It is necessary to give a equal print effect and printability to conventional ink as well as environmental care, and new development and improvement of components are necessary. In concrete, it is considered the resinous denaturation for keeping dissolution property as for the use for aroma free solvent, and the addition of polarity material to prevent roller shrinkage and change of components to maintain drying property.
