Permanent Marker Pen ink with Vibrant Color on Wood/Plastic/Rock/Leather/Glass/Stone/Metal/Canvas/Ceramic
Feature
For a permanent mark to remain on a surface, the ink must be water-resistant and resistant to non-water-soluble solvents. Permanent markers are usually oil or alcohol-based. These types of markers have better water resistance and are more durable than other marker types.
About Permanent Marker’s Ink
Permanent markers are a type of marker pen. They are designed to last for a long time and to resist water. To do this, they are made from a mixture of chemicals, pigments, and resin. You can choose from a variety of different colors.
Originally, they were made from xylene, a petroleum derivative. However, in the 1990s, ink manufacturers switched to less toxic alcohols.
These types of markers perform almost identically in tests. Besides the alcohols, the main components are resin and colorant. The resin is a glue-like polymer that helps to keep the ink colorant in place after the solvent evaporates.
Pigments are the most commonly used colorant in permanent markers. Unlike dyes, they are resistant to dissolution by humidity and environmental agents. They are also non-polar, meaning they do not dissolve in water.
