Global Wetting Agent for Printing Inks Competitive Landscape Professional Research Report 2025

Global Wetting Agent for Printing Inks Competitive Landscape Professional Research Report 2025

Research Summary

Wetting agents, also known as surfactants or wetting agents, are additives used in printing inks to improve their ability to spread and adhere to various substrates evenly. In printing processes such as offset lithography or flexography, wetting agents help reduce surface tension between the ink and the substrate, allowing the ink to wet the surface more effectively and form a uniform film. This results in sharper, more vibrant print quality with reduced defects such as mottling, streaking, or poor adhesion. Wetting agents are especially useful when printing on non-porous or low-surface-energy substrates such as plastics, films, or coated papers, where ink adhesion can be challenging. They work by lowering the surface tension of the ink, enabling it to flow and adhere better to the substrate. Wetting agents are typically added to the ink formulation in small quantities and are chosen based on factors such as ink chemistry, substrate characteristics, and printing conditions. Overall, wetting agents play a crucial role in achieving high-quality, consistent results in printing applications.
