The ASTM D7189-12 (2020) standard test method specifies a method for measuring the relative mileage of newsprint inks on newsprint. This method helps producers understand ink consumption and printing mileage by evaluating the efficiency of inks use on newsprint. This test can effectively compare the performance of different newsprint inks, guiding the formulation optimization of inks and the improvement of the production process. Through the measurement of relative mileage, the standard provides the printing industry with a means to quantify inks performance, aiming to improve the economics and printing quality of inks use. The standard is widely used in the press and publication industry, especially in optimizing the production and quality control of news inks.
