It is the smoothest pen currently available on the market. Emulsion Ink provides more ink flow than other inks for fluid luxurious strokes covering a broad area.
Zebra’s Emulsion Ink Technology is the premium in effortless writing performance, providing a superbly smooth writing experience. When they are not using technology and are required to put pen to paper they want their writing experience to be effortless they want the writing instrument to glide across the paper. We recognize that writing smoothness is of great importance to most consumers. Low viscosity inks are generally found in rollerball or gel pens, where as a high viscosity oil-based ink is generally found in ballpoint style pens where dry time is more critical than smoothness.Īs a company rich in ink innovation, Zebra’s Emulsion Ink is a reflection of its continual effort to enhance and evolve what is already quite good. Generally run out of ink more quickly as more ink is flowing through the nib.More likely to “bleed” through the paper due to its absorption into the paper.
More likely to smudge due to longer dry time. Also used in paint, a Stormer viscometer. Viscosities of commercial samples of skim milk, 1 fat milk, 2 fat milk, whole milk, half and half, and whipping cream were measured in a temperature. They tend to write finer lines and more clearly. The efflux time can also be converted to kinematic viscosities (centistokes, cSt) through the conversion equations. It decreases with rising temperature, i.e. The inks usually have a greater range of colors. The viscosity of a fluid is its resistance to flow and is highly influenced by temperature. This can also translate to quicker writing speeds. This permits holding the pen with less stress on the hand, saving energy and improving comfort.
Less pressure needs to be applied to the pen to have it write cleanly. Below is a quick overview of the advantages and disadvantages of using low viscosity inks. The impact of a low viscosity ink is writing smoothness. A thick liquid that does not flow easily has high-viscosity a thin liquid that readily flows has low-viscosity. Viscosity is a measure of a liquid’s ability to resist flow.
