Tin metal sheet raw material comes from:
(1) Iron ore is produced in Australia and Brazil
(2) Approximately 1 ton of tin steel shet can be extracted from 1.8 ton of iron ore
Application of tin sheet printed:
tinplate printed products are widely used in different types of food, canned beverages, daily cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and petrochemical products (gallon gas can) with their novel design and special exquisite printing effects And various packaging containers.
Tin sheet printing
(1). Selection of ink printing:
After the tinplate is processed by the inner and outer coating processes, it can be printed on the machine. Because tinplate has a smooth surface, low adhesion, and a certain degree of hardness and thickness, tinplate printing generally uses offset printing. Its printing principle: oil and water are not compatible , Dot conformation and color formation, selective adsorption. Tinplate lithography is basically the same as sheet-fed offset printing, but because of the particularity of tinplate, tinplate printing is different from ordinary offset printing in the following aspects:
① Printing ink
Ⅰ. Dryness and heat resistance of printing inks. The curing of printing inks needs to be heated and dried. Therefore, the white inks after heating must not change, do not turn yellow, the color inks do not fade, do not change color, and the varnishes do not lose light. Generally speaking, the ink needs to be fixed at 150 degrees Celsius for 10 to 12 minutes. Therefore, the heat resistance of the ink is more important.
Ⅱ. Processability, tinplate products need to go through stamping, perforating, bending, flanging, rolling and other processes, so the ink layer on the surface of tinplate should have a strong structure, and the printing ink should have good adhesion and flexibility , Surface hardness and impact strength.
② Varnish
After the tinplate printing is completed, a layer of varnish is required to increase the gloss and scratch resistance of the tinplate surface, at the same time increase a certain hardness, so that the printed surface coating film has a certain flexibility and corrosion resistance. The varnish should have the following functions:
Ⅰ. High hardness, strong adhesion, can withstand the processing deformation in the later process.
Ⅱ. Good color retention, the solvent in the varnish cannot bleed or fade the ink.
Ⅲ. Match with white paint or base oil, do not attack white paint or base oil.
