  2. 1. Interfacial Adhesion Failure : Impact on print-coating surface defects

    Author : Hajer Kamal Alm; Lars Wågberg; Göran Ström; Janet Preston; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Ink-paper coating adhesion; offset printing; calcium carbonate pigments; polyacrylate; dispersant; print mottle; surface chemistry; hygroscopy of surfaces; coating structure; print quality; water interference mottle; Fiber- och polymervetenskap; Fibre and Polymer Science;

    Abstract : The aim of this work was to develop a solid knowledge on formulation effects controlling offset ink-paper coating adhesion and to identify key factors of the coating and printing process affecting it. Focus lay on comprehending the impact of pigment dispersant on ink-paper coating adhesion and ultimately on the print quality of offset prints. READ MORE

  4. 2. Printability and Ink-Coating Interactions in Inkjet Printing

    Author : Erik Svanholm; Göran Ström; Gunnar Engström; Janet Preston; Karlstads universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; coating; inkjet; print quality; printability; pigment; silica; polyvinyl alcohol; colorant; ink absorption; Chemical engineering; Kemiteknik; Chemical Engineering; Kemiteknik;

    Abstract : Inkjet is a digital printing process where the ink is ejected directly onto a substrate from a jet device driven by an electronic signal. Most inkjet inks have a low viscosity and a low surface tension, which put high demands on the coating layer’s porosity and absorbency characteristics. READ MORE

  5. 3. Absorption non-uniformity characterisation and its impact on flexographic ink distribution of coated packaging boards

    Author : Sofia Thorman; Li Yang; Göran Ström; Magnus Lestelius; Janet Preston; Karlstads universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Liquid absorption; Absorption non-uniformity; Characterisation; Measurement technique; Print Mottle; Flexography; Coated packaging boards; Chemical Engineering; Kemiteknik;

    Abstract : There are high demands on flexographic print quality to be sufficiently high and consistent in order to create a competitive packaging. At the same time the production efficiency need to be high. Printers thus need to achieve the same quality every time and quickly start-up new printing jobs. READ MORE
