Main Article Content
Abstract
Generally, printing inks are important due to its application in wide fields including printing of books, journals, and newspapers. Furthermore, printing inks are used to provide information about the produced goods. Understanding the rheology and the potential to evaluate the rheological characteristics is necessary for controlling rheology, and control is essential for the production and handling of many materials especially inks. Hence, the aim of this study is mainly a review based on the rheological properties of printing inks, the effect of viscosity on ink, thixotropic and shear-thinning behaviors of ink as well as considering the past works on screen-printing inks for the production of the solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) films.
