Design/methodology/approach A variety of alcohol-resistant thermal transfer inks were...

.../approach First, composite plates were produced by using dried and milled waste sludge together with polyester resin and epoxy. Screen printing using water, solvent and UV-based inks were carried out. Findings It was determined that UV and solvent-based inks in both resin groups were permanently...

... the inks and pigments that were used in some samples. Additionally, Fourier transform infrared microscopy was used to identify the binding medium. Findings The results confirmed that carbon ink, ultramarine, cinnabar and gold pigments were applied to some manuscripts with Arabic gum. As for ESEM...

..., morphology and thermal properties were also tested for assessing its stability which could be helpful to prepare inks with good stability. Findings – The particle sizes of dye pastes with dispersing agent NNO, MF and CNF were 161.1, 150.0 and 136.0 nm, respectively, after grinding for 6 h. The dye...

... and compared with those of a standard gilsonite varnish. Concludes that treatment of acid sludge with different salt formulations provides a potentially lowest cost source of gilsonite varnish for news ink and also helps reduce an environmental problem created by re‐refining used oil. From the above...
