Abstract:
An ink composition comprises at least a coloring agent coated with a water-insoluble polymer and resin particles. The water-insoluble polymer is a polymer obtained by a solution polymerization process using at least a polymerizable unsaturated monomer and a polymerization initiator. The coloring agent coated with the water-insoluble polymer is a coloring material obtained by a phase inversion emulsification process in which, after the water-insoluble polymer is dissolved in an organic solvent, at least the coloring agent and water are added thereto, followed by mixing. The organic solvent is removed to perform dispersion in an aqueous system. The resin particles are a polymer obtained by an emulsion polymerization process using at least a crosslinking agent. The average particle size of the resin particles is from 20 to 80 nm.

Abstract:
There is provided an ultraviolet-curable ink jet composition, which is stored in an storage body, including a pigment; a pigment dispersant; a polymerizable compound; and a photopolymerization initiator, in which water content is 0.05 mass % to 1.0 mass % based on the total amount of the ultraviolet-curable ink jet composition, and in which both the acid value and the amine value of the pigment dispersant are 50 mgKOH/g or less, and at least one of the acid value and the amine value thereof is 10 mgKOH/g or more.
Abstract:
In a recording method, a first ink composition containing a colorant, a photopolymerizable compound, and a photopolymerization initiator is ejected from a recording head onto a recording medium; light is emitted from a light source to the first ink composition that has adhered to the recording medium with the result that the first ink composition is cured at a cure rate that is in the range from 70 to 95%; a second ink composition containing a colorant, a photopolymerizable compound, and a photopolymerization initiator is ejected from a recording head to the first ink composition that has been cured on the recording medium; and light is emitted from a light source to the second ink composition.
Abstract:
An ink set includes a reaction liquid containing coagulant; a first ink containing a color material; and a second ink containing a color material. The ink set is used for recording on a non-absorptive recording medium or a low-absorptive recording medium and for imparting the reaction liquid, the first ink, and the second ink to the recording medium in a superimposed manner in this order.

Abstract:
A fiber body forming method includes a step of preparing a web which contains fibers and which has a bulk density of 0.09 g/cm3 or more; and a step of applying a liquid containing a binder which binds the fibers together to the web.
Abstract:
A fibrous body manufacturing apparatus for manufacturing a fibrous body includes an accumulating section that accumulates a sheet-shaped fibrous material containing a plurality of fibers, a droplet discharging section that discharges, as droplets, a binding material that binds the fibers of the accumulated fibrous material to each other, and a control section which segments a region in which the liquid is dischargeable onto the fibrous material into a plurality of segments, generates discharge data in which discharge information on the liquid is set for every one of the plurality of segments, and causes the liquid to be discharged from the droplet discharging section toward the fibrous material based on the discharge data.
