Application scope of water-based ink leveling agent

Water-based ink leveling agent has a wide range of applications and plays a key role in multiple industrial fields. The following is its specific application scenario and value analysis:


1. Printing industry

Packaging printing

In the printing of plastic film, paper and other substrates, leveling agent can reduce the marks caused by ink accumulation and uneven surface tension, making the surface of printed products more uniform and delicate. For example, in food packaging printing, leveling agent can significantly reduce the phenomenon of ink overflow and floating, avoid printing blur, and improve the appearance quality of products.


Label printing

For high-precision label printing, leveling agent can improve the wettability of ink on the surface of substrate, enhance the bonding force between ink and substrate, reduce ink shedding, and improve the durability of labels. At the same time, it can also make the surface of printed products smoother and improve the overall texture of labels.


Advertising printing

In the printing of advertising posters, display boards, etc., leveling agent can prevent unevenness, spots and marks on the surface of printed products, make the colors more vivid and clear, and improve the visual effect and attractiveness of advertisements.


2. Coating field

Wood coating

In the coating of wooden furniture, flooring and other products, leveling agents can improve the permeability of ink on the wood surface, make the coating more uniform and smooth, reduce surface defects, and enhance the beauty and texture of the product.


Metal coating

For the coating of metal products, leveling agents can reduce the surface tension of ink, make the ink easier to spread on the metal surface, form a uniform ink layer, and enhance the adhesion and corrosion resistance of the coating.


Plastic coating

In the coating of plastic products, leveling agents can eliminate and reduce surface defects, ensure that the surface of the substrate is smooth and glossy, and improve the appearance quality of plastic products.


3. Special material printing

Glass printing

In the printing of glass products, leveling agents can optimize the wetting of the substrate, make the ink better adhere to the glass surface, and improve the clarity and durability of the printing. For example, in the printing of glass bottles and glass decorations, leveling agents can significantly improve the printing effect.


Ceramic printing

For the printing of ceramic products, leveling agents can improve the leveling of inks, make patterns more delicate and realistic, and enhance the artistic value and market competitiveness of ceramic products.


4. Functional printing

Conductive ink printing

In the field of printed electronics, water-based ink leveling agents can be used for the printing of conductive inks to improve the leveling and uniformity of inks, thereby optimizing the resistivity and stability of conductive lines. For example, in the manufacture of printed circuit boards, flexible electronic devices, etc., leveling agents can ensure the uniform distribution of conductive inks and improve product performance.


Anti-counterfeiting ink printing

In anti-counterfeiting printing, leveling agents can ensure the uniformity and stability of anti-counterfeiting inks during the printing process, making anti-counterfeiting patterns clearer and difficult to copy, and improving the anti-counterfeiting effect of products.
