Abstract

In order to discuss the effects that cosolvent takes on ink used in water-borne pen performance and quality, select and use ethanol, methanol, isopropanol, Ethylene glycol monobutyl ether, ethanediol and propanediol six common water-soluble cosolvent, using them to prepare the samples of ink used in Water-borne pen, testing the surface tension, viscosity, drying rate and adhesionforce. Select three kinds of cosolvent to carry the formula experiment. The results of the study show that: the ink prepared with different kinds csolvent have different performance. The ink prepared by isopropyl alcohol has good quality performance.
