Nearly 75 black and 25 colored inks consisting of 100% vegetable oil‐based vehicles were formulated. The physical properties of these inks met or exceeded the industry standards for lithographic and letterpress newsprint applications. In addition, elimination of petroleum‐based resin and reduced pigment usage, due to the light vehicle color, provided a competitively priced alternative to petroleumbased inks.
