Method for Testing and Analyzing the Printing Performance of Fluorescent Inks

Abstract:

In recent years, fluorescent ink, with a unique color performance and the advantages of green non-toxic, fast drying, thin ink, etc., is widely used in packaging printing, security printing, and other fields. What^’s more, the luminescent properties and the interaction with paper of fluorescent ink are pained more and more attention. In this experiment, an ultraviolet light source is used to motivate the samples to emit, the fiber spectrophotometer is used to receive the reflected light of the samples in the vertical direction of the samples. The tone rendering curve and dot gain curve are obtained according to the radiation energy data of the sample, the printing indicators of fluorescent ink are obtained by analyzing the reproducing image tone scale and dot expansion characteristics of ink on the paper.
