Abstract
According to one aspect, a printing composition of the present application comprises from about 3.00% to about 6.00% by weight of a pigment, from about 7.00% to about 11.00% by weight of a polymer, from about 13.00% to about 17.00% by weight of a co-solvent, from about 0.25% to about 2.00% by weight of a surfactant, and water.
Claims20
A water-based, non-white printing composition, comprising:
- from about 3.00% to about 6.00% by weight of a pigment;
- from about 7.00% to about 11.00% by weight of a rosin adduct ester-based polymer;
- from about 13.00% to about 17.00% by weight of a co-solvent, wherein the co-solvent is 3-methoxy-3-methyl-1-butanol;
- from about 0.25% to about 2.00% by weight of a surfactant;
- and
- at least 50.00% by weight water.

A method of printing, comprising:
- providing a coated substrate;
- applying a water-based, non-white printing composition to a surface of the coated substrate, the printing composition comprising from about 3.00% to about 6.00% by weight of a pigment, from about 7.00% to about 11.00% by weight of a rosin adduct ester-based polymer, from about 13.00% to about 17.00% by weight of a co-solvent, wherein the co-solvent is 3-methoxy-3-methyl-1-butanol, from about 0.25% to about 2.00% by weight of a surfactant, and at least 50.00% by weight water;
- and
- drying the coated substrate, wherein the coated substrate remains below a temperature to not exceed a threshold for dimensional integrity of the coated substrate.
