Abstract
ABSTRACT A fluorescence dot area meter is an instrument that measures halftone dot sizes on printing plates that contain one or more fluorescent compounds. Currenfly, dot sizes on printing plates are being measured with a reflection densitometer, which provides questionable results. In the proposed instrument, a printing plate is excited by visible light in the blue-green region and the amount of fluorescent emission is measured. This method provides a high signal to noise ratio and freedom from directional effects.
期刊介绍:
This Journal aims to provide an international forum for the prompt publication of articles concerning new concepts and innovative technologies in color, coating science and technology. The PCCC Journal has received the grade of Research Scientific from Ministry of Science, Research and Technology (MSRT) in 2010 based its former published issues. The scope of the PCCC Journal covers a wide range of highly interdisciplinary fields of color science and technology, including: Color Imaging and Image Processing, Color Physics (Color Control and Measurement, Color Imaging and Color Image Processing), Environmental Aspects on Color and Coating Science and Technology, Ink and Printing Science and Technology, Inorganic Pigments and Glazes: synthesis and applications, Novel Technologies in Color and Coating Science and Technology (NanoTechnology, BioTechnology, etc), Organic Colorants and Their applications, Resins and Additives, Surface Coatings & Corrosion (Materials and Applications), Inorganic Coatings and their applications, Outlook, Market and Technology Trend, Standardization.
