Inks and Printing: Focus on Ink Adhesion, 2000 Polymers, Laminations & Coatings Conference Proceedings
Richard M. Podhajny--This presentation will address problem-solving techniques involved in analyzing a complicated ink adhesion problem. The specific example will involve ink adhesion failure associated with metallized paper labels used in beer & beverage packaging. Surface tension as well as chemical analysis is used to identify the cause of the ink adhesion failure.
