Advantages and disadvantages of UV inks
Release time:
2024-04-12
UV (ultraviolet curing) ink refers to the use of ultraviolet light of different wavelengths and energies to polymerize the monomer in the ink binding material into a polymer under ultraviolet irradiation, so that the ink is film-forming and drying. Because UV ink has good printability, suitable curing and drying rate, good adhesion, and has the characteristics of wear resistance, corrosion resistance, weather resistance, etc., it is widely used.

Because UV ink has good printability, suitable curing and drying rate, good adhesion, and has the characteristics of wear resistance, corrosion resistance, weather resistance, etc., it is widely used.
However, UV inks have many advantages and disadvantages. For example, the cost is too high, the technology is not mature enough, etc.
Advantages of UV inks: UV inks can print directly on a variety of substrates. This capability allows many printers with UV inkjet printers – often flatbed printers – to tap directly into vast new markets. In fact, many markets and products have already grown over the past few years with the special capabilities of UV-curable inks. The successful printing of UV inks on leather, glass, wood, metal and other substrates greatly expands our possibilities for innovation and profitability.
Disadvantages: This ink is very expensive. And the price of inkjet printers is also a bit higher than that of solvent-based printers, which may cause some confusion for printing companies that want to buy new equipment.
UV inks for UV inks mainly come from the field of ink development. Today, many companies that are using UV inkjet technology are looking for higher adhesion and durability on a wide range of substrates. Of course, ink developers have also made great efforts to achieve this goal in recent years.
Solution: As technology continues to advance, the durability, color quality and adhesion of inks will continue to improve. While breakthrough ink systems are just around the corner, we now have to choose between UV, solvent, and water-based systems. Therefore, the most important thing you should do now is to understand the advantages and disadvantages of various inks and choose a suitable ink system according to your needs.
