Thermal Inkjet (TIJ) technology relies heavily on precision-engineered ink cartridges to deliver high-resolution coding and marking. Original aqueous (water-based) ink cartridges are optimized for TIJ systems, ensuring compatibility, print quality, and operational efficiency. This document details their composition, functions, and industry applications. 2. Functions of Aqueous Ink Cartridges 2.1 Core Roles Precision Ink Delivery: Designed with microfluidic channels to eject droplets (typically 1-10 picoliters) via thermal activation. Substrate Compatibility: Formulated for porous/non-porous materials (e.g., paper, cardboard, plastics). Quick-Drying Properties: Water-based inks absorb rapidly, reducing smudging in high-speed production lines. 2.2 Technical Advantages Chemical Stability: pH-balanced to prevent nozzle corrosion. Pigment/Dye Options: Dye-based for vibrancy; pigment-based for durability. Clog Prevention: Integrated filters and preservatives extend printhead life.
