Heat Stability
Determination of heat stability is determination of temperature. In °C at which the discoloration corresponds to the color difference. dE - 3.0 units. For Printing Inks - tested in long oil alkyde resin system for 30 min.
It is however advisable for a user to carry out heat stability tests in intended application under given set of processing conditions.
Fastness to Bleed (Plastics)
Fastness to bleed or migration resistance is the extent of bleeding into wrapper/rupper/white polythene sheet at 30°C for 24 hours. Migration resistance is reported on 1-5 scale (1-poor, 5-excellent).
Fastness to Solvents and Chemicals
The test is carried out by placing 0.5gms of pigment in a folded paper, sealed at the top and suspended in 20 cc of solvent in a stopper test tube at the room temperature for 24 hours. The staining is noted and expressed in 1 to 5 scales. 5 = excellent, 4 = very good, 3 = good, 2 = fair, 1 = poor.
Solvent mixture generally contains 30% ethyl acetate, 10% acetone, 20% xylene, 30% ethanol, 10% 1- methoxypropanol. The staining of test solvent is assessed visually in comparison to that of the product standard for controlling quality and against absolute solvents for reporting solvent fastness of individual pigments in accordance with grayscale for assessing the extent of bleeding. (DIN 54002).
