Solve the thickening problem of winter ink

Low winter temperatures are external factors that make the ink thicker. Under the influence of temperature, the thick change of the ink (primary ink) is a physical phenomenon, but the change is the morphology, not the essence (the basic performance of the ink).

The ink is too thick and the viscosity is large, but it is best not to use thinner or varnish to adjust its consistency. Because when the user needs to mix the ink, the total amount of various additives that the original ink produced by the ink manufacturer can accommodate is limited, beyond the limit amount, even if it can be used, it also weakens the basic performance of the ink, affecting the printing quality. In addition, the viscosity and the consistency of the ink are related. Here it refers to its properties and not to its phenomenon. In practice, this is often the case. The ink has a large consistency, but its viscosity is small and its fluidity is still large. Therefore, inks with large consistency do not necessarily have high viscosity, and inks with large viscosity do not necessarily have large consistency.

The thickening phenomenon of ink caused by temperature can be solved by the following methods:

(1) Put the original ink on the radiator or beside the heating, and let it slowly warm up to its original state.

(2) External heating can be performed using boiling water in emergencies. The specific method is to pour boiling water into the basin, and then put the original barrel (box) ink in water, but to prevent water vapor from immersing, until the water temperature drops to around 27°C. Take it out, open the lid and stir it to use. The temperature of the printing shop is preferably kept at about 27°C.

The ink is also thick at normal temperatures because the consistency of the ink reflects the rheological properties of the ink to some extent. If it is not due to external factors caused by the phenomenon of thickening, can be summarized as the following two reasons: First, due to the strong thixotropy in the original structure of the ink caused by, but after stirring to restore the original state, can still be used; two expired ink or Deterioration inks due to improper storage cannot be used.

Knife blocks are typically made from wood, but with modern designs, a handful of materials are available.

Plastic knife blocks may use slots or universal designs. While these are affordable, they are not the most durable.

Stainless steel knife blocks are sleek and classy and somewhat more durable than plastic models. They tend to be easier to clean than wood blocks, because steel does not absorb water. However, in some cases, the slots may be plastic or steel - plastic is susceptible to wear, and steel may damage your blades.

Wooden knife blocks may be made from bamboo or other less expensive woods. If you`re hoping for an environmentally friendly design, take note of whether a block is fully bamboo or simply has bamboo veneers and a wood core.
