Description

水性フレキソ印刷インキ組成物Aqueous flexographic printing ink composition
 本発明は、水性フレキソ印刷インキ組成物及びそれを用いたフレキソ印刷方法に関する。 The present invention relates to an aqueous flexographic printing ink composition and a flexographic printing method using the same.
 生活用品や産業資材等の段ボールを中心とした包装容器の印刷分野においては、水性フレキソ凸版印刷が行われている。近年、環境に対する取り組みが活発化しており、包装業界においても、植物性由来及び動物性由来の原料等の化石燃料に由来しない原材料を使用して、二酸化炭素の排出量を削減(カーボンニュートラル)可能なインキを実現することが、要求されるようになってきている。本出願人は、この要求より前に、バインダー樹脂として、ポリ(エチレンオキサイド/プロピレンオキサイド)ブロックポリマーの存在下で、ポリ乳酸樹脂を水性媒体中に分散させてなるポリ乳酸樹脂水性分散液を使用することを提案した(例えば、特許文献1参照)。しかしながらこれでは印刷適性、塗膜物性が不十分であるという問題を有していた。さらに食品パッケージの薄紙用途では、印刷適性、耐水耐摩擦性、耐熱性、耐油耐摩擦性等の塗膜物性が不十分であるという問題を有していた。 さらに例えば紙製食品用容器への印刷を行う際には、紙製食品用容器が使用される環境、つまり、水や油が付着する環境では、上記の性質の他に耐結露性、耐ヘキサン性を必要とするが、その性質を備えた印刷インキ組成物は存在しなかった。また、カーボンニュートラル可能な原材料を多く使用すると、従来のインキ塗膜物性、印刷適性が低下するという問題を有していた。 In the printing field of packaging containers mainly made of cardboard such as household goods and industrial materials, aqueous flexographic letterpress printing is performed. In recent years, environmental efforts have become active, and in the packaging industry, carbon dioxide emissions can be reduced (carbon neutral) using raw materials not derived from fossil fuels such as plant-derived and animal-derived raw materials It has become necessary to realize various inks. Prior to this request, the applicant has used an aqueous dispersion of polylactic acid resin in which polylactic acid resin is dispersed in an aqueous medium in the presence of a poly (ethylene oxide / propylene oxide) block polymer as a binder resin. Proposed (see, for example, Patent Document 1). However, this has the problem that printability and film properties are insufficient. Furthermore, in the thin paper application of the food package, there is a problem that the coating film properties such as printability, water and friction resistance, heat resistance, and oil and friction resistance are insufficient. Further, for example, when printing on a paper food container, in an environment where the paper food container is used, that is, in an environment where water or oil adheres, in addition to the above-mentioned properties, condensation resistance, hexane resistance Although needed, there were no printing ink compositions with that property. In addition, the use of a large amount of carbon-neutral raw materials has a problem in that the conventional ink film properties and printability deteriorate.
