Performance and stability of water based packaging inks rely heavily on the choice of raw materials used. Each formulation must be tailored to the specific end use for which it is designed. The techniques used for formulating solvent based inks don’t translate to the water based ones. When you formulate water based inks, new challenges occur (slow drying, poor ink adhesion, foaming, poor ink stability...) that you didn’t face with solvent based inks. 


Watch this tutorial and let our specialist, Terence Kenneth share concrete and practical tips to resolve these challenges with water based packaging inks.
