About Ink Solvent
Solvents are substances or formulated chemicals that are capable of dissolving a solute (liquid, solid or gas) to form a solution. In printing inks, solvent is used to dissolve the pigments. Solvent facilitates proper flow and drying of the ink. Solvents with low boiling point evaporate quickly and leave the pigment on the surface of the substrate. Printing inks are mainly produced using four essential components, namely pigments, resins, solvents, and ink additives.
