Domestic UV Ink Market Scan (Part 2)

Due to the thicker ink layer of the printed matter, the ink is difficult to dry. If there is no drying device, it is difficult for the printed matter to accumulate and collect. It is very difficult to achieve high-speed, high-speed printing with a high degree of automation. With the use of UV inks, all this becomes possible. In the printing of discs, all UV inks are used to increase the production efficiency.

In screen printing, the use of some decorative UV inks can also produce some special effects to improve product quality, and these special effects are difficult or impossible to achieve in other printing methods. At present, the following types of inks are commonly used: UV screen printing imitation metal etching ink, UV screen printing wrinkle ink, UV screen printing coral ink, UV screen printing ice printing ink, UV screen printing refraction ink, UV screen printing crystal grain ink, etc. .

In addition, with the development of the combination printing machine in which screen printing is combined with gravure printing, offset printing, and flexographic printing, screen printing UV ink has found another application.

5.UV inkjet ink

In addition to the above-mentioned UV inks, there is also a UV ink worthy of attention, that is, the latest UV inkjet ink.

In order to apply UV curing technology to inkjet inks, a flat bed inkjet printer adopting the new piezoelectric nozzle technology is strongly promoting the application of UV curing technology in inkjet inks. This machine follows the concept of “one pass”. Designed and manufactured to print on a variety of soft and hard substrates. In addition, piezoelectric showerhead technology is also used today in combination printers and stand-alone printers.

These new areas of use of inkjet inks can provide a development opportunity for UV inks and are expected to reach the current scale of screen printing. The advantage of UV inkjet inks is that it not only combines the economic and technical advantages of traditional UV technology, but also highlights its advantages in use and operation, mainly in the following points.

(1) No volatile organics;
(2) Low energy demand;
(3) Fast curing;
(4) Suitable for a variety of soft and hard substrates;
(5) Do not dry before curing;
(6) Do not block the nozzle and do not need to clean the nozzle;
(7) Ink composition is stable;
(8) Good print quality—brilliance, friction resistance, water resistance, light resistance;
(9) No ink wasted.

Therefore, UV inkjet inks are currently developing very fast, and have a great tendency to replace traditional inkjet inks.

6 .UV Printed Circuit Board Ink

In the circuit board production process, a part of the work needs to be completed by printing, so it is called a printed circuit board. The UV inks used in printed circuit boards include UV inks for resist (including plating resistance), UV inks for solder resist, and UV inks for character marks, all of which are printed by screen printing.

Domestic UV ink development

Although domestic UV inks started late, they have been thriving with the sustained rapid growth of the domestic economy in recent years. According to the inaccurate statistics of the China Radiation Society Professional Committee on Radiation Curing, China's 2004 UV ink production reached 9056.5 tons (as shown in Table 1), an increase of 39.0% over 2003, and the output value was 59.29 million yuan, an increase of 34.3% over 2003. Among them, UV offset printing inks broke through the 10,000-ton mark, reaching 1,459 tons; UV photo-imaging solder-resistance inks also exceeded the one-kiloton mark and reached 1,184 tons; a small amount of UV fiber-optic coloring inks were also produced, filling our country’s technical expertise in this area. blank. In 2004, the development speed of UV offset printing inks, UV gravure printing inks, UV flexo printing inks, and UV photo-imaging solder mask printing inks in China was very fast. Both of them were doubling in growth and had a good market potential.

The production of UV inks in China is mainly concentrated in East China and South China. There are not many UV ink manufacturers in the northern region. However, due to the Tianjin Ink Factory, the production volume is also relatively large. The weakest is the western region.

The starting point of China's UV ink market is relatively low, and there is a greater market prospect. UV inks will develop rapidly in the next few years.
