ink adhesion standard
ink adhesion standard
(OP)
I need to clean up/add some specifications on molded parts that get printed either via pad printing or silk screening. Is ASTM F1842-02 the best standard to reference in my specification or is there some other standard that people have found to be better? I'm located in the US.

or maybe ISO 2409:2007
RE: ink adhesion standard
I don't have access to any of these standards at the moment and am looking to purchase the most relevant. I first found D3359, but this quote on the ASTM website made me think F1842 would be better:
Have you found D3359 to be more relevant?
RE: ink adhesion standard
IPC TM-650 2.4.1 Adhesion, Tape Testing on printed circuit boards
ASTM F1842-97 for plastic substrate
ASTM D3359-97 for metallic substrate
ASTM F2252-03 Flexible packaging materials
MIL-P-55110 for printed circuit boards.
Looks like F1842 is your best bet
