Abstract

See full text

An ink composition useful for digital offset printing applications includes a colorant and a high viscosity thickening agent. A process for variable data lithographic printing includes applying a dampening fluid to an imaging member surface; forming a latent image by evaporating the dampening fluid from selective locations on the imaging member surface to form hydrophobic non-image areas and hydrophilic image areas; developing the latent image by applying an ink composition comprising an ink component to the hydrophilic image areas, the ink composition comprising a high viscosity thickening agent to raise the viscosity of the composition from about 1.05 to about 2 times higher while maintaining excellent transfer to a substrate at low temperatures.
