Viscosity Conversion Charts
Q. I am in the gravure/flexo printing industry and we also use the no. 2 and
no. 3 zahn cups. On my researches, a lot of the chemical suppliers specify viscosities
in cps. I need to translate this into seconds zahn cup 2 in order to determine
the proper cylinder specifications to use. Can you help me. Is there available
conversion chart from seconds zahn cup 2 to cps and vice versa? Can you please
e-mail a copy to me.
All of the vendors who sell viscosity cups can give you a conversion chart.
Here are two companies that should be able to assist you: Gardco www.gardco.com
or BYK Gardner www.byk-gardner.com
Best wishes,
