Different ink, different applications
Technological innovation is due to adapting to new market needs. UV also belongs to the category of digital printing. Talking about the future of UV technology can not do without knowing the status of ink! The main inks include water-based inks, solvent-based inks, and UV-curable inkjet inks ( UV inks).
(1) Although water-based inks are low-cost and non-polluting, the screens made by water-based inks are mainly used indoors because of their poor weather resistance, and solvent-based inks are basically used as outdoor applications.
(2) Solvent-based ink does not require the medium to be coated, and its volatilization speed is fast, which can meet the requirements of high-speed printing. However, the biggest problem of solvent-based inks is environmental protection, because of the high content of volatile organic compounds in the inks, it will definitely be gradually restricted in the long run. Are there more environmentally friendly inks? Yes, weak solvent inks! Eco-solvent inks have high picture accuracy comparable to water-based inks, and can be applied to uncoated substrates. They are suitable for outdoor use. Eco-solvent inks are now the most popular inks.
3) Obviously, in terms of environmental protection, weak solvent inks are more environmentally friendly than solvent inks, but are there more environmentally friendly inks and processes? Naturally UV. UV inks do not contain solvents, there is no VoC problem, and the printing process is environmentally friendly, so it has become a new and popular process.
Sublimation transfer printing refers to the printing process of transferring dyes to fabrics via sublimation transfer paper. Thermal transfer is mainly used to make exquisite porcelain, metal business cards, signs, chemical fiber fabrics and other materials, which is more suitable for the market needs of personalized development! Due to the low cost and low industry threshold, thermal transfer has become a standardized process with transparent cost and fierce competition! Compared with thermal transfer, UV can print three-dimensionally. It is widely used in decoration, crafts, gifts, advertising, building materials and other industries to produce personalized products.
