Energy-curable inks are in strong demand in the printing field, with UV inks and EB inks being their segmented products.

Energy curable ink refers to inks that are cured using ultraviolet (UV) or accelerated high-energy electron beam (EB), including ultraviolet light curable ink (UV ink) and electron beam curable ink (EB ink). Compared with traditional inks, energy-curing inks have the advantages of being green, environmentally friendly, durable, fast drying, and resistant to chemical corrosion. They have broad application prospects in electronic and electrical, label printing, packaging printing and other fields.

​ ​ ​ Ultraviolet light curing ink, also known as UV ink, refers to solid ink made by solidifying liquid ink under ultraviolet irradiation. UV-curable ink has the characteristics of chemical corrosion resistance, bright colors, low energy consumption, stable concentration, and high viscosity, which can effectively improve printing quality and printing efficiency. However, currently, due to factors such as high production costs and high technical barriers, my country’s UV curing ink industry is developing slowly, accounting for less than 10% of the ink market.

Electron beam curing ink, also known as EB ink, has basically the same main components as UV curing ink, but does not use a photoinitiator. Compared with UV-cured inks, electron-beam cured inks have the advantages of stable printing results, fast printing speed, and less component migration. However, they require higher production equipment, resulting in higher production costs. It is expected that in the future, with the improvement of technology maturity, the production cost of electron beam cured ink in my country is expected to decrease, and its market space will be further expanded by then.

According to the “2023-2028 China Energy Curing Ink Industry Market In-depth Research and Development Prospects Forecast Report released by the Industrial Research Center, Electronic and electrical, label printing, packaging printing and other fields are the main demand ends for energy curing ink. In the field of electronics and electrical, energy-curing ink can be used for conductive patterns on printed circuit boards; in the field of label printing, energy-curing ink can be used to print drug labels, food labels, cosmetic labels, daily necessities labels, etc.; in the field of packaging and printing, energy-curing ink can be used Used in glass product packaging, food packaging, etc. With strong downstream demand, my country’s energy curing ink market size will further grow.

​ ​ ​ ​ Major global manufacturers of energy-curable inks include Covestro, Flint, Siegwerk, Sun Chemical, etc. In terms of the local market, the main manufacturers of energy-curing inks in my country include Guangxin Materials, Hanghua Ink, Letong Co., Ltd., etc.

         Industry analysts said that energy-curing inks have excellent performance and have broad application prospects in the printing field. In recent years, with the advancement of technology, the prosperity of my country’s ultraviolet curing ink and electron beam curing ink industries has continued to increase, driving the energy curing ink market space to continue to expand. In the future, as the development of downstream industries accelerates, my country’s energy curing ink market demand will further grow.
