摘要:
An ink jet printing device including an ink jet print head and a print region surface toward which ink is jetted from the ink jet print head, wherein a height distance between the ink jet print head and the print region surface is adjustable; wherein the ink jet print head jets an ultra-violet curable phase change ink composition comprising an optional colorant and a phase change ink vehicle comprising a radiation curable monomer, or prepolymer; a photoinitiator; a reactive wax; and a gellant; wherein a print deposited upon the print region surface is Braille, raised print, or a combination of regular print and one or both of Braille and raised print.

摘要:
A variety of UV curable phase change inks are disclosed. The inks possess the characteristic the gloss of printed areas closely matches the gloss of unprinted areas of the substrate. On plain papers the printed and unprinted gloss values are within 5 ggu when measured at 60°. On coated papers, the printed and unprinted gloss values are within 25 ggu when measured at 60°. Although not limited by any theory, it is speculated that the gel rheology of inks of the disclosure conforms well with the paper substrate, providing a rougher low gloss surface on plain paper and a smoother high gloss surface on coated paper.

摘要:
A system is disclosed for measuring the crystallization of crystalline-amorphous mixtures. The system includes a sample holder. and a heating apparatus to melt a ink composition and to keep the melted ink composition at a first specified temperature for a first period of time. The system includes a cooling apparatus to receive the melted ink composition, to cool the melted ink composition and to maintain the cooled ink composition at a second specified temperature. The system includes a microscope and a video recording device to capture images of the cooled ink composition for a second period of time A video processing computer includes a memory, a processor and software instructions and the software instructions causes the computer to extract crystallization parameters about the cooled ink composition from the captured images. The crystallization parameters identify fast solidifying crystalline inks that have a short time duration from onset of crystallization until crystallization.
