Abstract
The development of new standards for the evaluation of lightfastness testing is necessary because some of the current Blue Wool Standards are of limited availability. A series of water-based printing inks were developed and applied to a carton board substrate. The prints were subjected to lightfastness testing, in accordance with BS EN ISO 105:B02, via an interlaboratory trial. The results of the trial are presented. The printed specimens faded at an appropriate rate for their designated reference number. Such prints may form suitable materials as a replacement for the current Blue Wool Scale, subject to further testing.
