Typemetal mix
Tumblr media
#Typemetal mix manuals
#Typemetal mix manuals
The manuals for the Monotype composition caster (1952 and later editions) mention at least five different alloys to be used for casting, depending the purpose of the type and the work to be done with it.Īlthough in general Monotype cast type characters can be visually identified as having a square nick (as opposed to the round nicks used on foundry type), there is no easy way to identify the alloy aside from an expensive chemical assay in a laboratory.Īpart from this the two Monotype companies in the USA and the UK also made moulds with 'round' nicks. Most mechanical typesetting is divided basically into two different competing technologies: line casting (Linotype and Intertype) and single character casting (Monotype). Typical type metal proportions Eutectic alloy When alloyed with lead, strengthens the alloy and improves casting detail. Improves casting properties by making the molten alloy more fluid.Ĭrystalline appearance, brittle, fusible. Does not produce sharply defined castings. The basic characteristics of these metals are as follows:Įxceptionally soft, malleable and ductile but with little tenacity. Generally speaking, the proportions are somewhere in the order of: lead 50‒86%, antimony 11‒30% and tin 3‒20%. The addition of antimony conferred the much needed improvements in the properties of hardness, wear resistance and especially, the sharpness of reproduction of the type design, given that it has the curious property of diminishing the shrinkage of the alloy upon solidification.Īlthough type metal alloy are basically conformed by the same three metals, the proportions vary according to the intended final use, be it individual character mechanical casting for hand setting, mechanical line casting or individual character mechanical typesetting and stereo plate casting. Both the iron and the sulphides would be rejected in the process. The typefounder would typically introduce powdered stibnite and horseshoe nails into his crucible to melt lead, tin and antimony into type metal. The enormous effort to create an alloy with the characteristics needed in an ideal type metal is often underestimated.Ĭheap, plentifully available as galena and easily workable, lead has many of the ideal characteristics, but on its own it lacks the necessary hardness and does not make castings with sharp details because molten lead shrinks and sags when it cools to a solid.Īfter much experimentation it was found that adding pewterer's tin, obtained from cassiterite, improved the ability of the cast type to withstand the wear and tear of the printing process, making it tougher but not more brittle.ĭespite patiently trying different proportions of both metals, solving the second part of the type metal problem proved very difficult without the addition of yet a third metal, antimony.Īlchemists had shown that when stibnite, an antimony sulphide ore, was heated with scrap iron, metallic antimony was produced. (His other contributions were creation of inks that would adhere to metal type and a method of softening handmade printing paper so that it would take the impression well.) The term type metal (sometimes called "hot metal") represents a range of metal alloys that are used in traditional typefounding and mechanical typesetting.Īlthough the knowledge of casting soft metals in moulds was well established before Gutenberg's time, his discovery of an alloy that was hard, durable, and would take a clear impression from the mould (because it did not shrink as much as lead alone when cooled) represents a fundamental aspect of his solution to the problem of printing with movable type. 4.8 Metals used on typecasting machines.4.2 General requirements for type-metal.Steady-state and time-resolved photoluminescence (PL) experiments reveal that aggregation-caused quenching can indeed be effectively reduced as a result of decreasing the concentration of emissive linkers, thereby leading to significantly enhanced quantum yield and increased lifetime. To address the fluorescence self-quenching issue caused by densely packed linkers in some of the resultant UiO-68 type MOF structures, we apply a mixed-linker strategy by introducing nonfluorescent linkers to diminish the self-quenching effect. Herein, we show that linker engineering is a powerful method for systematically tuning the emission behavior of UiO-68 type metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) to achieve full-color emission, using 2,1,3-benzothiadiazole and its derivative-based dicarboxylic acids as luminescent linkers. However, the methodical control of the LMOF emission properties remains a great challenge. Luminescent metal-organic frameworks (LMOFs) demonstrate strong potential for a broad range of applications due to their tunable compositions and structures.

Gelasio
Gelasio is a serif font designed by Sorkin Type. It’s elegant yet readable, harking back to 19th century newspaper fonts. Some apparent elegance comes from it’s decorative varying line widths and serifs. It was made to compare to Microsoft Georgia and this seems to most that's referenced about it. Georgia was made in 1993 by Mathew Carter for the Microsoft Cooperation. It was meant to be elegant but readable on low resolution monitors. It’s inspired by old newspaper fonts, especially Scotch Roman.

Typography Tuesday
Here are some fancy, schmancy wood-engraved initials from our recent acquisition, Fonderies de caractères et leur matériel dans les Pays-Bas du XVe au XIXe siècle by Charles Enschedé (1855-1919), with specimens from the extensive typographic collection of the venerable 320-year-old printing and typefounding firm Joh. Enschedé en zonen, published in Harlem by De Erven F. Bohn in 1908.This title is one of type historian and designer Jerry Kelly’s recent One Hundred Books Famous in Typography (The Grolier Club, 2022).These highly calligraphic Gothic initials were engraved in wood in 1741 and were from the printing house of Pieter de Vries in Schiedam, Netherlands. Our copy of Fonderies de caractères is from the collection of New York artist Elijah Silverman and bears his signature.

PLEASE elaborate on the printing press thing.
Okay, here goes.
First, type metal. You've got your metal pieces, with your letters and whatnot to be printed on their surface, raised and mirror-reversed, which gets inked and pressed to the paper, yes? And these were made by carving your letters, or your illustrations, or whatever, into a material that forms the end of a mold in which said metal is cast. Casting metal with molds was a fairly well-known technology in Europe at that time — particularly for a goldsmith like Gutenberg.
Now, you want this metal to have several properties:
Forming a sharp and accurate impression of the mold, and its nooks and crannies.
Relatively easy to cast at comparatively low temperatures.
Not too brittle, so it doesn't crack or chip or shatter under the stresses of the press
Not too soft, so it doesn't deform and wear down quickly under the stresses of the press
Not too expensive.
Now, lead was cheap, easy to cast, and not at all brittle. But I don't know if any of you have ever used lead fishing weights, or done any lead casting, but I've done a fair bit of fishing, and my dad used to cast his own fishing weights. And lead is soft. And it doesn't hold sharp edges. And then there's thermal expansion — most materials expand when heated… and thus contract when cooled, particularly from molten to solid. Lead is particularly bad in this regard. From the moment you take the cooled metal from the mold, you'll find a less-than-accurate impression.
Well, people of the day, particularly the pewterers, knew you could toughen up lead, and let it flow more fluidly into the crevices of a mold while molten, if you alloyed it with some tin — which also has an even lower melting point than lead. But this doesn't solve the contraction problem. What does is adding antimony. Now, the sources I've read seem to disagree as to whether or not European alchemists figured out how to isolate antimony from stibnite (antimony sulfide) ore before or after Gutenberg's time; but they agree that early typefounders mostly just added stibnite to the alloy along with some scrap iron (horseshoe nails), causing a reaction between the stibnite and iron, wherein both the iron and the sulfur are rejected from the resulting alloy while the antimony is left behind.
Now, while type metal alloys vary somewhat in their proportions (depending on intended use and which properties take priority), they're generally in the ranges of 54‒86% lead, 3‒18% tin, and 11‒28% antimony.
Second, there's the ink.
Inks are traditionally a pigment or dye in a liquid solution, occasionally with binders. Most early inks used carbon-based black pigment — "lampblack" soot, charcoal, "bone black," graphite, etc. "India ink" — invented in China — consisted mostly of these bound together with animal glue into an "inkstick," which is ground with water on an inkstone to form the ink. Or then there's iron gall ink, mixing iron (ii) sulfate with tannic acid from oak galls into a solution, with gum arabic as an added binder (the soluble ferrous tannate formed penetrates the paper, then darkens and becomes insoluble by oxidizing via exposure to air into a ferric tannate; however, excess tannic acid generally meant that it could slowly eat through the paper over time). Or then there was cephalopod ink — see the origin of the word "sepia."
But what all of these have is that the solvent for the solution is water. And all these water-based inks will generally run right off your metal type. To adhere to the type metal, the inks used by Gutenberg and his successors weren't just thicker than those used with pen or brush, they were oil-based — closer to an oil paint or varnish than a traditional ink. (Hence, why they're applied to, spread across, and smoothed over the type via ink balls and rollers.) And while his inks used carbon soot as their pigment, they also contained high levels of metal, including copper, lead, and titanium (and thus his printed works have text which is actually rather shiny). Later printers mostly converged on a black ink recipe combining walnut oil, turpentine, and soot.
(And while I said earlier it wasn't about the paper, but Gutenberg also figured out how to moisten the paper to allow the type to better "bite" into it.)
So you see, there was a lot more to the printing revolution than just making the mechanical press.
