Trituration (printing technique)
The mull called a printing technique in which pigments homogeneously be networked, remove air pockets. In machine printing, the printing inks are removed from ink fountains with a roller, rubbed evenly by several rollers and only then applied to the printing plate.
Other use
Occasionally, the technique of graduated color application ( bokashi ) on early Chinese multicolor prints and Japanese woodblock prints , in which this technique was mainly used in the first half of the 19th century, is also referred to as "trituration".
In lithography , too , one speaks of trituration as a painting technique in which the applied chalk is wiped and rubbed in order to achieve a dim effect with soft transitions.
