Pigmented inks contain other agents that ensure adhesion of the pigment to the surface and prevent it from being removed by mechanical abrasion. These materials are typically referred to as resins (in solvent-based inks) or binding agents (in water-based inks). Pigmented inks are advantageous when printing on paper because the pigment stays on the surface of the paper. This is desirable because more ink on the surface of the paper means less ink needs to be used to create the same intensity of color. 3, record 1, English, - pigmented%20ink

Les pigments : tous les fabricants ne sont pas en mesure de produire des encres pigmentaires. [...] Ce type d'encre comprend des particules minuscules que le papier n'absorbe pas et qui ne se casseront pas lors d'une exposition aux rayons ultraviolets. [...] Le processus de fabrication d'encre pigmentaire est bien plus complexe que celui de la fabrication d'encre à base de colorants de synthèse [...]. L'encre pigmentaire permet d'imprimer un texte plus foncé, plus net avec des couleurs qui ne s'atténuent pas. En effet, la couleur de tout produit chimique exposé aux ultraviolets peut changer alors que l'encre pigmentaire est résistante à la lumière. 3, record 1, French, - encre%20pigmentaire
