Nonblot

Nonblot is a term that does not have a single, universally recognized definition. In general usage, it may describe materials or processes that minimize blotting—where ink or pigment spreads beyond intended boundaries on a surface—as well as product names or branding. Because there is no standard definition, the meaning of nonblot can vary by field and context.

In printing and writing contexts, nonblot is often linked to inks or papers designed to reduce blotting and feathering, yielding crisper lines and less bleed. This can involve ink formulation, surface coatings on paper, or printing techniques that limit diffusion of liquids.

In consumer markets, nonblot may appear as a descriptor for cosmetics, pens, or papers that resist transfer, smudging, or visibility of oils. It can also function as a brand name or product line. Given the lack of standardization, claims should be evaluated through official specifications and independent testing where available.

Related concepts include blotting, bleed, feathering, ink chemistry, and paper surface properties. The term is most meaningful when defined in a specific technical or product context.
