摘要:
A recording ink composition comprises pure water, a water-soluble dye, a polyvalent alcohol, and phosphoric acid. When iron is contained as an impurity in the recording ink composition, the iron and phosphoric acid form a ferric (III) phosphato complex ion represented by �Fe(HP0.sub.4)(H.sub.2 O)!.sup.+. Owing to the formation of the complex ion, the recording ink composition is prevented from discoloration which would be otherwise caused by iron ion. Further, the recording ink composition is prevented from formation and deposition of iron compounds. Therefore, the obtained ink has an excellent color tone, and the ink avoids blocking at a nozzle of a printing head or the like of an ink-jet printer.
摘要:
A fluorescent water base ink for ink-jet recording contains a first fluorescent dye and a second fluorescent dye. The first fluorescent dye has a first ultraviolet absorption wavelength region in an absorption spectrum and a first fluorescence emission wavelength region in a fluorescence spectrum. The second fluorescent dye has a second ultraviolet absorption wavelength region which is different from the first ultraviolet absorption wavelength region in an absorption spectrum and a second fluorescence emission wavelength region in a fluorescence spectrum. The first fluorescent dye further has an absorption wavelength region which is different from the first ultraviolet absorption wavelength region and which overlaps at least a part of the second fluorescence emission wavelength region.
摘要:
A fluorescent water base ink for ink-jet recording includes water, a first fluorescent dye, and a second fluorescent dye. The first fluorescent dye absorbs light in a first absorption wavelength region in an ultraviolet region to emit fluorescence, and the first fluorescent dye absorbs light in a second absorption wavelength region to emit no fluorescence. The second fluorescent dye absorbs light in an absorption wavelength region in the ultraviolet region, which is different from the first absorption wavelength region of the first fluorescent dye, to emit fluorescence. A wavelength region of the fluorescence of the second fluorescent dye is not overlapped with the first absorption wavelength region of the first fluorescent dye, but at least a part of the wavelength region of the fluorescence of the second fluorescent dye is overlapped with the second absorption wavelength region. The fluorescence intensity of the ink is increased.

A fluorescent water base ink for ink-jet recording to be used for an ink-jet printer contains water, a pigment, a compound having primary or secondary amide group, and a fluorescent dye represented by the following formula (1): wherein R1 represents OH or N(R3)R4, R2 represents hydrogen atom or halogen atom, and each of R3 and R4 represents hydrogen atom or alkyl group. A sufficient OD value and a fluorescence value are obtained while securing the vivid color development and the excellent water resistance principally in accordance with the interaction of the fluorescent dye and the compound having the amide group.
摘要:
An ink which is usable with an ink jetting device for jetting the ink through a nozzle so as to effect printing on a recording medium. The ink contains a pigment as a coloring agent, and a non-aqueous solvent as an ink solvent. The pigment is in the form of particles having an average particle size of X .mu.m. The ink is jetted from the ink jetting device at a rate of Y, where Y is the volume (pl) of the ink which is ejected from the nozzle each time the ink jetting device is energized. The above-indicated X and Y satisfy the following formulas: 0.05 .ltoreq.X.ltoreq.0.5, 10.ltoreq.Y.ltoreq.100X+50, and 100X-30.ltoreq.Y.

摘要:
A fluorescent water base ink for ink-jet recording contains a fluorescent dye having a xanthene skeleton, and a glycol. In the fluorescent dye, the difference in hydrophilic index log P is not less than 2.6 between a substituent bonded to C-9 carbon atom of the xanthene skeleton and other portion of the fluorescent dye than the substituent bonded to the C-9 carbon atom. The glycol has a distance between hydroxyl groups substantially equivalent to or longer than an interatomic distance between atoms directly bonded to C-3 and C-6 carbon atoms of the xanthene skeleton of the fluorescent dye, respectively. It is assumed that the glycol is coordinated with the xanthene skeleton in a bridge form to increase the fluorescence intensity by increasing the electron density of the xanthene skeleton. The ink having high fluorescence intensity and in which the fluorescence intensity is not lowered in a time-dependent manner is provided.
