Cyclohexylamine (CHA) is an important organic amine compound and has a wide range of applications in ink manufacturing. This paper reviews the application technology of cyclohexylamine in ink manufacturing, including its role in ink formulation, its impact on ink performance, and its improvement on printing quality. Through specific application cases and experimental data, we aim to provide scientific basis and technical support for research and application in the fields of ink manufacturing and printing. <\/p>\n
Cyclohexylamine (CHA) is a colorless liquid with strong alkalinity and certain nucleophilicity. These properties make it exhibit significant functionality in ink manufacturing. Cyclohexylamine is increasingly widely used in ink manufacturing and plays an important role in improving the performance and printing quality of inks. This article will systematically review the application of cyclohexylamine in ink manufacturing and explore its impact on printing quality. <\/p>\n
An important application of cyclohexylamine in ink manufacturing is to improve the stability and fluidity of the ink by adjusting the pH value of the ink. <\/p>\n
3.1.1 Improve ink stability<\/strong><\/p>\n Cyclohexylamine can better disperse pigments and resins in the ink by adjusting the pH value of the ink and improve the stability of the ink. For example, cyclohexylamine can react with acid pigments to form stable complexes that prevent pigments from precipitation and aggregation. <\/p>\n Table 1 shows the application of cyclohexylamine in ink stability. <\/p>\n Cyclohexylamine can also be used as a curing agent in ink manufacturing to promote curing and drying of ink, and improve the adhesion and wear resistance of ink. <\/p>\n 3.2.1 Promote ink curing<\/strong><\/p>\n Cyclohexylamine can react with the resin in the ink to create a crosslinked structure, which accelerates the curing process of the ink. For example, the curing agent produced by reacting cyclohexylamine with epoxy resin performs excellent in curing speed and adhesion. <\/p>\n Table 2 shows the application of cyclohexylamine in ink curing. <\/p>\n Cyclohexylamine can also be used as a wetting agent in ink manufacturing to improve the wetting and leveling properties of the ink and improve printing quality. <\/p>\n 3.3.1 Improve ink wetness<\/strong><\/p>\n Cyclohexylamine can improve the wetting and leveling properties of the ink by reducing the surface tension of the ink. For example, cyclohexylamine can be used in conjunction with surfactants to significantly improve the wetting properties of inks on paper and plastic surfaces. <\/p>\n Table 3 shows the application of cyclohexylamine in ink wetting properties. <\/p>\n Cyclohexylamine can also be used as an anti-skin agent in ink manufacturing to prevent the ink from skinning during storage and extend the shelf life of the ink. <\/p>\n 3.4.1 Prevent ink crust<\/strong><\/p>\n Cyclohexylamine can react with oxides in the ink to produce stable compounds, preventing the ink from crusting during storage. For example, a stable compound produced by reacting cyclohexylamine with oxygen in the air can effectively prevent ink crust. <\/p>\n Table 4 shows the application of cyclohexylamine in ink anti-crust. <\/p>\n Cyclohexylamine can significantly improve printing clarity by improving the stability and wettability of the ink. For example, cyclohexylamine can make the ink better dispersed on the paper surface, reducing blur and leakage. <\/p>\n Table 5 shows the effect of cyclohexylamine on printing clarity. <\/p>\n Cyclohexylamine can significantly improve the adhesion of printing by promoting the curing of ink and improving the adhesion of ink. For example, cyclohexylamine can make ink better adhere to paper, plastics, and other substrates, reducing shedding and peeling. <\/p>\n Table 6 shows the effect of cyclohexylamine on printing adhesion. <\/p>\n Cyclohexylamine can significantly improve the wear resistance of printing by promoting the curing of ink and improving the wear resistance of ink. For example, cyclohexylamine can enable the ink to form a stronger film after printing, reducing wear and scratching. <\/p>\n Table 7 shows the effect of cyclohexylamine on printing wear resistance. <\/p>\n Cyclohexylamine can significantly improve the gloss of printing by improving the leveling property and curing speed of the ink. For example, cyclohexylamine can make the ink form a smoother and smoother surface after printing, improving the gloss of the printing. <\/p>\n Table 8 shows the effect of cyclohexylamine on printing gloss. <\/p>\n A ink company used cyclohexylamine as a pH adjuster and wetting agent when producing aqueous inks. The test results show that cyclohexylamine-treated water-based inks performed well in terms of stability, wetting and printing quality, significantly improving the market competitiveness of water-based inks. <\/p>\n Table 9 shows the performance data of cyclohexylamine-treated aqueous inks. <\/p>\n A ink company used cyclohexylamine as a curing agent and anti-curing agent when producing solvent-based inks. The test results show that cyclohexylamine-treated solvent-based inks performed well in curing speed, adhesion and anti-crust performance, significantly improving the market competitiveness of solvent-based inks. <\/p>\n Table 10 shows performance data for cyclohexylamine-treated solvent-based inks. <\/p>\n A ink company used cyclohexylamine as a curing agent and wetting agent when producing UV ink. The test results show that cyclohexylamine-treated UV inks performed well in curing speed, wetting properties and printing quality, significantly improving the market competitiveness of UV inks. <\/p>\n Table 11 shows the performance data of cyclohexylamine-treated UV inks. <\/p>\n\n
