Abstract
Disclosed is a water-based printing ink composition exhibiting excellently low foaming behavior with sustainability even under adverse conditions of high temperature and intense shearing force encountered in the printing works. The printing ink composition comprises, besides an organic polymer as the binder resin in the form of an aqueous solution or emulsion and a coloring agent, e.g., dyes and pigments, a silicone-based defoaming composition comprising a polyoxyalkylene-modified polydiorganosiloxane, polydimethylsiloxane, finely divided silica filler and organopolysiloxane resin mainly or solely consisting of monofunctional organosiloxane units and tetrafunctional siloxane units each in a specified weight proportion.
