inkspigmentbased
inkspigmentbased is a term used in printing technology to describe an ink system that uses pigment particles as the colorant, rather than soluble dyes. The pigment-based approach is contrasted with dye-based inks, which rely on dissolved color molecules. inkspigmentbased inks are widely employed in inkjet printing for professional photography, archival documents, and wide-format graphics, where longevity and resistance to environmental factors are important.
Composition and mechanism: The colorant consists of pigment particles suspended in a carrier liquid, typically water-based
Advantages: Pigment-based inks offer superior lightfastness and water resistance, wider archival lifespans, and better color stability
Applications and development: Used in professional photo printing, fine art reproductions, and archival documents. Ongoing research
