Misting of printing inks

Abstract

The initial objective of NAPIM's misting project at Lehigh University is to develop a viable standard test method for evaluating the misting tendencies of printing inks. An ensuing objective will be to identify the ink characteristics responsible for misting. Development of such information is expected to uncover approaches for minimizing misting problems.
