摘要:
Radiation curable compositions, such as UV curable ink compositions, contain a polymeric dispersant, a curable material, that includes a carrier and at least one nanoscale fluorescent pigment particle and an optional non-fluorescent colorant. The fluorescent organic nanoparticle composition includes one or more fluorescent dyes dispersed in a polymeric matrix obtained by modified EA latex process or by emulsion polymerization. In a different embodiment, the nanoscale fluorescent pigment particle composition includes pigment molecules with at least one functional moiety, and a sterically bulky stabilizer compound including at least one functional group, the functional moiety of the pigment associates non-covalently with the functional group of the stabilizer, and the presence of the associated stabilizer limits the extent of particle growth and aggregation, to afford nanoscale-sized pigment particles.

摘要:
The present disclosure provides for the process for preparing a solid inkjet ink using a pigment flush. One process includes applying a first mixing step to a pigment and a flushing agent to flush the pigment from am aqueous phase to a non-aqueous phase to form a pigment dispersion, adding at least one other ink ingredient, and incorporating the other ink ingredient in the pigment dispersion by applying a second mixing step to form a solid inkjet ink. Another process disclosed includes adding at least one ink ingredient directly to a pigment dispersion and mixing by applying a high shear mixer.
摘要:
A method of making a phase change ink composition includes adding to a device with a stirring element at least one pigment, at least one dispersant and at least one synergist, processing the device at an elevated temperature and at a stirring rate to wet the at least one pigment to obtain an ink concentrate, and mixing the ink concentrate with an ink vehicle to obtain the ink composition. The device may be an extruder, an attritor or the like. The method allows for the reduction in the amount of dispersant to include in the ink.
