The solvents of traditional oily ink mainly include aromatic hydrocarbons such as benzene, xylene and some alcohols, solvents such as butanone and acetic acid esters or organic solvents called dispersants, as well as stabilizers. Among them, aromatic hydrocarbons are harmful to human body, and of course those heavy metal pigments such as lead and chromium. The water-based ink is a new type of printing ink with water as dispersant, it greatly reduces the use of organic solvents and thus solves the printing and reading process of the harm to the human body, but also greatly reduces the pollution and damage to the surrounding environment, to ensure the sustainable development of the ecological environment.
According to relevant information reports, in the United States and some European countries have banned the use of solvent-based inks containing benzene, replaced by green ink. At present, 40% of plastic printing in the United States uses water-based inks. Other developed countries, such as Japan, Germany, France, etc., are also increasingly using water-based inks in plastic film printing. The United Kingdom also made legislation in June 2003 to prohibit the use of solvent-based inks to print food packaging films.
