Description
Test ink blue arcotest® 35 mN/m is a specialised blue surface-tension test fluid supplied with a brush for controlled application on solid substrates. Standardised at 35 mN/m, it supports rapid evaluation of surface wetting behaviour in quality control, coating preparation and adhesion-related checks on plastics, films and treated materials. After a thin film is applied, continuity or break-up of the ink line provides a clear visual indication of whether the surface reaches the target wetting-tension level. Physical characteristics include a density of approximately 1 g/cm³, a flash point of 40 °C and a boiling point of 135,6 °C; the preparation is assigned UN number 1993. The practical 10 ml pack size suits bench-top and production-line use. This arcotest® grade from manufacturer Arcotest offers a convenient reference fluid for routine surface-energy screening prior to printing, bonding or coating steps, helping laboratories and manufacturing teams maintain consistent substrate preparation assessments without complex instrumentation.
This article is part of Test inks & surface tension, in Test kits & water analysis.

Questions about Test ink blue arcotest® 35 mN/m, with brush, 10 ml
What is this article?
Test ink blue arcotest® 35 mN/m, with brush, 10 ml is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Arcotest for laboratory use. It sits in Test inks & surface tension, inside Test kits & water analysis, in Lab chemicals.
A test ink checks the surface energy of a solid: the ink either wets the surface or crawls back. The stated dyne value is the product. It is a surface-treatment check, used on plastics and films, not an assay of a liquid concentration.
A test kit turns a chemical question into a colour, a titre or a reading on a strip, so the operator does not have to assemble the method from separate reagents. A cuvette test is a ready optical cell. A strip is a field reading. The range printed on the kit is the range where the answer means something. Outside it, the kit is silent or wrong. The substances inside are on PubChem. Water measurement traces to NIST.
Which category should I open next?
