Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1NOTEAdded research report footnote to Section 11 editorially in September 2008.1. Scope*1.1 Th

3、ese test methods cover the manual and automaticprocedures for testing the compatibility of lithographic inkresins in high boiling ink solvents by precipitation temperature(cloud point) in a range from 35 to 210C.1.2 The manual procedure in this test method uses labora-tory equipment generally availa

4、ble in a normal, well-equippedlaboratory. The automated procedure uses the ChemotronicCloudpoint Tester.21.3 This test method is for use with ink resins intendedmainly for oil-based offset and letterpress inks. The type ofresins are typically, but not limited to C9aromatic hydrocarbonresins, modifie

5、d dicyclopentadiene resins, rosin pentaerythritolor glycerol esters, phenolic modified rosin esters, maleicanhydride modified-rosin esters, and naturally occurring resinssuch as gilsonite.1.4 A resin solution or ink vehicle could also be used in thistest instead of the resin.1.5 The typical high boi

6、ling solvents to be used are C12toC16petroleum distillates.1.6 To avoid fire or injury, or both, to the operator, this testmethod should not be used with low flash point solvents suchas toluene or xylene. The minimum flash point of the solventsused should be 60C (140F) as determined by Test MethodD5

7、6.NOTE 1Users of this test method should be aware that the flash pointof many solvents used for this test (as defined in Test Methods D56andD 1310) is exceeded in the heating cycle of this test method. Safetyprecautions should be taken since there is the potential for vapor ignition.The method outli

8、ned should be done in a shielded exhaust hood, wherethere is access to a fire extinguisher if needed.1.7 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as thestandard. The values given in parentheses are for informationonly.1.8 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, i

9、f any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.

Summary of Test Method4.1 A 10 % by weight mixture of the resin (or ink vehicle)to be test

17、ed in the reference solvent (or vice versa) is heated ina test tube and stirred until a clear solution is obtained.4.2 The solution is allowed to cool. The cloud point is thelowest temperature that can be read on a thermometer, posi-tioned at the back wall of the test tube, or in the case of theauto

18、mated tester, before the solution reaches the preset turbid-ity level.4.3 If the solution remains clear at room temperature, thetest tube is cooled (cold water, ice water, or dry ice/acetonebath) until the cloud point can be recorded. (Cooling belowambient temperature can only be done in the manual

19、method.)5. Significance and Use5.1 These test methods provide a means of determining thecompatibility of a resin (or vehicle), at low concentrations, ina high boiling ink solvent.5.2 Resin-solvent mixtures that exhibit a high precipitationtemperature are less compatible than those exhibiting a lowpr

20、ecipitation temperature.5.3 Resin-solvent mixtures that exhibit precipitation tem-peratures at or close to the cloud point of the pure solvent areconsidered infinitely compatible or the resin is infinitelysoluble in that solvent.6. Reagents and Materials6.1 Resins, (for example, modified hydrocarbon

21、, or rosinester resins, or both) or Ink Vehicle.6.2 Solvents, will be those commonly used for makinglithographic ink vehicles, for example, hydrocarbon petroleumdistillate C12to C16as agreed upon by producer and user.NOTE 2The use of ink industry recognized Test Ink Oils are recom-mended for evaluat

22、ing resins. The Test Ink Oils are controlled from lot tolot to ensure meaningful data.

26、 slowly as heat rises.NOTE 3To avoid loss of solvent while stirring, do not remove thestirring apparatus from the mixture.9.5 WarningCare must be taken in stirring the resin/solvent mixture not to drop the thermometer or stirring loop.This could cause the test tube to break, which could cause aserio

The maximum temperature to dissolvesuch resin and solvent mixtures can be much lower than 200C. In

28、suchcases the maximum temperature for the test should be one agreed uponbetween the customer and the supplier.9.7 Check to see that all resin is dissolved.9.8 Start to blow ambient air from the heat gun onto the testtube.9.8.1 If the mixture is not clear after heating for 2 min at200C, continue to h

Start thecooling procedure at this point.9.8.2 If the mixture is clear except for a very slight presenceof precipitate, continue to end point and note the presence of“slight precipitate.”9.8.3 If the mixture does not become clear or exhibitssignificant precipitati

This is observa-tion is defined as the precipitation temperature or cloud point(see Note 5 and Note 6).NOTE 5Cooling water, ice water, or a dry ice/acetone bath and a lowtemperature thermometer may be needed to reach the precipitationtemperature for very soluble resins.4National Associ

34、recommended for resins and solventmixtures exhibiting a precipitation temperature between 50 and 180C at10 % resin solids. If a mixture is out of that range, a change in resinconcentration (for example, 20 % solids) or solvent is recommended.10. Report10.1 A report on precipitation temperature shoul

Precision and Bias711.1 PrecisionAn interlaboratory study of the precipita-tion temperature of tw

36、o resins was run by seven laboratories.11.1.1 The precision estimates here are based on one analystin each laboratory performing triplicate determinations on eachof two materials.11.1.2 Practice E 180 was used in developing these preci-sion statements.11.2 Repeatability (Within-Laboratory)The standa

37、rd de-viation of results obtained by the same analyst running thedifferent analyses has been estimated to be 0.8 absolute at 20df at the 60C level and 2.4 absolute at 20 df at the 160Clevel. The 95 % limit for the difference between two suchaverages is 2.1 absolute and 6.7 absolute, respectively.11.

38、3 Reproducibility (Multilaboratory)The standard de-viation of results obtained by analysts in different laboratorieshas been estimated to be 4.1 absolute at 6 df at the 60C leveland 6.9 absolute at 6 df at the 160C level. The 95 % limit forthe difference between two such averages is 11.5 absolute an

Placethe test tube in the Teflon tube holder.16.2 Weigh 2.00 6 0.02 g of pulverized crushed resin(using the mortar and pestle) and 18.00 6 0.02 g of the solventto be tested into the test tube.

44、NOTE 7Care should be taken to wash down the dust on the sides ofthe tube with solvent.16.3 Place the test tube with test sample into theChemotronic Cloudpoint Tester and insert the thermocoupleassembly attached to the instrument.16.4 Start the standard cloud point sequence for both theChemotronic I

45、and II machines. For the Chemotronic I, turn onthe “Motor” button (setting should be 5). Press the “Reset”button. (The “sensitivity” setting should be at 5.) Then pressthe “Run” switch to start the test.16.5 For the Chemotronic II, start the standard machineprogram with all default values. Press the

46、 start button, and themachine will run automatically.NOTE 8Resins that have not been tested before may require theoperator to lift the tube right after the instrument establishes a cloud pointvalue. A visual inspection will ensure the resin is totally dissolved.16.6 The instrument will print a recor
