Scope

1.1 This test method describes the procedure for determining the fineness of grind of printing inks using a NPIRI grindometer. It evaluates the size of the largest particles in a finished dispersion but not average particle size or concentration of sizes.

1.2 This test method is applicable to any dispersion that is fine enough to fall within the 0-25 μm range of the specified grind gage. With a minor variation in procedure, it is applicable to both paste (nonvolatile) and liquid (volatile) inks.

Note 1—The 0-25 μm gage specified in this test method is similar in principle to the 0-100 μm Hegman gage described in Test Method D 1210. Sieve analysis for concentration of particles above 45 μm is covered in Test Method D 2067.
