印刷油墨耐光性及耐候性測試技術與分析之探討

Lightfastness and Weatherability Testnology and Analysis of Printing Inks

近年來印刷油墨的品質有了很顯著的提昇，這不外乎是對於印刷成品之耐光性和耐候性的改良，同時也和耐光性及耐候性試驗方法的進步有很大的關聯。對印刷品而言，要如何在大自然及周圍環境的光線照射下保持不褪色將是印刷品品質的重要指標之一，這其中也涉及了油墨的配方以及紙張成分方面的好壞與否。在本文中將介紹耐光性測試的各種方法以及測試光源的種類，並且舉出有關ISO、AATCC耐光（候）測試法的規格，文章的最後再介紹耐光（候）性分析之方法，讓大家對於耐光性及耐候性試驗的方法有更進一步的了解。

In recent years, there has been substantial progress in the quality of printing inks. This is mainly due to the improvement of the tolerance to light exposure and weather exposure of the printed products. The advanced methods of lightfastness and weatherability testing is also an important factor of the enhancement.As far as a printed product is concerned, the means of refraining its colors from fading when exposed to the lights of nature and surrounding environment shall be a factor of importance in pursuing the quality of printing, which is directly effected by the production formula of printing inks and whether the components of the paper is of high quality. In this article, we will discuss the different methods of lightfastness testing and the type of light source, and mention the testing methods and specifications of ISO, AATCC in regard to lightfastness and weatherability testing. Finally in this article, will discuss the methods for analyzing lightfastness and weatherability so that you may have a better understanding of lightfastness and weatherability testing methods.
