摘要:
Vehicles for ink compositions are disclosed. The described ink vehicles include at least one curable component, and optionally include initiating agents, colorants, non-curable components and other additives. Processes for preparing the ink vehicles and ink compositions containing the ink vehicles are also described.
摘要:
Disclosed is a phase change black ink composition comprising (1) a low polarity ink carrier comprising (A) an ester-terminated polyamide, (B) a Guerbet alcohol or a Guerbet alcohol mixture including at least one linear alcohol, and (C) a low polarity wax, and (2) a black colorant. The ink carrier can also include a dispersant. The ink is resistant to aggregation and settling of the black colorant when a standby-mode printer temperature for the ink is not more than about the gel temperature of the ink.
摘要:
Disclosed is an ink composition comprising (a) an ink carrier which comprises a monoamide, a tetra-amide, or a mixture thereof; (b) a polyalkylene succinimide; and (c) pigment particles. Also disclosed is an ink composition comprising (a) an ink carrier, (b) a polyalkylene succinimide, and (c) pigment particles, said ink having a conductivity great than 1×10−8 Siemens per centimeter. Also disclosed is an ink set comprising (1) a first ink comprising (a) an ink carrier, (b) a polyalkylene succinimide, and (c) pigment particles, and (2) a second ink comprising a dye colorant and a second ink carrier, wherein the first ink carrier contains substantially the same components as the second ink carrier.
摘要:
Disclosed is a phase change ink composition comprising (a) a nonpolymeric ester compound ink vehicle having a melting point of at least about 60° C.; (b) a conductivity enhancing agent; (c) a colorant; (d) an optional antioxidant, and (e) an optional UV absorber.
摘要:
An ink that contains a vehicle, a colorant and a sulphonated polyester terminated with acrylic acid groups, methacrylic acid groups, or mixture thereof.
摘要:
Processes are disclosed for fabricating an ink composition which uses a high pressure shearing force to produce a desired reduction and dispersion of pigment particles in a concentrated dispersion. In one disclosed process, an aqueous ink mixture including water, a solvent and a black pigment colorant dispersion is processed by a microfluidizer and filtered to obtain a desired particle size making the ink suitable for ink jet printing applications. In another process, the pigment dispersion is first microfluidized and the water and solvent added to form a mixture which is then filtered. These processes simplify the ink fabrication by eliminating a sonification and centrifugation step required by prior art processes.
摘要:
An ink jet printing process includes jetting an ink composition onto a substrate. The ink composition is an emulsion or suspension of an organic phase in a water phase, the organic phase including at least one of oil and wax.
摘要:
A process for the authentication of documents which comprises generating developed documents in an electophotographic apparatus, or in a laser printer, with an encapsulated toner comprised of a core comprised of polymer, pigment, and an infrared absorbing component, and thereover a polymeric shell; and subjecting the document to an infrared reader whereby the near infrared absorbing component is detected spectroscopically.
摘要:
