Possible adverse reactions of oil-resistant agents in application

2025-03-24

Possible adverse reactions of oil-resistant agents in application:


1. Compatibility issues

Performance: The oil-resistant agent is incompatible with the ink system, which may cause the ink to stratify, agglomerate or precipitate, thereby affecting the stability of the ink and the printing effect.


Cause: The chemical structure of the oil-resistant agent does not match the other components in the ink system, or the amount of oil-resistant agent added is too much.


2. Impact on ink performance

Performance: The addition of oil-resistant agent may change the viscosity, drying speed, adhesion and color of the ink, resulting in poor printing effect.


Cause: The oil-resistant agent reacts chemically with other components in the ink system, or the amount of oil-resistant agent added is inappropriate.


3. Printing failure

Performance: During the printing process, there may be problems such as poor ink transfer, shrinkage holes and fish eyes on the surface of the printed product, or adhesion and shedding of the ink after drying.


Cause: The addition of oil-resistant agent affects the wettability and spreadability of the ink, or the oil-resistant agent fails to effectively prevent the contact between oil molecules and the surface of the substrate.


4. Damage to substrates

Performance: Some anti-oil agents may cause damage to the surface of substrates, such as corrosion, discoloration or reduction of the strength of substrates.


Cause: Some chemical components in the anti-oil agent react with the surface of the substrate, or the concentration of the anti-oil agent is too high.


5. Environmental pollution and health hazards

Performance: Anti-oil agents may pollute the environment during production, use and disposal, such as the emission of harmful gases, wastewater or solid waste. At the same time, some components in anti-oil agents may cause harm to human health.


Cause: Anti-oil agents contain chemical components that are harmful to the environment, or appropriate protective measures are not taken during use.

In order to avoid these adverse reactions, it is recommended to conduct sufficient testing and evaluation before using anti-oil agents to ensure their compatibility with the ink system and substrates. At the same time, the amount of anti-oil agent added should be strictly controlled, and relevant safety operating procedures should be followed to reduce harm to the environment and human health.
