%0 Journal Article %T Comparison Of Durability Between Uv Inkjet And Conventional Offset Prints Exposed To Accelerated Ageing %A Mirica Karlovits %A Diana Gregor-Svetec %J Journal of Graphic Engineering and Design %D 2011 %I University of Novi Sad %X The present study deals with the optical and colour stability of aged offset and UV inkjet prints. As a paper substrate,a film synthetic paper was used, which was printed by two techniques (UV inkjet press ¨®ce Arizona 250 GT andconventional offset press KBA Performa 74). Film synthetic paper, offset prints and UV inkjet prints were artificiallyaged using standard techniques of accelerated ageing, such as moist-heat (80 ˇăC and 65% relative humidity)and dry-heat (105 ˇăC). Ageing was performed for periods of 1, 2, 3, 6 and 12 days. It was found that the moist-heataccelerated ageing influenced the most on optical properties of film synthetic paper. UV inkjet prints had highercolourfastness than the conventional offset prints. The most stable among all tested prints was the black colour UVinkjet print. %K offset print %K UV inkjet print %K film synthetic paper %K accelerated ageing %K colourfastness %U http://www.grid.uns.ac.rs/jged/download.php?fid=116
