摘要:
Provided herein is an aqueous ink, which is excellent in both image density and fixing ability irrespective of the kind of a recording medium even when the volume of an ink droplet is small and has such excellent properties that white stripes are not caused even when high-speed recording is conducted. The aqueous ink comprises at least water, a water-soluble organic solvent, a water-insoluble coloring material, a surfactant and a poor medium for the water-insoluble coloring material and/or a salt. The dynamic surface tension of the aqueous ink at a lifetime of 50 milliseconds determined by a maximum bubble pressure method is higher than 47 mN/m, and the dynamic surface tension at a lifetime of 5,000 milliseconds determined by the maximum bubble pressure method is 38 mN/m or lower.

In an ink set having a plurality of inks, the ink set has at least a pigment ink and a dye ink. The pigment ink contains at least water, a surfactant, a self-dispersion pigment, and a poor medium for self-dispersion pigment and/or a salt; a dynamic surface tension of the pigment ink at a lifetime of 50 milliseconds is higher than 47 mN/m. The dye ink contains at least water, a surfactant and a dye. An ink set is provided which can obtain images having a high image density and a superior bleeding resistance without regard to the types of recording mediums.

摘要:
In an ink set, which is an ink set (A) obtained by combining a plurality of aqueous inks (a) and used together with an aqueous ink (B) containing a water-insoluble coloring material, respective aqueous inks constituting the ink set (A) contain at least one water-soluble organic solvent serving as a poor solvent for the water-insoluble coloring material contained in the aqueous ink (B), and among the water-soluble organic solvents which are respectively contained in the aqueous ink (a) and serve as a poor solvent, at least one water-soluble organic solvent has a vapor pressure at 20° C. that is lower than the vapor pressure of water at 20° C. The ink set can form a full-color image in which occurrence of bleeding at boundaries between different adjacent color regions of the image has been suppressed.
摘要:
The present invention relates to an aqueous ink, particularly an aqueous ink suitable for ink jet recording. The ink is an aqueous ink comprising a modified pigment having organic groups chemically attached to the surface of a particle of the pigment and an aqueous medium which is a dispersant of the pigment, wherein the above-described organic group includes a reaction product of a functional group chemically attached to the surface of the pigment directly or via another atomic group with a copolymer of an ionic monomer and a hydrophobic monomer.
摘要:
An aqueous ink comprising at least water, a water-soluble organic solvent and a colorant.The colorant comprises a pigment containing a pigment particle having at least one ionic group bonded to a surface of the pigment particle directly or via another atomic group.The organic solvent undergoes completely or substantially no solvation with the pigment and the ionic group of the pigment particle undergoes completely or substantially no ion dissociation in the organic solvent.
