Q
What is the impact of the development trend of coating materials on the packaging printing industry?
A
The development trend of coating materials has a profound impact on the packaging printing industry. On the one hand, with the development of coating materials towards environmental protection and high performance, packaging printing enterprises need to constantly update equipment and processes to adapt to the application of new coating materials. For example, more photocuring equipment is used to adapt to the use of UV embossing aluminum varnish and 172nm excimer coating materials, which will improve production efficiency and reduce environmental pollution. On the other hand, the multi-functional and high-precision development of coating materials has prompted the packaging printing industry to constantly innovate, providing brands with more distinctive and value-added packaging solutions, such as using photoresist and other film surface coatings to produce high-precision anti-counterfeiting and decorative coatings, improving the quality and competitiveness of packaging. At the same time, the development of coating materials has also driven the packaging printing industry to develop towards digitalization and intelligence, in order to better control the application process of coating materials, realize precise coating, curing and quality inspection, and meet the growing market demand for packaging printing products.
Q
Do these coating materials have anti-counterfeiting functions?
A
Some coating materials have anti-counterfeiting functions. Photoresist and other film materials can be used with photolithography to create patterns with microstructures or special optical effects, such as holographic patterns and microlens arrays. These patterns are difficult to replicate and have strong anti-counterfeiting properties. Some UV-embossed aluminum varnishes can also use special embossing processes to create coatings with unique textures or optical changes, increasing the anti-counterfeiting performance of the packaging. In addition, special anti-counterfeiting additives, such as fluorescent powder and thermochromic pigments, can be added to the coating materials, making the coating exhibit different colors or luminescence effects under specific lighting conditions to achieve anti-counterfeiting functions. Through these methods, coating materials can provide effective anti-counterfeiting protection for high-end tobacco and alcohol packaging, preventing the appearance of counterfeit and inferior products.
Q
What are the process requirements for coating materials in packaging printing?
A
Different coating materials have different processing requirements in packaging printing. Water-based substitute plastic oil needs to pay attention to drying conditions. Because it uses water as a solvent, the drying speed is relatively slow. It usually requires appropriate heating and ventilation conditions to accelerate the drying process. At the same time, the coating amount and coating uniformity should be controlled to ensure the coating quality. UV embossing aluminum varnish and 172nm excimer coatings require specialized UV curing equipment to accurately control parameters such as the time, intensity, and wavelength of photocuring to ensure that the coating can be cured quickly and completely. At the same time, attention should be paid to the precision of the embossing process to achieve the ideal pattern and texture. The process requirements for coating materials such as photoresist are more complex, involving multiple steps such as photolithography, development, and etching. It is necessary to strictly control the process parameters of each link, such as the exposure dose of photolithography, development time, and temperature, to ensure the precision and quality of the coating and meet the strict requirements of high-end tobacco and alcohol packaging for details and precision.
Q
How do coating materials reflect brand characteristics on packaging for brands like NIKE?
A
On the packaging of brands such as NIKE, coating materials embody brand characteristics in a variety of ways. First, water-based plastic substitute oil can be used in colors that match the NIKE brand's color scheme, and it has good color saturation and stability, ensuring the packaging visually aligns with the brand image. UV-embossed aluminum-plated varnish can be used to create NIKE logos or patterns with unique textures. The gloss of the aluminum plating and the precision of the embossing process showcase the brand's high-end and fashionable feel. 172nm excimer coatings enable high-precision coating printing, presenting NIKE's brand elements clearly and delicately, enhancing the packaging's quality. For some product packaging, photoresist and other film surface coatings may also be used to create special anti-counterfeiting or decorative coatings, such as gradient patterns with unique optical effects or hidden brand logos, increasing the product's uniqueness and collection value, and further strengthening brand characteristics.
Q
How do the optical properties of coating materials meet the requirements of high-end tobacco and alcohol packaging?
A
For high-end liquor and tobacco packaging, the optical properties of coating materials are crucial. For example, UV-embossed aluminum varnish can provide high gloss and a good metallic texture, giving the packaging a high-end, luxurious appearance that attracts consumers. 172nm excimer coatings can achieve high-precision surface coatings with excellent transparency and gloss control, meeting the requirements of high-end liquor and tobacco packaging for exquisite appearance. Photoresist and other film materials may be used in some high-end liquor and tobacco packaging to create special optical effects, such as anti-counterfeiting patterns and microstructures. By precisely controlling the exposure and development process of the photoresist, coatings with unique optical properties can be achieved, enhancing the packaging's anti-counterfeiting and brand recognition. Water-based plastic substitutes can also be adjusted in gloss and transparency by adding special optical additives to meet the design needs of different styles of high-end liquor and tobacco packaging.
