Scope1.1 This test method covers the determ

3、ination of the weightconcentration of coarse particles in printing ink dispersions bysieve retention.1.2 This test method is applicable to printing inks, flushedpigments, and other pigment dispersions that contain particleslarger than 45 m. With proper choice of solvent, it isapplicable both to past

4、e and liquid inks.NOTE 1This test method is similar in principle to Test Methods D185.For particles under 25 m, see Test Method D1316.1.3 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as thestandard.

Summary of Test Method3.1 A 50-g specimen of the test dispersion is diluted, ifnecessary, with a reducing varnish, mixed with 200 g ofmineral spirits or other mutually a

8、greeable solvent, mixed in apaint shaker for 30 min, and passed through a tared 325-meshwire cloth sieve. The sieve is dried in an oven and reweighed.The residue is reported either as a percentage or in parts permillion of the specimen.3.2 The nature of the coarse particles may be identifiedthrough

9、the use of a magnet and visual or microscopicexamination.4. Significance and Use4.1 Coarse particles in printing inks reduce the efficiency ofthe dispersion process, requiring not only extra milling passes,but also frequent changes in pump filters. In printing processes,they may cause excessive wear

10、 to metal plates, piling orlocalized retention of ink on blankets and plates, and waterbalance problems. Coarse particles also reduce color strengthand the gloss of printed matter.4.2 This test method is suitable for quality control. Theprecision may be improved by the use of a specimen size largert

11、han that prescribed.4.3 Test results are sensitive to the type of washout solventused. Strong solvents are to be avoided because they maydissolve large particles of resin in the ink vehicle.5. Apparatus5.1 Wire-Cloth Sieve, preferably disposable, 325 mesh (45m), 60.3 mm in diameter; alternatively, a

12、 75-mm No. 325sieve conforming to Specification E11.NOTE 2Adisposable sieve is preferred for precision because it weighsonly 0.5 g compared to about 70 g for a conventional sieve.5.2 Washout Cup Assembly (for use with the disposablesieve), assembled according to the manufacturers instructions.5.3 Ba

16、ixing Container, such as a widemouth bottle or jar,with screw cap, capacity 473 mL (1 pt), preferably plastic. If aglass jar is used, a metal container such as a 1-lb coffee canwith lid and foam packing are recommended for protecting thejar while on the shaker.5.7 Spatula, suitable for mixing 100 g

17、of material.6. Reagents and Materials6.1 Washout Solvent, as mutually agreed upon between theproducer and the user. Type I mineral spirits conforming toSpecification D235 has been found useful for oleoresinoussystems. The solvent should be filtered through a 325-meshscreen prior to use.6.2 Reducing

18、Varnish, for high-viscosity or stiff dispersions.The varnish must be compatible with the test dispersion and ofa consistency such that a 50:50 mix will have sufficient flow todisperse in the washout solvent. An 8001200 poise-reducingvarnish has been found useful for flushed pigments. Thereducing var

19、nish should be washed or filtered, or both prior touse; otherwise, a blank must be run (see 8.11).6.3 Plastic Sheeting, about 150 mm square and 0.001 mmthick.7. Test Specimen7.1 Approximately 100 g of dispersion is sufficient toconduct two tests. If a larger specimen is preferred, increase theamount

20、 of reducing varnish (if used), the washout solvent, andthe size of the mixing container accordingly.7.2 Make sure the test specimen is representative of the lot.If the dispersion is a liquid ink in a sample container, hand stirvigorously for 2 min before removing the specimen.8. Procedure8.1 Weigh

21、out 50 6 0.1 g of the test dispersion into awidemouth jar or other mixing container. Using a spatula,spread the specimen into a thin film around the bottom andlower sides of the container.8.2 If the test material is too stiff to spread out or to mixwith the solvent (in 8.3) make a reduction in one o

22、f thefollowing manners:8.2.1 Weigh out 50 6 0.1 g of reducing varnish and add insmall increments to the 50-g specimen in the jar while stirringwith a spatula. Mix thoroughly until no lumps are present.8.2.2 Alternatively, discard the specimen in the jar. Weighout 55 g of the test specimen and transf

23、er to a slab. Weigh outan equal quantity of reducing varnish and mix in smallincrements with the specimen until no lumps are present.Transfer to the jar 100 g 6 0.1 g (of which 50 g will bespecimen) and spread out as in 8.1.8.3 With the spatula still in the container, slowly add, whilestirring, abou

24、t 200 mL of the prescribed washout solvent.Scrape the spatula clean into the jar.8.4 Place a plastic sheet over the mouth of the jar andtighten the lid. If made of glass, set the jar into a metalcontainer lined with foam or other soft material before lockingbetween the jaws of the shaker.8.5 Turn th

25、e shaker on and let run for 30 min.8.6 When the shaker stops, remove the jar, unscrew the lidand carefully remove the plastic sheet. Using a wash bottlecontaining the same solvent as in 8.3, wash down the plasticsheet into the jar containing the dissolved specimen.8.7 Tare a clean dry sieve to 1 mg,

26、 preferably 0.1 mg, and,if disposable, set in place on the washout cup assembly. Pourthe contents of the jar quickly through the sieve. Invert the jarover the screen and rinse out with solvent from the wash bottleuntil no color remains in the jar. Make sure that no residueremains in the jar and that

27、 all solvent from the jar passes overthe screen.8.8 Wash down the sides of the washout cup assembly (ifused) and the sides of the screen, collecting the residue close tothe center of the sieve.8.9 Place the sieve in a convection oven at 110C for a fewmin or until the screen and residue are dry. Cool

28、 in a desiccatorand weigh. Record the weight of the residue.8.10 Repeat 8.1 or 8.2 to 8.9 with a second specimen.8.11 If a reducing varnish was used (in 8.2) and it was notwashed and sieved, run a blank on two replicate specimens.8.12 Valuable information may be obtained on the nature ofthe coarse p

29、articles by visual or microscopic examination ofthe residue. Passing a magnet under the residue can help toidentify the presence of iron particles. Fibers can be removedwith tweezers and their number counted.9. Calculation9.1 Calculate the weight concentration, C, of coarse par-ticles either in perc

30、ent or in parts per million of the specimenas follows:C,%5SW 2 wS2B 2 w8S8D3 100 (1)C, ppm 5SW 2 wS2B 2 w8S8D3 106(2)where:W = weight of the test residue and screen, g,w = weight of the screen, g,S = weight of the test specimen, g,B = weight of the screen and the residue in the reducingvarnish (if u

31、sed), g,w8 = weight of the screen used for the blank, g, andS8 = weight of the specimen of reducing varnish, g.10. Report10.1 Report the following information:10.1.1 Sample identification and type of dispersion,10.1.2 Percent or ppm of coarse particles as the mean of twodeterminations,10.1.3 The spe

32、cimen size,10.1.4 The nature of the washout solvent and the reducingvarnish (if used), and10.1.5 Qualitative information, if obtained, about the natureof the coarse particles.D2067 97 (2008)1211. Precision and Bias311.1 PrecisionAn interlaboratory study of this testmethod was conducted in which two

33、operators in each of fourlaboratories tested in duplicate on each of two days threepigment flushes ranging in concentration of coarse particlesfrom about 40 to 90 ppm. The same lot of washout solvent(Type I mineral spirits) and reducing varnish were distributedto all participants. The test data were

34、 analyzed in accordancewith Practice E691. One laboratory was considered an outlierand was deleted from the analysis. The within-laboratorypooled standard deviation was 18.6 ppm, and the between-laboratories pooled standard deviation was 23.4 ppm. Based onthese standard deviations, the following cri

35、teria should be usedto judge the acceptability of results at the 95 % confidencelevel:11.1.1 RepeatabilityTwo results, each of mean of tworuns obtained by one operator, should be considered suspect ifthey differ by more than 82 % relative.11.1.2 ReproducibilityTwo results, each the mean of tworuns o

36、btained by other operators in the same or differentlaboratories, should be considered suspect if they differ bymore than 128 % relative.11.2 BiasBias cannot be determined as there are nostandard materials.12.
