Title
Standard Test Method for Volatile Content of Sheet-Fed and Coldset Web Offset Printing Inks
ASTM International
Publication Date:
Nov 10, 2000
Scope:
This test method describes a procedure for determination of the weight
percent volatile content of
sheet-fed and coldset web offset printing inks. Test specimens are
heated at 110° ±
1°C for 60 min.
NOTE 1 - Coldset web offset printing is often (also) referred to as
non-heatset web offset
printing.
This test method is also applicable to sheet-fed and coldset web
offset printing ink vehicles.
NOTE 2 - Vehicle is the liquid portion of the printing ink. Any
substance that is dissolved in the
liquid portion of the ink is a part of the vehicle.
This test method is not applicable to ultra-violet (UV) or electron
beam cured materials, which
must be cured by exposure to UV light or an electron beam as part of
the test for volatile content.
This test method is based on Test Method D 2369, in which the
allowable ranges are ±0.1g for
specimen weight and ±5°C for oven temperature.
Interlaboratory studies have shown that
specimen weight and oven temperature must both be more tightly
controlled in order to improve the
precision of test results for sheet-fed and coldset web-offset inks.
Such inks typically contain a
wide range of high-boiling hydrocarbons and often have a volatile
content below 25 %.
The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the standard. The
values given in parentheses
are for information only.
This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns,
if any, associated with its
use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to
establish appropriate safety and
health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory
limitations prior to use. For a
specific hazard statement see 7.5.1.
