The invention provides UV white ink for
specialty paper as well as a preparation method and application of the UV white ink. The UV white ink is prepared from the following raw materials in percentage by
mass: 20 to 24 weight percent of
polyurethane acrylic resin, 8 to 12 weight percent of
epoxy acrylic resin, 8 to 12 weight percent of acrylic ester, 45 to 65 weight percent of
titanium dioxide, 0.5 to 1.5 weight percent of
wax powder, 5 to 7 weight percent of
photosensitizer and 0.5 to 1.5 weight percent of heat stabilizer, wherein the molecular weight of the
polyurethane acrylic resin is 20,000-100,000; the particle size of the
titanium dioxide is less than 0.36 mu m, the
particle size distribution is 0.25-0.36 mu m, and the density is 0.38-0.42 g / cm < 2 >. The UV white ink has the advantages that by adding the ultra-high molecular weight UV resin for improving the flexibility and
dispersity and the auxiliaries into the formula, the folding resistance and the friction resistance of the white ink can be improved, the
adhesive force of the UV white ink is improved, and meanwhile, the
titanium dioxide with excellent performance is added, so that the covering rate and the whiteness of the UV white ink are very good.
