Abstract

In Inklings 124, the March edition of Coates Technical Bulletin for Printers, the lead article traces developments in web offset inks, both heatset and coldset. Alongside careful raw material selection, pigment dispersion is becoming a most important factor in the production of the highest quality inks. The article also explains how ink technology has adapted to modifications in damping and inking systems, and how the inkmaker has coped with the shift to reduced grammage papers. The author emphasises that the development of improved inks has not come cheaply, and that the significant advantages in ink performance now offer tremendous value for money.
