Note: Formulations given here are based on pigment concentrations used on the market. These inks are designed to be printed with anilox delivering 1.3gr/m and achieving the standard optical densities of prints. (1.25 for yellow; 1.4 for magenta and cyan and 1.8 for black). The black ink has been intentionally formulated as a monopigmented one, which is not the market reality, the difference being only about 1% of alkali blue pigment.

Notes: With this formulation the pigment paste is ground using a three roll mill. This pigment paste is then formulated with the diluents and photo initiators shown in order to produce an ink. These are starting point formulations, some adjustment will be required in order to optimize these formulations for a specific application. The viscosity required is around 500- 700 mPa.s at 2500 sec-1. An amount of HDDA (< 10%) may used. It should also help to improve adhesion but will lead to a slower cure speed. The photo initiator levels can be altered in order to change the cure speed. The pigment levels proposed here give standard optical densities of 1.25 for yellow, 1.40 for magenta and cyan, 1.80 for black at a coat weight of 1.0 to 1.25 g/m2. It is possible to improve the appearance of the black ink by adding a small amount of blue to it.
