Ansys CFX is used here to build a model of ink fluid adhering to lower vibrator roller,form inking roller,and printing plate for analyzing ink transferring in inking process. Ink layer thickness on each position of the model is acquired to analyze the forming mechanism of ink layer on printing plate,as well as the influence of oscillation speed of lower vibrator roller and dot area percentage of plate on ink layer thickness of printing plate. It can be concluded that,in the case of fixed ink supplying amount,ink layer thickness increases along with the increasing of oscillation speed,and decreases when the dot area percentage is getting larger and the minimum is got when the dot area percentage is 100%. At last,experiment of plate inking on print ability tester verifies the correctness of the simulation analysis.展开更多

In this experiment, the properties of deinked pulp from three different additives--chemicals, black mold enzyme, and chemicals together with black mold enzyme, are studied. The first part of the experiment was to find the optimal amount of chemicals and the optimal pH through the use of sodium hydroxide and surfactant. As a result, 0.2% of sodium hydroxide and 0.4% of surfactant on oven dried weight at pH 9 was found to be the optimal condition for the deinked pulp to yield the lowest ERIC （effective residual concentration） and the highest brightness. The second part of the experiment was to find the optimal amount of black mold enzyme used in the deinking process. As a result, the optimal condition for deinked pulp to retain the lowest ERIC and the highest brightness was 100 ppm of black mold enzyme and 10 minutes of enzyme reaction time. The third part of experiment was to study the de-inking ability of black mold enzyme and chemicals. Consequently, with 30 min of chemicals reaction time and 60 min of black mold reaction time, the deinked pulp retained low ERIC but higher brightness.展开更多
