This makes coding relatively difficult. The use of solvent-based inks is therefore required. The solvent will evaporate almost instantly after applying the coding, after which only the dye remains. These prints are therefore permanent. An alternative option is to work with thermal transfers or wax-based inks. In all of these techniques, bonding occurs due to temperature changes.<\/p>\n<h2>Suitable coding techniques for plastic<\/h2>\n<p>Permanent coding of plastic requires the use of <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff; text-decoration: underline;\" href=\"http:\/\/kortho.com\/en\/coding_solutions\/coding_equipment\/hires-inkjet\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Hi-Res Inkjet<\/a><\/span><\/span> in combination with solvent-based ink.
