ASTM D8020-2015 (2020) is a standard test method for evaluating the viscosity stability of water-based inks and ink carriers. This standard specifies a test procedure for the effect of the freeze-thaw cycle on water-based ink performance. A similar standard test method based on Coating, D2243. Water-based inks or ink carriers are placed in plastic cans, one group is stored at room temperature, and the other group undergoes a freeze-thaw cycle, and subsequent changes in viscosity and uniformity are measured. This method is suitable for assessing the freezing-thaw damage that Water-based inks may suffer during cold-weather transportation, helping to ensure the Stability of inks under extreme conditions.
