Measuring ink penetration is one of the best ways to know paper printability. Ink penetration was effected by physical properties of newsprint paper. This study was carried out for the purpose of improvement printability with ink penetration of domestic newsprint paper. The samples were prepared by means of 20 newsprint paper manufacture company in Korea, and were tested by IGT printability tester. The results of this experiments showed that the depth of ink penetration according to the printing pressure. The maximum points in ink transfer curve and the coefficients of oil absorption of the papers also depend mainly upon the situation of anchor points.

Measuring ink penetration is one of the best ways to know paper printability. Ink penetration was effected by physical properties of newspapers. This study was carried out for the purpose of improvement printability with ink penetration of Korean newspapers. The samples were prepared by means of 7 Newspaper manufacture company in Korea, and were tested by IGT printability tester. The results of this experiments showed that the rate of ink penetration, roughness and porosity are proportioned. While, ink penetration, paper formation, ash content and smoothness of paper are in inverse proportioned.

The computer simulation is presented of gravure ink transferring behavior and penetration to the paper when an gravure roller is used to transfer a printing ink onto a substrate. The three dimensional unsteady ink motion is simulated by Polyflow package software and experimented by IGT gravure printing test machine. The simulation is performed where the flow domain is bounded above by a stress free surface and bounded below by a moving substrate. Specific predictions are made for particular pattern of cells and substrates. Cell size and ink rheological properties are found to be the principal determination of transferring behavior. Simulation is currently restricted to the flow domain beneath the receding meniscus. Both Newtonian and shear thinning inks are considered.

This study was conducted to evaluate the sealing ability of McSpadden technique compared with lateral condensation and Engine reamer technique, and according to the degree of canal enlargement and the use and nonuse of sealer. Seventy single-rooted teeth were divided into 14 groups and each tooth was enlarged and obturated according to the purpose of this study. Obturated teeth were infiltrated by Indian ink and decalcified and cleared. The apical sealing ability was evaluated by measuring the degree of ink penetration into the canal. The results were as follows: 1. All the teeth filled by lateral condensation using gutta-percha cone and sealer proved better in canal sealing ability than McSpadden technique and Engine reamer technique, showing less ink penetration. 2. In the McSpadden technique, there was less ink penetration detected in using the sealer than not. 3. In all of the experimental methods, the difference of the degree of ink penetration according the degree of canal enlargement could not be accepted. 4. There was no significant difference in ink penetration degree between Engine reamer technique using sealer and McSpadden technique without sealer.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of canal filling methods and post-space preparation time on the apical seal of endodontically treated teeth. Seventy-six single-rooted human teeth were divided into 6 groups and each tooth was obturated and prepared post-space according to the purpose of this study. After all specimens were immersed in Indian ink, decalcified and cleared, the degree of dye penetration into the root canals observed by magnifying glass (X20) and measured by caliper. The results were as follows: 1. In the thermatic condensation, no significant difference in ink penetration occured when the post-spaces were created immediately after obturation or when they were made a week later. 2. In the lateral condensation, no significant difference in ink penetration existed between teeth whose post-space were prepared immediately or delayed. 3. In comparison of experimental groups and control groups, no significant difference showed when the groups were obturated with McSpadden compactor but when the teeth were laterally condensed, the experimental groups showed less ink penetration than controls. 4. Thermatic condensed teeth with McSpadden compactor were less ink penetration thn laterally condensed teeth.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate and compare the sealing ability of ZOE, FR and AH-26. Seventy two upper and lower anterior and premolor teeth were randomly selected and instrumented in a conventional method with K-file. After instrumentation and dry the canal, the teeth were divided into 3 groups and twenty four teeth in each group were filled with ZOE, FR, and AH-26 respectively. All the specimens were immersed into Indian Ink and decalcified in nitric acid and cleared in methyl salicylate. The apical leakage was evaluated by measuring the degree of ink penetration with caliper at the intervals of 1 day, 7 days and 14 days. The results were as follows; 1. In AH-26 and FR groups, there was increase in penetration related to increased time of immersion in the ink. 2. FR group showed the least penetration in 3 groups. 3. Statistics showed that there was no significant difference among the each sealer groups.

This paper was performed to investigate the effect of pore structure on ink residual behavior. To prepare different coating structures as substrates against inks, fine, medium and coarse calcium carbonate were used in the coating color. It is well known ink properties can affect to print qualities. After printing on the coated paper, ink layer can consider as third structure addition to paper and coating layer. To compare effect of ink properties on the surface structure and print qualities, several properties of ink were also adopted as raw material. Particle size of pigment effect on gloss evaluation of coated paper increased with calendering. It was shown that ink transfer rate increased as surface of the sample was smooth. The ink contained low viscosity resin evaluated more print gloss. Finer pigment particle size, smaller pore size and higher porosity. Pore volume of coated paper was slightly decreased with printing as the coating was prepared with the finest particle size. However, it founded that ink resin could not affect on pore volume and distribution of printed paper

This paper was made to evaluate the effect of the type of latex for coating on the printability by investigating the structure of pore such as the pore fraction, the number of pores, pore size and distribution of coated paper. The coated structure is mainly depend on the results of interaction between pigment and binder. It means that the structure of pore formed is chiefly affected by the type of latex. This physical properties of pore have a close relation with ink set-off associated with the drying rate, the speed of penetration of ink into base paper and printing gloss. Therefore it was necessary to find out the relationship between pore structure and the performance of printability by modifying the type of latex to vary the pore structure of coated paper. Acrylic latex was superior to S/B latex in the sedimentation volume, compressibility, smoothness, pore fraction and its number, the weight of transferred ink onto the coated paper and ink repellance. In contrast, water retention and ink setting were not good. in the comparison of anionic and amphoteric latex, amphoteric latex showed better performance in the thickness, smoothness, pore fraction and its number, pore size, the weight of ink transmitted and K&N ink receptivity, etc.

Printed mottle of coated paper is one of the most common but the most difficult problem in offset printing. Printed mottle is caused by an uneven penetration of Ink into the paper, binder migration, etc. For a high quality printing, development of new paper coating technologies to prevent print mottle is required. So for, the study of solving printed mottle is coated paper absorption controlled by base paper sizing and coating layer binder migration control. As a results, printed mottle has improved in coated paper. But printing is worked by interaction of printing ink, coated paper and printing pressure, then we need to understand of interaction printing work and coated paper. This research focused on a way of improving printed mottle by investigating various printing conditions such as ink dispersion, nip condition and amount of ink transfer using IGT printability tester.
