The present invention provides an ink which provides an image with a sufficient image density free from bleeding and unevenness, dries rapidly on paper and can be jetted at a high reliability and a recording method using said ink. A novel ink for ink jet recording comprising water, a coloring material and a water-soluble organic solvent is provided, characterized in that said ink comprises a polymer containing a carboxyl group having an average molecular weight of from 1,000 to 20,000 in the free or salt state in an amount of from 0.1 to 3% by weight, a water-soluble organic compound which normally stays solid and vaporizes in a proportion of not less than 50% by weight at a temperature of from 100.degree. C. to 350.degree. C. in an amount of from 1 to 20% by weight, and a compound represented by the following formula (A):R--O--X.sub.n H (A)wherein R represents a functional group selected from the group consisting of C.sub.4-8 alkyl, alkenyl, alkinyl, phenyl, alkylphenyl, alkenylphenyl and cycloalkyl groups; X represents an oxyethylene or oxypropylene group; and n represents an integer of from 1 to 4 in an amount of from 1 to 20% by weight, and said ink exhibits a surface tension of from 20 to 40 mN/m and a pH value of not less than 7.5. The ink is jetted at an output of from 1 to 70 ng per droplet to effect recording.
摘要:
A power supply apparatus for a fluorescent lamp comprises an inverter circuit for converting AC line power to a high-frequency drive voltage having a square waveform, this high-frequency drive voltage being applied to a fluorescent lamp through an inductor and a capacitor connected in series to form a series-resonance circuit which provides a ballast impedance after ignition of the fluorescent lamp has been achieved. A sufficiently high voltage to ensure reliable ignition of the fluorescent lamp is ensured by a ringing oscillation which is produced across another capacitor, connected across the lamp, when the fluorescent lamp is in the high-impedance state prior to ignition.

Ink receptive particles for receiving ink, including: particles P including hydrophilic polymer particles having a ratio of hydrophilic monomer(s) to the total monomer components thereof of from about 10 mol % to about 90 mol %; and hydrophobic polymer particles, attached to at least a part of a surface of the particles P and having a ratio of hydrophilic monomer(s) to the total monomer components thereof of from about 0 mol % to about 10 mol %.
摘要:
A position information management system in which a portable remote terminal includes a plurality of kinds of positioning means for positioning based on a GPS, positioning based on a portable-telephone or PHS base station, positioning based on a radio marker, and independent positioning based on a direction detector, so that the holder of the portable remote terminal can be navigated anywhere. The holder of the portable remote terminal can know the position of a third party similarly holding such a portable remote terminal, by inquiring of a central system, and he/she can supervise, for example, the action of an old person, a child, or a skier in a skiing area. Further, only the map data of a district which is often used by the holder is stored in the portable remote terminal. In this regard, when the holder is in a district not contained within the retained map data, he/she downloads corresponding map data from the central system and uses the downloaded map data.
