From the source, printing enterprises must first focus on the consumables when implementing green printing. In recent years, various green printing consumables, such as green printing rubber cloth, alcohol free plate lubricant, water-based adhesives, etc., have gradually entered the green channel of enterprise procurement. Today, let's start with green printed rubber cloth to further understand how to choose and use rubber cloth correctly. Let's take a look at Guangzhou UV Printing Caihui with you.
What is green printed rubber cloth
The green printing standard clearly stipulates that "ink, gloss oil, rubber cloth and other raw materials shall not add six types of phthalate substances, namely DINP, DNOP, DEHP, BBP, DBP, DIPD." These six substances are all fat soluble artificially synthesized organic compounds, low molecular weight phthalate compounds, which can pollute the environment and cause varying degrees of harm to human health.
Therefore, in order to ensure that the raw and auxiliary materials they use are environmentally friendly, printing companies will request green environmental protection certificates from the raw and auxiliary material production enterprises.
According to the deployment of the Ministry of Environmental Protection and the State Administration of Press, Publication, Radio, Film and Television, raw material production enterprises must first undergo SGS certification and SMDS certification (product safety technical specifications) for six categories of phthalates.
For printing rubber cloth, it is required that the printing rubber cloth production enterprise does not use raw materials containing the six phthalate substances mentioned above to produce rubber cloth. In addition, in the production process of printing rubber cloth, it is necessary to carry out waste treatment and noise control according to green environmental standards to meet the standards.
How to choose and use rubber blanket correctly
Although there are some differences between green printed rubber cloth and ordinary rubber cloth in the production process, there is not much difference in its use compared to ordinary printed rubber cloth.
When choosing green printing rubber cloth, the following two points need to be achieved:
One is to pay attention to the printing rubber cloth characteristics that the printing machine operator expects, such as good ink transfer, flat texture and color tone, good separation from paper, less prone to surface glue breakage, appropriate tearing and easy polishing, easy removal of paper edge marks, and smooth paper feeding on the roll paper;
The second is to choose a suitable blanket, first according to the corresponding printing conditions, and then choose a brand of printed blanket.
When using green printed rubber cloth, pay attention to the following four points
Firstly, it is important to pay attention to the combination of printed rubber pads;
Secondly, it is important to pay attention to the thickness of the printed rubber cloth lining;
The third is to correctly install the rubber blanket;
The fourth is to pay attention to the cleaning and maintenance of printed rubber cloth.
