In recent years, EB printing free of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) has drawn attention in the field of flexible packaging printing for those seeking to reduce CO2 emissions and improve environmental friendliness.
Here we will provide an overview of the features of EB printing and the characteristics of our "Diatone Dreamcure EB series" EB offset ink.
What is EB?
EB stands for electron beam, which is produced using a system that artificially accelerates electrons as a beam for utilization. This technology has various applications, including cross-linking reactions, printing, coating, and sterilization.
