Samples were printed with Series R6000, R6000HF and R6200 ribbons. Samples were laminated to aluminum panels and allowed to dwell 24 hours prior to testing. Testing was conducted at room temperature and consisted of 30 minute immersions in the specified test fluid. After immersion, the samples were removed from the test fluid and the printed image rubbed 10 times with a cotton swab saturated with the test fluid. The rating scale below shows the effect to the quality of the print for each sample. |

ToughStripe™ labels (B-483 colors overlaminated with B-634 clear polyester overlaminate) designed for use in cartridge form with the GlobalMark®2 and BMP™ 71 label printers were tested in the following chemical reagents. Samples were allowed to dwell 24 hours at room temperature prior to testing. Dip testing consisted of 5 cycles of 10 minute immersions in the specified chemicals followed by 30 minute recovery periods. Samples were immersed in the chemical reagent for 7 days for the 7 day immersion test. Testing was conducted at room temperature.

Performance properties tested on B-486 printed with alphanumerics, and a 5 mil and 10 mil minimum X dimension barcode using Series R4300 and R6200 ribbons and a BradyPrinter™ THT 300X Thermal Transfer Printer. Printed samples of B-486 were laminated to aluminum before exposure to the indicated environmental condition. Results the same for both ribbons unless noted otherwise.

Samples were printed with R4300 ribbon using a Brady 300X printer, laminated to flat aluminum panels and allowed to dwell 24 hours prior to test. Testing consisted of 5 cycles of 10 minute immersions in the specified chemical followed by 30 minute recovery periods. After the final immersion the flat samples were rubbed 10 times with cotton swabs. Testing was conducted at room temperature.
