Ink

Printing ink is a combination of finely powdered and dispersed pigments.
Printing inks are complicated mixtures of chemical compounds. The composition of printing inks varies by the printing process and by the target substrate. It varies by drying mechanism and by whether the drying is by primarily chemical, e.g., oxidation polymerization, ultraviolet cure, or physical processes, e.g., evaporation, absorption.

Printing inks are made of four basic components:
– Pigments : to color the ink and make it opaque
– Resins : which bind the ink together into a film and bind it to the printed surface
– Solvents : to make the ink flow so that it can be transferred to the printing surface
– Additives : which alter the physical properties of the ink to suit different situations
