Cup No. 1: Suitable for very thin liquids
Cup No. 2: Thin oil, mixed paint, varnish
Cup No. 3: Medium viscosity, mixed paint, varnish
Cup No. 4: Thicker fluids and mixtures
Cup No. 5: Especially viscous fluids and mixtures.
Zahn Cup Usage Instructions:
1) The temperature of the liquid to be tested should be 25 degrees Celsius, and during the test, temperature fluctuations must be minimized and not exceed +/-0.2 degrees Celsius. Adjust the temperature of the liquid to be tested if necessary.
2) Select a viscosity cup with the appropriate aperture size. Immerse the viscosity cup into the liquid to be tested, ensuring the cup body is fully submerged.
3) Measure and record the temperature of the liquid inside the viscosity cup using a thermometer.
4) Remove the thermometer.
5) Hold the ring on the handle with your index finger to keep the viscosity cup vertical. Quickly and steadily lift the viscosity cup; start the stopwatch as soon as the cup leaves the liquid surface. During the outflow, the height of the viscosity cup must not exceed 15 centimeters above the liquid surface.
6) Stop timing when the flow stream is observed to break for the first definite time.

What is the main function of ink thinner?
Adjust viscosity: Ink thinner can reduce the viscosity of the ink, making it easier to apply and print. Improve printability: By adjusting the flow of the ink, ink thinner can enhance the printing performance of the ink, making it more suitable for different printing processes.

Types and Performance Characteristics of Thinners
1. Mineral oil-based diluents: They have good solubility and volatility, suitable for most inks. However, their high volatility may cause the printed material to dry too quickly, affecting the printing quality.
