The basis of a water-based flexo ink is usually pigment dispersed in acrylic resin solution, stabilized with an amine. The pigment is normally a crystalline organic powder, ground to an extremely fine dispersion using a bead-mill. The fine particle size gives the printer improved color strength and prevents clogging of the anilox. For white ink, titanium dioxide pigment is used. And for black ink, carbon black powder is used... The dispersion of pigment in solution acrylic resin is mixed with acrylic emulsions and additives. The blend of acrylic emulsions has a great influence on properties observed in the final ink, such as gloss, drying speed, rub resistance and water resistance. The amine is an important part of a water-based formulation as it affects the stability of the resin... 3, record 7, English, - water%2Dbased%20flexo%20ink

Print density(one measure of printability) is the optical contrast between the printed and unprinted surface... A higher ink application also has the effect of increasing set-off and rub-off. Set-off occurs when the still-moist ink smears off on the backing cylinder of the next printing unit, which then sets off the image onto the next page. Rub-off is when the ink rubs off on the reader's hands. These phenomena are related to the printing process used, and are caused by too-slow penetration of the ink into the paper or by inadequate drying. 1, record 16, English, - rub%2Doff

L'application d'une quantité d'encre trop importante aura pour effet d'augmenter le maculage et l'effacement par frottement. Le maculage se produit lorsque l'encre encore humide tache le contre-rouleau de l'organe d'impression suivant, qui dépose à son tour l'image sur la prochaine feuille. L'effacement par frottement a lieu lorsqu'un dépôt d'encre est laissé sur les mains du lecteur. Ce phénomène est attribuable à une pénétration trop lente de l'encre dans le papier ou bien à un séchage insuffisant. [...] L'imprimabilité est une mesure de la qualité de l'impression, les essais étant effectués dans des conditions normalisées; l'imprimabilité dépend de la technique d'impression utilisée, et des caractéristiques de la feuille telles que son état de surface, son pouvoir absorbant, son humidité, son épair, son opacité et sa blancheur. 1, record 16, French, - effacement%20par%20frottement
