The Process
A true solvent ink will optimally wet the media, partially soften it, and use chemical binding agents to anchor the ink pigments to the media. Pre and post-heaters create the optimal temperatures for these processes to occur. The higher the solvent content the greater the chemical ingression into the substrate surface.
The Benefit
Graphics printed with True Solvent Inks will bond better to a far wider range of uncoated substrates, they will be more durable, offer better UV resistance, and withstand a greater degree of mechanical wear.
The Costs
Uncoated vinyls cost dramatically less than vinyls used with traditional water-based inkjet printers (Encad, HP etc) and up to half as much as specially treated media required with first-generation eco-solvent inks.
The Bottom Line
Solvent inks work better, cost less, and are more compatible. True Solvent Inks will outperform all types of first generation Eco-Solvent inks and second generation Eco-Solvent Plus inks.
