[0043] S2. Preparation of ink: Add the ink carrier and solid pre-dispersed pigment prepared in S1 into a stirring barrel in sequence, stir at a low speed for 0.1-0.5h, then stir at a high speed for 0.5-2h, and adjust the viscosity to obtain the ink.

[0044] Furthermore, in step S2, the low-speed stirring speed is 50-300 R / min, and the high-speed stirring speed is 300-10000 R / min.

[0047] 5-40 parts of varnish,

[0049] Preferably, the varnish is a color ink carrier, and the diluent is a first mixed solvent.

[0050] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0051] The ink carrier uses cheap PVC to replace part of VC-VAC as a binder, which has a formula cost advantage;

[0052] Adding a small amount of phosphoric acid to the ink carrier can significantly improve the ink's adhesion to the attachment layer (upper or lower film), making the pattern of the printed product durable and firm;

[0053] The preparation process of the ink does not require frequent coarse and fine grinding like the existing ink products. It does not require expensive and inefficient sand mills or ball mills and expensive abrasives (such as zirconium oxide beads). The investment and maintenance costs are low, the production speed is fast, and the VOC volatility is low, which is good for the environment and the health of production personnel. The VOC content in the workshop is lower and it is not easy to cause fire and explosion accidents.

[0054] The heat stabilizer compounded in the grinding machine material can effectively prevent the burning problem of vinyl chloride and vinyl acetate copolymer caused by the ultra-high temperature in the local area due to strong shearing during the preparation process, such as black spots or agglomerations (loss of activity, inability to melt or dissolve);

[0055] The low molecular weight PMMA in the dispersant can reduce the impact strength of the vinyl chloride-vinyl acetate copolymer, enhance the brittleness of the solid pre-dispersed pigment, and make it very easy to crush it into tiny flakes, which is conducive to rapid dissolution in the solvent;

[0056] The particle size of light calcium carbonate is controlled at 2000-3000 meshes to prevent precipitation due to excessive size and poor friction effect due to excessive size. It plays a stirring role in the room temperature mixing stage and can ensure the stability of the melt size in the grinding stage, thereby effectively transmitting the shear force of the roller and breaking up the pigment agglomerates.

[0057] In the preparation process of the solid pre-dispersed pigment of the present invention, the grinding base generates heat and heats the roller through shearing and friction, thereby eliminating the investment and maintenance of heating equipment and also saving heating energy in the manufacturing process; the grinding base can be recycled and can also be added to the product without affecting the quality of the product, without waste and without generating solid waste;

[0058] The gravure printing ink prepared by the present invention does not use a large amount of expensive commercial dispersants, but adopts a homemade cheap dispersant, which can wet and disperse the pigment in the thermoplastic state of the vinyl chloride-vinyl acetate binary copolymer, and can also keep the refined pigment particles from agglomeration in the dissolved state of vinyl chloride-vinyl acetate. Implementation

[0192] Example 6

[0193] Take equal weight portions of color ink carriers Z-1 to Z-5 respectively, and compare them with equal weight portions of commercially available varnish oil, and the following table is obtained:

[0194]

[0195] Example 7

[0196] Equal weight portions of gravure printing inks M-1 to M-5 were taken respectively, and printed with equal weight portions of commercially available gravure printing inks A1 (the pigment component of A1 is inorganic pigment W-6), A2 (the pigment component of A2 is inorganic pigment BK-7), and A3 (the pigment component of A3 is organic pigment G-7) containing the same weight portions of pigments to obtain PVC decorative films. The following table was obtained after testing and comparison.

[0197]

[0198]

[0199] Tinting strength: reflects the overall fineness of the pigment. Based on the comparison ratio, the higher the value, the higher the fineness. The same weight of pigment will produce a stronger color.

[0200] Maximum particle size: the largest particle that can be measured macroscopically in the mixture, in μm, using the scraper fineness meter method. The smaller the maximum particle size, the better.

[0201] Vividness: The saturation of the color, the brighter the better; for white, it is reflected by blue light being good and yellow light being bad; for black, it is reflected by blackness and brightness, the darker the better and the brighter the better;

[0202] Low temperature stability: The stability of the ink during storage and transportation in low temperature climates should not show precipitation, stratification, agglomeration, etc. It is usually tested under accelerated conditions, which is -5℃*40 days;

[0203] High temperature stability: The stability of the ink during storage and transportation in high temperature climates should not show precipitation, stratification, agglomeration, etc. It is usually tested under accelerated conditions, which are 40℃*40 days.

[0204] Adhesion test method: print the color ink carrier (or ink) on the base film in equal parts by weight, dry it, and then attach it to the mask. Test the peel strength according to GBT 2791-1995 Adhesive T peel strength test method - flexible material to flexible material. The higher the peel strength, the better the adhesion.

[0205] It can be seen from the above test results that the color ink carrier prepared by the present invention is not lower than the commercially available color ink carrier in terms of dispersion stability, but is far superior to the commercially available varnish in terms of adhesion performance, and the gravure printing ink prepared by the color ink carrier prepared by the present invention has better performance in terms of color brightness and adhesion. By comparing the application examples of Y-1 and Y-2, it can be seen that by adding a composite heat stabilizer of 3,4-epoxycycloethylmethyl-3,4-epoxycycloethylcarboxylate, there is a synergistic heat-resistant effect, and the solid pre-dispersed pigment obtained by utilizing its synergistic heat-resistant effect has a better use effect; whether it is a color ink carrier, a solid pre-dispersed pigment, or a gravure printing ink, there is no need to go through an expensive and inefficient grinding process like commercially available products in the preparation process. After calculation, the gravure printing ink prepared by the present invention is only 40%-45% of the commercially available gravure printing ink. The gravure printing ink of the present invention is applied to production, which can greatly reduce the production cost.

[0206] For those skilled in the art, various other corresponding changes and deformations can be made according to the technical solutions and concepts described above, and all of these changes and deformations should fall within the protection scope of the claims of the present invention.
