摘要:
An ink-jet ink printing method and associated system can have a printer including an ink-jet ink. The ink includes an aqueous liquid vehicle, 1 wt % to 5 wt % pigment, 1 wt % to 5 wt % acrylic polymer particles, 0.3 wt % to 3 wt % urethane polymer particles, and is formulated to print on a vinyl medium. The system also includes a heating device. Upon applying heat to the ink-jet ink printed on the vinyl medium, the polymer particles in the printed ink fuse, and form a film encapsulating at least a portion of the pigment on the vinyl print medium.

A method for making polymer-encapsulated metallic ink particles is disclosed herein. An ethylene-based polymeric resin powder is formed, and is mixed with a metallic pigment powder to form a powder mixture. The powder mixture is melted to form a metallic polymer melt. A non-polar carrier is added to the metallic polymer melt to form a slurry. The slurry is processed in a microfluidizer.

Emulsion-based thermal inkjet inks include a high boiling point carrier fluid; a colorant; and vesicles comprising a low boiling point expellant fluid, and an ionic surfactant comprising molecules, each having a head with affinity to expellant fluid material and a tail with affinity to carrier fluid, the vesicles having a core defined by the heads of the surfactant molecules, the expellant fluid contained in the core, with the vesicles dispersed in the carrier fluid. A method for preparing the thermal inkjet inks is also disclosed.

The present disclosure provides methods and composition directed towards a single batch latex ink-jet ink. In one embodiment, a method of manufacturing a single batch latex ink-jet ink can comprise emulsifying a pigment and a monomer in a solvent, and polymerizing the monomer with a reaction condition sufficient to encapsulate the pigment and sufficient to form individual latex particulates thereby forming a single batch latex ink-jet ink. The ink can contain less than about 0.5 wt % of latex particulates having a diameter of 50 nm or less, can contain about 1 wt % to about 10 wt % of latex particulates having a diameter of about 100 nm to about 250 nm and can contain about 3 wt % to about 5 wt % of encapsulated pigment.
摘要:
A method of manufacturing a liquid electrophotographic ink includes: mixing a first portion of a carrier fluid and a resin to form a resin mixture; heating the resin mixture until the resin has melted; cooling the resin mixture to form a resin cake, followed by pulverizing the resin cake to form a resin powder; and mix the resin powder with a pigment and a second portion of carrier fluid in a microfluidizer to form a concentrating ink containing composite particles. An alternate method of manufacturing a liquid electrophotographic ink includes: mixing a pigment with a resin powder; and microfluidizing the mixture together with a carrier fluid in a microfluidizer in a number of passes to form a concentrated ink containing composite particles.
