A
new research report by Transparency Market Research offers a
comprehensive evaluation of the global Inkjet
Colorant
market. The study,
titled “Inkjet
Colorant Market - Global Industry Analysis, Market Size, Share,
Trends, Analysis, Growth and Forecast 2014 - 2020”,
is available for sale on the firm’s website.
Inkjet
technology is a printing technology used in large-format printers for
engineering and graphics arts applications, desktops, fax machines,
workgroup printers and several other industrial applications. Besides
printing on paper, inkjet technology can be used for printing on
metals, glass, plastics, fabrics, wall coverings and ceramics. The
ink used in inkjet colorant contains resin, colorant, solvent and
additives. Resin is the material that carries the dye or colorant. It
also is responsible in making the ink adhere to the surface, be
abrasion resistant and providing UV protection. The additives are
responsible for adding flexibility, better flow, formation, and
longer stability. The solvent determines the ink’s dry time and
enables mixing of the other components.

Some
of the major driving factors of this market include rising demand for
high performance pigments and growth in end user industries. The
paints and coatings industry is recording significant growth due to
growing printing industry. Printing ink is another application of the
colorants market. The demand for printing ink is driven by various
factors such as technological developments and increasing demand for
digital inks. The popularity of digital cameras has hugely increased
the demand for inkjet printers that can print photographs. Similarly,
increased use of colored documents has intensified office demand for
color printing, resulting in greater overall demand for high-speed
and high-quality printing capability. However, raw material price
volatility, its global over capacity and environmental concerns are
expected to act as restraints for the inkjet colorants market.
Some
of the trends witnessed in this market are shifting of the
manufacturing facilities from U.S. and Europe to India and China. Kao
Corp, a specialty chemicals company from Japan, has developed inkjet
colorants made of ultra-fine pigment particles encapsulated with a
unique functional polymer for use in water-based inkjet ink. This
technology offers excellent color reproduction achieved by giving the
encapsulating polymer a high affinity to the cellulose fibers in the
paper and by using compound colorants. This environment friendly
innovation is an opportunity for the inkjet colorants market.
The
inkjet colorant market has been segmented on the basis of product
types – organic pigments (blues and greens, high performance
pigments, azo and phthalocyanines), dyes (disperse dye , reactive
dye, VAT dye, direct dye, sulfur dye, acid dye, basic dye and
others), and inorganic pigments (iron oxide, titanium dioxide and
others). It can be segmented based on the following applications:
paints and coatings, textile, construction, printing inks and
plastics, leather and paper among others.
Irrespective
of the solvent used, all inkjet colorants have to follow certain
stringent criteria, which include - bright and vivid color, high
solubility, heat resistance, bleeding resistance, light and water
fastness, chemical resistance, low content of dielectric cations and
anions, substrate sensitivity and low toxicity. In the inkjet
colorants market, Asia-Pacific accounts for the largest share. This
region is one of the key markets for dyes and pigments production. In
the Asia-Pacific, India and China are the important countries
contributing towards the growth of this market.
