Extended delivery, allowing added drying time, combined with hot, warm, and ambient air knives, and I-R emitting dryer systems are proven to be able to evaporate great quantities of water quickly. High volume air movement is essential to drying 60%-70% water containing aqueous coatings.
Fast-drying aqueous coatings have given the sheetfed offset printer the ability to seal oxidizing sheetfed inks in-line and move on to further processing. This, without waiting for the underlying, still wet, inks off-line time to dry thoroughly.
Aqueous coating is immensely popular, due in large part to it being one of the most economical coating options. Because Aqueous coating is water-based, it dries quickly and is very environmentally-friendly. It is recyclable and biodegradable. Aqueous coating is intended for use on coated stocks.
Mar 14, 2024 · Aqueous coatings are generally more eco-friendly than varnish because they dry quickly without the need for additional drying. It is done by using hydrophilic rollers but the varnishnig is done by using blankets and plates.
