Section one Summary

One Features and classification

Water based varnish includes main agents, solvent and adjuvant agents, which are colourless, flavourless, very transparent, nontoxic, no volatile organic compounds emitting, low cost and many sources, these features are that other solvent varnishes can not compare with. Plus, if add some main and adjuvant agents, it will become more polishing.

According to purposes of Water based varnish, it has high, normal and semi-gloss. In aspect of processing craftwork, there are ink glazing, pelton glazing (using common water of offset printer and ink), specialized glazing machine and in-line varnishing. People can avoid harmness and environmental pollution during processing water based varnish, to which has been already paid attention by food, tobacco and printing enterprises.

Main solvent of water based varnish is water, it has almost no emission, and its leveling performance is very good; however, there are some weaknesses, such as slow drying and unstable size. Thus, there need to add appropriate ethanol to improve drying and processing.

Volume of fabric printing: printing machine is using 2 to 5g/m2.
Glazing machine is using 4 to 8g/m2.
Hot iron performance: 4 to 8g/m2.

Two Analysis on performance of water based varnish products.

Water based varnish is a new environmental printing material, but it has no advantage in competition with other same kinds of solvent based varnish in long time, because it is a new product. China should strengthen relavent law making and executing; strictly control VOC emission via enhancing safety examination of printing products; and limit the using of solvent based varnish to protect environment and health of operators. In terms of technology, water based varnish will replace solvent based varnish sooner or later; but solvent based varnish has long history in producing, mature technology, low cost, and pringting enterprises donot want to change to use other kinds of varnish, as well as lagging of relavent law, so that solvent based varnish will still exist for a while. UV based varnish belongs to the same kind of environmental protection material, there are many features in technology, thus water based varnish can not replace of UV, and it will continue to develop. Water based varnish is just under beginning and developing period, its technology is developing very fast.

Meanwhile, water based varnish is tending to be localized; its cost is lowering down; and market competitivity is increasing. In the future, water based varnish must be key product in printing market as a environmental protection materal. Besides, consumption of varnish is increasing to 15% to 50% annually.

1. Features of water based polisher

Water based varnish is more convenient when using in the gravure machine, it is very important to control viscosity of water based varnish, depth of anilox roller and temperature of oven. According to experience, generally viscosity of water based varnish is controlled to be around 15 seconds ( 20℃); depth of anilox roller is 20um ， 200L/in; temperature of oven is 120℃ （ 100Kw×2 ） to polish under 150m/min, volume of fabric printing is 5g/m2; it is dry when polishing, and can directly iron and model-cutting. Water based varnish is different from other kinds of varnish when using on the offset-printing machine. Solvent based varnish can use existed printing machines and inks with PS. But the weaknesses of this polishing are that brightness is not enough; not strong enough; easily fading; and can not wet-on-wet polishing, especially when full version printing. Offset-line coating application methods alone on the water polishing it with the original Offset Group oily imprint on just different. It uses the Gravure Ink carrier principle, Mexico and scraping knives through metal roller transfer Resin Varnish or purchased in Blanket, After the coating material to the printer on. Under normal circumstances, Varnish viscosity of 20 seconds (20 ° C measurement) Metal sculptures -- a depth of 23 μg roller m,150l/in, coating capacity of 5g/m2. temperature of 65 ° C, infra-red power of 5.4Kw × 5 × 2 support group, the total power 54Kw% 13000 per hour speed of the machine operates, instant dry, dusting, and hot foil stamping immediately, die. However, special attention should be paid to the plane is even in the wet on wet conditions, the ink may not fully dry. need about four hours before drying and hot foil stamping.

As mentioned above, the water Varnish is technologically advanced, easy to use, economical, practical, non-toxic pollution and other advantages, have broad prospects for development, and will gradually replace oily solvent Varnish. dominant position in the printing industry.

2 、 Ink composition

Ink mainly by the main agent, solvent, auxiliary three major components

a. Main agent. Ink-forming resin is the main agent, the Polish film material, usually synthetic resin. It affects the physical properties of a deeper level and support the polishing and coating quality, such as gloss, adhesion, dry;

b. Auxiliaries. Water additives to improve performance and processing characteristics of the physical and chemical polishing agent. Promoter : the type of curing agent. Water main agent to improve the film, increased film inward strength; Surfactant. Lowering the surface tension of water solvent, to improve flow level; Defoamer. Polish long-term control of the foaming agent can eliminate fish, such as pinhole quality defects; Desiccant. The drying rate increase water polishing agent, an improved printing paper; Help viscosity. Substrate material and improve film adhesion; Wetting and dispersion agent. Host improve the dispersion to prevent tainted dirt and wear; Folding can improve the performance of other additives such as plasticizers;

c. Solvent. Dispersed or dissolved in the solvent is the main role of synthetic resin and additives. Ink solvent is water. Volatile water to nearly zero, a very good flow properties of peace. However, water is used as the solvent Ink also has shortcomings, such as slow drying, easily lead to instability and other technology products fault size.

3 、 Ink application

As the market economy, rapid and steady development of the commodity economy, food packaging of books, magazine covers, calendars, photographs, PCS, tastefully printed packets of increasing importance, not only in the exquisite color screen printing requirements. but with the magnificent surface gloss, gloss paint Varnish is printed on the material produced by the special effects. Varnish in print on coated products can not only increase the value of printing, but also can increase the performance of optical-resistant ink. Ink increase heat, moisture-proof ability to protect the imprinted products to improve printing performance. printing to generate considerable economic benefits.

Coated Polish market is a diverse market, food printing, publications printing, commercial printers. Property printing and folding carton packaging for a variety of printing products have varying degrees of polishing needs. Ink should be applied according to different polishing method, the type of paper, product quality and other factors considered. can be achieved good results.

With the development of society, mankind has been to raise awareness of the need to protect the environment for the printing industry. been a gradual increase in the number of health, environmental protection, labor protection and other aspects of the requirements and limitations. especially for food packaging printing requirements more stringent, the only way to meet international health standards. Therefore, the development and application of clean, pollution-free "green" materials is unavoidable. Ink have the non-toxic, tasteless, high gloss, and other convenient features. In recent years the area has been widely used in packaging and printing, and the achievement of a rising trend.
