Heat-set ink

Japanese: ヒート・セット・インキ(英語表記)heat‐set ink
Heat-set ink
Ink for high-speed printing that is designed to dry (solidify) in a short time when heated. It often refers to oil-based ink for offset and rotary letterpress printing, but in a broader sense it also includes solvent ink for gravure printing. A typical oil-based heat-set ink is used for multi-color rotary offset printing. It contains 20-50% petroleum-based solvent in its composition, and as the solvent evaporates while passing through the hot air drying device following the printing unit, the ink solidifies and fixes, forming a printed surface with beautiful color and gloss.

加熱することにより短時間で乾燥(固化)するようにつくられた高速印刷用インキ。オフセットおよび凸版輪転印刷用の油性インキを指す場合が多いが,広義にはグラビア印刷用溶剤インキも含まれる。代表的な油性ヒート・セット・インキは多色オフセット輪転印刷用のインキである。その組成中に20~50%の石油系溶剤を含み,印刷ユニットに続く熱風乾燥装置を通過する間に溶剤が蒸発すると同時に固化,定着し,美しい色彩と光沢をもつ印刷面を形成する。
