Abstract

UV/EB litho inks continue to show growth and added utility in the printing ink marketplace. Improvements in printing equipment technology have now placed more demands on the liquid ink printability and the cured ink properties. Although the oligomers currently used in these inks have very good printing properties, there are deficiencies that need to be addressed. In this project, the printability and cured ink properties of new acrylate oligomer backbones will be evaluated and compared to current technology.
