FAQ By Mr. Yusuf Mansoor Part - 5


Q: why same ink behave differently in different Pens,
A: there are several things which can affect the ink flow.
1. All makers who produce pen and ink both, make adjustment according to their feed system for better flow hence same pen and inks (sheaffer pen & ink or MB pen & ink) are better compatible..
2. Quality of lubricant in the ink can hamper flow resulting in poor or dry flow.
3. Dye and ink base ratio can also affect flow, for example adding distilled water in dry ink can enhance flow.
4. Paper quality behaves differently for different composition of ink. A less soaking paper serves better for water based ink.
5. Moisture content of paper also greatly affects the flow and/or control the paper behavior, for example with high humidity papers behave like bloating paper.
Over all more than ink it's the pen component which controls the ink flow hence same ink behaves differently in different pens.
