by uniformly mixing pigments, binders, fillers, and other materials. Colorants endow printed materials with rich and colorful tones; Linking materials serve as carriers for pigments and also act as adhesives to fix pigments onto the surface of the substrate; Fillers endow ink with appropriate properties, making it suitable for various printing processes.
