Abstract
In lithography based on repulsion of ink and water emulsification is inevitably generated. Thus it is necessary to analyze relationship between printability and physical and chemical properties of emulsified ink. Transfer rate of ink is one of the important factor deciding print quality. And it is closely concerned with rheological properties of emulsified ink. Rheological properties such as flow, yield, plastic viscosity, creep, oscillation and tack tests were measured. In order to examine printability of emulsified ink, ink transfer equations, density, ink film thickness and gloss were measured.
