In the early water storage pens, ink could not flow freely. When the writer presses the piston, the ink begins to flow. After writing for a while, he has to press it again, otherwise the ink will not flow out. Of course it's inconvenient to write like this.
By 1884, wortmann, an employee of an American insurance company, invented a capillary ink supply method, which solved the above problems well. The end of this pen can be disassembled and ink can be injected with a small dropper.
The earliest pen that can absorb ink by itself appeared at the beginning of the 20th century, using a piston to absorb ink. When using a bladder in a pen, insert an iron sheet into the gap to squeeze the bladder to absorb ink. At 1952, there appeared a snooker pen with a tube inserted in the ink to absorb water. The commonly used capillary pen was not invented until 1956.
There are many kinds and models of pens. According to the composition of the nib, it can be divided into gold pen and iridium pen.
⑴ Gold pen: The nib is made of gold alloy, which is soft, elastic and comfortable. However, the gold pen is expensive, the nib is soft and difficult to master, so it is not suitable for beginners.
⑵ Iridium pen: The tip of the pen does not contain gold, and some tips are plated with gold. The pen tip is hard, but it is cheap, so it is a tool suitable for beginners to write.
Although the price varies greatly, the iridium particles in the nib are all special alloys "iridium, ruthenium"! The reason why the smoothness is so different is that the polishing method and fineness are different. So in a sense, the gold pen and the iridium pen are the same. But the material and feel are different, which leads to the price gap!
