An ink that may be used in ink jet devices is a photochromic ink comprising an ink vehicle that includes at least one radiation curable component, at least one photochromic material and at least one photoinitiator. The ink is cured via exposure to radiation that cures the at least one radiation curable component of the ink. A radiation curable ink capable of exhibiting photochromatic color changes, which may be used to indicate a document's authenticity, is thus achieved.

Radiation curable phase change ink comprising an ink vehicle that includes at least one curable carrier, at least one gellant, at least one curable wax and at least one photoinitiator. In a method of forming an image with the ink, the radiation curable phase change ink is melted, then jetted onto an image receiving substrate, wherein the radiation curable phase change ink forms a gel state, and exposed to ultraviolet light to cure the curable components of the radiation curable phase change ink. The wax cures into the structure of the ink, thereby generating a robust image of excellent gloss.

摘要:
An ink jet ink includes an ink vehicle, wherein the ink vehicle includes at least one wax monomer functionalized to include in the chain at least one reactive group curable upon exposure to radiation. The reactive group is preferably curable via cationic or free radical polymerization. In a preferred embodiment, the ink vehicle includes a wax monomer having a structure: wherein C represents a cationically curable group and R represents a radically curable group. The inks may be used to form an image by jetting the ink onto a transfuse member surface, increasing the viscosity of the ink upon the transfuse member surface, subsequently transferring the ink from the transfuse member surface to an image receiving substrate, and exposing the ink to radiation following the transfer to the image receiving substrate to effect reaction of the at least one reactive group.

Disclosed is a process for preparing a compound of the formula wherein R1 is an alkyl group having at least one ethylenic unsaturation, an arylalkyl group having at least one ethylenic unsaturation, or an alkylaryl group having at least one ethylenic unsaturation, R2 and R3 each, independently of the others, are alkylene groups, arylene groups, arylalkylene groups, or alkylarylene groups, R4 and R5 each, independently of the other, is a hydrogen atom or an alkyl group, and n is an integer representing the number of repeat amide units and is at least 1, said process comprising: (a) reacting a diacid of the formula HOOC—R2—COOH with a diamine of the formula in the presence of a catalyst, a solvent, and a coupling agent to form an oligoamide intermediate; and (b) reacting the oligoamide intermediate with an alcohol of the formula R1—OH to form the product.
