摘要:
A coating liquid for forming a transparent topcoat, without requiring a hardening or fixing process that uses heating or UV radiation. The coating liquid imparts light resistance, water resistance, fixation, and glossiness to recordings. Also, a recording method using the coating liquid, and recordings produced thereby. The liquid, which is applied to recorded images, contains at least water, fine polymer particles, and a penetrating agent, preferably a penetrating agent selected acetylene glycol surfactants, acetylene alcohol surfactants, glycol ethers, and 1,2-alkylene glycols. Also, an image recording method for forming an even, transparent coating layer by spraying the coating liquid during an ink jet recording process, as well as recordings produced thereby.

摘要:
Disclosed is a pigment dispersion that can be used for an ink jet printing-use pigment ink that affords stable printing characteristics and has excellent storage stability in an ink jet printer having a head driven at a high frequency and having finer nozzles in order to enhance image quality and raise the speed. Disclosed is also a method for manufacturing this pigment dispersion. This manufacturing method includes a step of surface-treating a self-dispersing type of pigment, in which at least hydrophilic, dispersibility-imparting group is introduced to the pigment surface directly and/or via a polyvalent group, and a step of dispersing the self-dispersing pigment obtained in said surface-treating step in an aqueous medium, wherein the dispersion step is a step in which at least the self-dispersing pigment, a wetting agent, and water are dispersed in the form of a liquid mixture.

An ink for ink jet printing process, comprising at least: a particulate pigment having a sulfur-containing dispersibility-imparting group on the surface thereof; a penetrating agent; a resin emulsion comprising a dispersed particulate resin having a sulfur-containing dispersibility-imparting group on the surface thereof; and water.
摘要:
A method for manufacturing a pigment dispersed liquid, comprising at least: Step A of introducing a hydrophilic dispersibility-imparting group directly and/or via another atomic group to the surface of pigment particles; Step B of dispersing the pigment obtained in Step A in an aqueous medium; and Step C of conducting refining treatment of the dispersed liquid obtained in Step B.
摘要:
The present invention provides an ink jet printer having storage for storing ink, a recording head including a nozzle for ejecting ink, and a passage between the storage and the recording head for conducting the ink. At least one of these components comprising an ink-contacting member that comprises an antioxidant of the following formula (1) of a concentration of 100 ppm or less: Further, an ink jet recording method using the ink jet printer causes such printer to eject droplets of an ink composition and attach the droplets to a recording medium.
