How to use eco-solvent ink better?
1. Due to some characteristics of eco-solvent ink, it is necessary to use continuous supply carefully.
2. Eco-solvent ink can achieve coating-free printing on some materials, or use printer heating and other means to achieve coating-free printing, but for some smooth surfaces, ink alone is powerless, and the ink will pile up. , Can not image clearly. Then it must be used with a special coating liquid.
Three advantages of using coatings:
1. The drying speed is fast. The coating is formulated with special chemical materials and used with eco-solvent inks. It dries within one minute after printing, especially on smoother materials like glass.
2. The printing quality is good. It is printed directly on some materials without coating, mainly smooth and non-absorbent. The effect is poor, and the effect after the coating is extraordinary.
3. Abrasion resistance and water resistance. Because of the adhesive component in the coating ingredients, the adsorption force of the ink and the material after printing is very close, which is far more than the abrasion resistance of the uncoated state.
Eco-solvent ink has some of the advantages of various inks and is a product with a wide range of applications. However, some manufacturers describe this type of ink as amazing, which is irresponsible, and good inks also need correct methods to do so.
