Marco Boer, VP of I.T. Strategies, discusses the importance of ink chemistry when it comes to inkjet printing technology. Whether aqueous, eco-solvent, latex, UV curable —or even the development of new hybrid inks that combine benefits of multiple ink chemistry technologies — ink chemistry development is critical for continued inkjet printing market growth and the expansion of inkjet applications. As a result, ink chemistry development is an area where inkjet industry suppliers are devoting a large percentage of their R&D dollars.
