Disclosed is a process for preparing a compound of the formula wherein R1 is an alkyl group having at least one ethylenic unsaturation, an arylalkyl group having at least one ethylenic unsaturation, or an alkylaryl group having at least one ethylenic unsaturation, R2 and R3 each, independently of the others, are alkylene groups, arylene groups, arylalkylene groups, or alkylarylene groups, and n is an integer representing the number of repeat amide units and is at least 1, said process comprising: (a) reacting a diacid of the formula HOOC—R2—COOH with a diamine of the formula in the absence of a solvent while removing water from the reaction mixture to form an acid-terminated oligoamide intermediate; and (b) reacting the acid-terminated oligoamide intermediate with a monoalcohol of the formula R1—OH in the presence of a coupling agent and a catalyst to form the product.

Curable monomer that is liquid at 25° C., curable wax and colorant together from a radiation curable ink. This ink may be used to form images by providing the radiation curable ink at a first temperature; applying the radiation curable ink to the substrate to form an image, the substrate being at a second temperature, which is below the first temperature; and exposing the radiation curable ink to radiation to cure the ink.

Ink jettable, radiation curable overprint compositions containing at least one radiation curable oligomer/monomer, at least one photoinitiator, and at least one surfactant are disclosed. The overprint compositions are particularly well-suited for protecting ink-based and toner-based images on substrates subjected to abrasives, heat, and/or sunlight since the compositions protect such images from smearing, cracking, and fading.
摘要:
An ink set is made up of at least three differently colored phase change inks, for example cyan, magenta and yellow, wherein at least one of the colored phase change inks is a photochromic ink that contains a photochromic material. Upon exposure to activating radiation such as ultraviolet light, the at least one photochromic ink changes to a color different from the color of the photochromic ink prior to exposure to the activating radiation.

Methods and structures are disclosed to minimize the presence of vapor clouding in the path between an energy (e.g., radiation) source and the dampening fluid layer in a variable data lithography system. Also disclosed are conditions for optimizing vaporization of regions of the dampening fluid layer for a given laser source power. Conditions are also disclosed for minimizing re-condensation of vaporized dampening fluid onto the patterned dampening fluid layer. Accordingly, a reduction in the power required for, and an increase in the reproducibility of, patterning of a dampening fluid layer over a reimageable surface in a variable data lithography system are disclosed.
摘要:
An ink for an ink jet printer includes an ink vehicle of at least one radically curable, multifunctional acrylate monomer or oligomer, at least one colorant, and at least one photoinitiator. The ink has a low viscosity at low jetting temperatures of 30 to 50° C. and is curable upon exposure to ultraviolet radiation.
摘要:
The method of forming an image formed of low viscosity ink on a recording medium comprises ejecting the low viscosity ink from a printer head in the form of droplets onto an intermediate transfer medium to form the image, partially curing the image on the intermediate transfer medium, transferring the partially cured image onto the recording medium, and further curing the partially cured image on the recording medium to create a hardened image.
摘要:
An ink used preferably in jet ink devices includes an ink vehicle, the ink vehicle being made up either (a) a first component curable by a first polymerization route and an associated photointiator, and a second component curable by a second polymerization route and as associated photoinitiator, wherein the second polymerization route is different from the first polymerization route, or (b) a component curable by a single polymerization route with a first and a second photoinitiator system in which the first system responds to longer wavelengths. An image may be formed by such inks by jetting onto a transfer member surface, curing the first component or partially curing the single component while upon the transfer member surface, transferring the ink to an image receiving surface, and completing curing. The first component is preferably curable via cationic polymerization and the second component is preferably curable via free radical polymerization.
