What are the more popular inks used?
The most popular inks used are water base, uv cured, and solvent based. Water Base – This ink technology uses water, resin, pigment, and an emulsifier to mix the ink. The water and emulsifier are evaporated off using heat and air to cure the ink. UV cured – The uv ink contains pigments, resins and organic solvents. The ink is exposed to uv light, cross linking the polymers. Solvent Based- Pigment resin and solvent are used to make the ink. The solvent is evaporated using heat and air curing the ink to the face material.
