Solvent Ink & Eco Solvent Ink, what's the Difference Between them?

Do you know how to choose the ink between solvent ink and eco solvent ink? The cost of ink is a large consideration, but there are also the considerations of durability, adhesion, color brightness and coverage. Today,we will introduce the difference between them for you.

eco-solvent ink

Solvent ink refers to the oil-based solution that holds the pigment and resin, and has the advantage of being fade-resistant, waterproof and resistant to abrasion. They are cheap. This is the reason it is mostly used in many parts of the world.We have three types of solvent ink namely the carrier fluid, resin and pigment. It is oil based, but it dissolves very fast.  In order to produce the best quality, it is applicable in powder form. This type of ink works well in plastic or vinyl substances and this is because it’s polar. The solvent is not eco-friendly because its ink is oil based. On the other hand, it is non-renewable. Regular cleanings are mandatory to keep this printer running well. Letting a solvent printer sit around for a few days without maintenance will most likely result in the printer needing a new print head.

eco-solvent ink

As the name suggests, eco solvent ink is environmentally safe.Low- or light-solvent is perhaps a better name.The liquid solution in eco solvent ink comes from ether extracts taken from refined mineral oil. It doesn't contain harmful ingredients like cyclohexanone. This means that this type of ink is biodegradable. It can easily be broken down in the human body without any harm. An Eco solvent ink dries fast and offers a range of colors. Eco-solvent ink is ideal for billboards and other forms of signage. It is durable and is capable of adhering to covered or uncoated surfaces. It is the best way to save money by investing on this innovation. There are several types of printers which use this type of ink.

Finally, every ink has its use. It is difficult to assess the effectiveness of solvent and eco solvent ink separately. Every product has its advantages and disadvantages. The price and durability of the ink should help you find the best ink for your task. And our company has various inks in stock, please feel free to contact us if you have some demand about sublimation printing.

Do You Know The Difference Between The Sublimation Paper And Heat Transfer Paper?

  Hi, Nice to see you. How are you these days ? Long time no talking about the sublimation paper. If you have read about my article before you must know that we are professional in sublimation printing and transferring, also have have the sublimation paper manufacturer. Then with so many experience today I will solve a common problem of all of you and help you know more about sublimation. That is the difference introduce about the sublimation paper and heat transfer paper.   The main reason why people can't distinguish the sublimation paper and heat transfer paper is that they can all be used for patterns transfer onto the fabric and textile.The main difference is how the image physically gets to the substrate in the actual transfer process. This means there are also differences in the items that may be decorated with either process. In order to let you have a deep understanding about them I will have a detailed introduce in the next article. Then read the following an...

What’s the Difference Between Sticky Sublimation Transfer Paper And Sublimation Paper?

For sublimation transfer paper , we generally divide it into 2 types: the fast dry sublimation paper and the sticky sublimation paper. But most people just know the fast dry sublimation paper, because the applications of sticky paper is limited. But sometimes, sticky paper is also important. Tacky sublimation paper is one type of sublimation paper with a tackified coating. The tackified coating will be activated by heat. After the tackified coating is activated, it will adhere to the textile very firmly, so after the transfer is finished and when you lift the press up, the paper will still firmly adhere to the textile, it prevents the paper and textile from moving, the ghosting will not occur. The tacky paper is mostly used in stretch material such as lycra, the stretch material has a elastic, it is much easier moving during the transfer. But even though you are using the stretch material , doesn’t mean you still need to us tacky sublimation paper, that depends on the heat pres...
