    Raw material testing for book printing quality

    From the process of digital printing in book printing process, the raw materials used in digital printing are mainly paper and ink, which will directly affect the printing output work and color gamut space of printing output. Only the stability of raw materials can ensure the stability of printing output.

     

    01 paper

     

    Digital printing has a wide range of substrates, but paper is still the main substrate. With the development of technology, digital printing has higher requirements for paper performance and printability. The physical and chemical properties, mechanical properties and optical properties of paper used in digital printing and traditional printing are different.

     

    (1) Physical and chemical properties

     

    The physical and chemical properties of paper include the physical and chemical properties of paper.

     

    Among them, the physical properties of paper include weight, thickness, tightness, ink absorption and smoothness. In digital printing of book printing , the paper transmission speed greatly affects the quality of printed matter. The paper weight, stiffness and paper fiber arrangement direction will affect the paper transportation. If the paper weight exceeds 100g / m2, if the stiffness is enough, it will not bring problems to the transmission. When the paper weight is less than 200g / m2, the paper fiber arrangement direction and the printing machine running direction should be consistent; when the paper weight exceeds 200g / m2, the paper fiber arrangement direction and the printing machine running direction should be mutually perpendicular. The friction free paper transmission system is completed with the aid of vacuum system, which requires the paper surface as smooth as possible and less pinholes.

     

    In addition, the thickness of paper should be uniform in digital printing of book printing, so as not to affect the uniformity of printing ink. The paper tightness can not be too large, otherwise it is easy to cause paper embrittlement, and the opacity of paper and ink absorption performance will also decline; but the paper must have a certain degree of tightness, so as to have tensile strength. The ink absorption speed of paper should not be too fast or too slow. If it is too fast, the ink imprint will be dull, even powdered and transparent, the printing density will be reduced, and the color phase will be changed. If it is too slow, the fixing speed of the ink will be reduced, and adhesion or dirt will be caused. Exquisite printing requires high smoothness of paper, so that ink can be transferred completely and obtain high gloss printed matter.

     

    The chemical properties of paper include water content, acidity and alkalinity. In electrostatic dry powder digital printing, the toner needs to be heated to 120 ~ 150 � to be fixed. The paper will become brittle due to the loss of moisture, and it is easy to break when folding. To solve this problem, the paper with 30% relative humidity is prepared in the digital printing system or the paper is fed in the air-conditioned environment, and the paper with compact fiber interwoven structure and elastic coating should be selected. In the acid-base property of paper, the ideal paper should be neutral. However, due to the complexity of the pulping and papermaking process, the produced paper may be acidic or alkaline. When the ink is printed on the acid or alkali paper, the color of the ink will fade after a period of time, which will make the printed products lose luster.

     

    (2) Mechanical properties

     

    The mechanical properties of paper include tensile strength, tearing degree and so on. The tensile strength of paper is very important for book paper, especially for high-speed digital printing press. If the tensile strength of paper is low, there will be hair and powder dropping, and the glossiness of printed matter will also be reduced. Digital printing paper needs to have a high degree of internal tear and edge tear, which is because in digital printing, paper is easy to break, tear and other phenomena, which reduces the printing efficiency and book printing quality.

     

    (3) Optical properties

     

    The optical properties of paper include whiteness, glossiness and opacity. Digital printing has strict requirements on the glossiness of paper. Whether using fast drying ink or slow drying ink, the glossiness of printed matter will increase with the increase of paper glossiness. However, the high glossiness of paper does not mean the high glossiness of printed matter, which is also affected by the smoothness of paper printing. The uniformity of paper luster is more important than the average level of gloss.

     

    Different types of printed matter have different requirements for paper opacity. In order to prevent people from seeing the pictures and texts on the back of the paper when reading, the higher the opacity of the paper used for magazines and books, the better. Labels, bills of lading, etc. do not require high paper opacity, as long as there is no through printing.
