We consider the inviscid limit for the two-dimensional Navier–Stokes equations in the class of integrable and bounded vorticity fields. It is expected that the difference between the Navier–Stokes and Euler velocity fields vanishes in $L^2$ with an order proportional to the square root of the viscosity constant $\nu $. Here, we provide an order $ (\nu /|\log \nu | )^{\frac 12\exp (-Ct)}$ bound, which slightly improves upon earlier results by Chemin.
