RHEOLOGY OF SCREEN PRINTING INK
Rheological studies on printing inks (adhesion type inks) were carried out using various alkyd resin concentrations. Several properties of ink were investigated such as viscosity ,shear rate and shear stress. The effect of time and concentraton of alkyd resin on the viscosity was also studied and discussed at 25 c0 . The percentages of alkyd resin considered were 33, 28 and 23 wt% for time range of 0–35 sec using Rheology international R1:I:M viscometer at different values of speed and spindles size .
