PRINTING INKS FOR OFFSET AND/OR HIGH PRINTING CONTAINING NIR ABSORBERS AND NIR ABSORBERS SOLUBLE IN OFFSET AND/OR HIGH PRINTING INKS

摘要

Printing inks for offset and/or letterpress printing which comprise NIR absorbers, and solubility of the NIR absorber in the printing ink is at least 0.1% by weight. NIR absorbers consisting of cyanine cation with an anion which has long-chain alkyl or aralkyl groups. Use of such printing inks for printing processes in which the curing of the printing ink is promoted by using IR lasers. NIR absorbers comprising a cyanine cation with an anion which has long-chain alkyl or aralkyl groups.
