Briefly described, embodiments of this disclosure include ink formulation and encapsulated pigments. One exemplary ink formulation includes an aqueous vehicle; a pigment dispersed throughout the aqueous vehicle, the pigment having styrene-acrylic copolymeric resins encapsulating the pigment; and at least one styrene-acrylic copolymeric binder dispersed throughout the aqueous vehicle.
摘要:
The present invention is draw to the use of post calendaring of ink-jet produced images on offset media to improve smudge resistance and image quality. More specifically, a system for printing durable ink-jet ink images can comprise offset media; an ink-jet ink; and a calendaring device. The ink-jet ink can include a pigment colorant, and can be configured to be printed on the offset media. The calendaring device can be configured for applying pressure to offset media once the ink-jet ink is printed thereon. A method is also provide that comprises steps of ink-jetting an ink-jet ink onto offset media to form a printed image, wherein the ink-jet ink includes a pigment colorant; and applying pressure to the printed image such that a physical property of the printed image is altered by the pressure.
