on的词性疑问

牛津高阶对调色板palette的解释：a thin board with a hole in it for the thumb to go through, used by an artist for mixing colours on when painting

这里加粗的on是作什么词性理解呢，是直接作为副词，还是作为介词的同时拿a thin board作它的逻辑宾语？像这种语法现象的正式名称是什么？

感谢！

A palette is a thin board (which is) used by an artist for mixing colours on when painting. 介词短语 for mixing colours on 是used的目的状语。《剑桥英语语法》指出，当动名词短语作表示目的意义的for的宾语时，该动名词短语允许为悬空动名词（hollow gerund），即如果句子主语为动名词或动名词短语中的介词的逻辑短语时，动名词或介词的宾语则不再出现，形成一个缺少名词性成分的动名词短语。该成分可通过句子的主语而获知。本句中动名词短语中介词on的宾语缺失，你可以理解介词on的宾语为used的逻辑主语which或which指代的 a thin board.

又如：This knife isn't very good for cutting meat with.

for表示目的意义。cutting meat with为hollow gerund, 句子主语this knife为介词with的逻辑宾语。

a thin board with a hole in it for the thumb to go through, used by an artist for mixing colours on when painting，on的宾语是 board，used by an artist for mixing colours on when painting是个定语，只是省略了that，补充完整为a thin board is one board on which an artist can mix colours.
