1、Designation: D 5958 99 (Reapproved 2005)e1Standard Practices forPreparation of Oil-Based Ink Resin Solutions1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 5958; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of la

2、st revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.e1NOTEFootnote 5 was editorially corrected in September 2005.1. Scope1.1 These practices describe laboratory procedures for pre-par

3、ing an oil-based ink resin solution in a high-boiling solventusing four pieces of lab equipment; (1) a hot oil bath (Sections4 to 11),(2) a stirrer/hot plate (Sections 12 to 16),(3) an industrial blender (Sections 17 to 22), and(4) a hot air gun (Sections 23 to 27).ASTM Subcommittee D01.37 recommend

4、s using the hot oilbath procedure (Practice D 5597) where possible.1.2 These practices use laboratory equipment generallyavailable in a normal, well-equipped laboratory.1.3 One or several of these practices allows for rapid resinsolution preparation (under 30 min, typical), can regulate themaximum t

5、emperature, can be done under an inert atmosphere,and can prevent the random solvent loss during preparation.1.4 These procedures are for use with ink resins intendedmainly for oil-based offset and letterpress inks. The type ofresins are typically, but not limited to C9aromatic hydrocarbonresins, mo

6、dified dicyclopentadiene resins, rosin pentaerythritolor glycerine esters, phenolic modified rosin esters, maleicanhydride modified rosin esters, and naturally occurring resinssuch as gilsonite.1.5 The typical high boiling solvents to be used include C12to C16petroleum distillates, 2,2,4 trimethyl 1

7、,3-pentanedioldi-isobutyrate,2alkali refined linseed oil, tridecyl alcohol, orcombinations of the above.1.6 To avoid fire or injury, or both, to the operator, thesepractices should not be used with low flash point solvents suchas toluene or xylene. The minimum flash point of the solventsused should

8、be 60C (140F) as determined by Test MethodD56.(WarningUsers of this practice should be aware thatthe flash point of many solvents used for this test (as defined inTest Methods D 56 and D 1310) is exceeded in the heatingcycle of this test method. Take safety precautions since there isthe potential fo

9、r vapor ignition. Do the methods outlined in ashielded exhaust hood, where there is access to a fire extin-guisher 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

10、 of thesafety concerns, if 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.

Summary of Hot Oil Bath Practice4.1 Place the required amount of resin and solvent in a250-mL E

20、rlenmeyer flask.4.2 A hot oil bath is heated to the required dissolutiontemperature (150 to 200C, typically about 180C or slightlyhigher for high softening point or poorly solvated resins).4.3 The Erlenmeyer flask containing the mixture of resinand solvent is placed into the hot oil bath with inert

Summary of Stirrer/Hot Plate Practice12.1

39、 Small samples of ink resin and aliphatic ink oil or inkresin and alkali-refined linseed oil (ARLO) are cut intodispersion in an Erlenmeyer flask to a specific temperature, ata specified rate, with stirring.12.2 The resulting fluid dispersion can be used to measureparameters such as viscosity and al

40、iphatic solubility or com-patibility of a printing ink resin.13. Apparatus13.1 Erlenmeyer Flask, 125-mL, fitting the following de-scription: a height of 114 mL, an outside base diameter of 67mL, and an opening of 27 mL.13.2 Magnetic Stirring Bar, polytetrafluoroethylene-coated,and 25 mm in length.13

41、.3 Thermometer, No. 42C, conforming to SpecificationE1, or other accurate temperature measuring device capable ofmeasuring to 220C or greater, in 1C increments.13.4 Cork Stopper, high quality, designed to fit the flaskused. This cork is then bored out appropriately to receive thethermometer in 13.3

42、in a snug fashion. The hole should bedrilled at an angle of approximately 25 so the tip of thethermometer comes to rest at the inside edge of the flask. Placea small groove on the side of the cork to prevent pressurebuild-up.13.5 Hot Plate Stirrer, capable of a surface temperature of300C.13.6 Stop W

43、atch.14. Calibration and Standardization14.1 The setting of the hot plate surface temperature mustbe calibrated by making a blank run in the following manner.14.2 Determine the total mass of the intended solutiondescribed in 12.1 (Note: the mass should be between 30 and 45g). Weigh into the 125-mL E

44、rlenmeyer flask a quantity ofARLO equal to the intended solution mass described in 12.2.Next, add the stirring bar and affix the thermometer/corkassembly described in 13.4 to the Erlenmeyer flask.14.3 Turn on the hot plate temperature controller to a settingthat will give a surface temperature of ap

45、proximately 300C.Allow the hot plate 10 min to heat up and equilibrate.14.4 Set the flask on the preheated hot plate stirrer and beginstirring.14.5 Start the stop watch.14.6 Measure the time required for the ARLO to reach atemperature of 215C.14.7 The hot plate surface temperature is correct when th

46、eARLO heats from room temperature to 215C in 11 min 6 15s. On a hot plate, this is usually at a setting between 5 and 6 onthe temperature-controller dial.15. Procedure15.1 Crush large size pieces of resin sample and pass thecrushed resin through a 16-mesh sieve.15.2 Weigh to 60.02 g into the Erlenme

47、yer flask, the inkresin and solvent at the ratio agreed upon between producerand user. Typical resin solutions are noted in 9.3.1. The totalmass of ink resin solids and solvent should be between 30 and45 g.15.3 Carefully place the stirring bar into the flask to avoidsplashing the solvent.NOTE 1It is

48、 not recommended that the stirring bar be added to thetared flask while on an electronic balance. The magnetic field associatedwith the stirring bar can affect weighing accuracies.15.4 Affix the thermometer/cork assembly in the mouth ofthe flask. Adjust the thermometer tip so it is just off the bott

49、omsurface of the flask (1 mm).15.5 Place the flask on the hot plate stirrer that has beenheated 10 min to the calibrated setting derived in Section 14.15.6 Without stirring, let the ink resin-solvent slurry heat to100C.15.7 When the temperature reaches 100C, begin stirringthe mixture. Keep the stir rate slow at first (so that resin isD 5958 99 (2005)e13moving in the solvent but does not splash resin up above thesolvent level). For more efficient dissolution, mixing speed isgradually increased as the resin softens. Avoid over-stirringthat causes
