Overview of TAPPI T830 Sutherland Ink Rub:
Rationale of TAPPI T830 Sutherland Ink Rub:
This test method is ideal when verifying the durability of ink printing that needs to remain legible throughout the distribution cycle. This is achieved by rubbing a weighted receptor block against the printed substrate for a set number of cycles and inspecting for scuffing or ink transfer. Common examples include comparisons between ink or substrate options and print on multiple types of coated paper.
Key Points:
- Establishes ink comparison used in failure analysis
- Use to identify potential issues and any flaws in ink
- Verifies ink printing is durable enough to sustain throughout the distribution cycle
