摘要:
Disclosed are pigment particles prepared by a process which comprises (a) preparing a solution of a polyalkylene oxide compound in water; (b) preparing a solution of a cationic dye in water; (c) admixing the solution containing the polyalkylene oxide compound with the solution containing the cationic dye to form a mixture; (d) adding to the mixture a solution containing a heteropolyacid in water, an alcohol, or a mixture thereof, thereby resulting in formation of pigment particles having an average particle diameter of no more than about 300 nanometers; and (e) after addition of the heteropolyacid to the mixture, neutralizing the mixture by addition of a base. Another embodiment of the present invention is directed to an ink composition comprising water and the aforementioned pigment particles.
摘要:
Disclosed is an ink composition which comprises water, an acid dye, a monovalent salt, a polyquaternary amine compound, and an optional nonionic or cationic surfactant, said ink being substantially free of organic solvents. The ink is particularly suitable for applications such as ink jet printing and marking pens. The disclosed inks in some embodiments are substantially indelible. Also disclosed is a composition for removing the ink compositions from substrates to which they have been applied which comprises water and a dianionic surfactant, optionally further containing a salt, urea, and/or a viscosity building agent such as a gum.
摘要:
A toner having charge control agents which impart excellent triboelectric charging characteristics. In embodiments, the toner particles are made by a process in which charge control agent is added and adhered to the particle surface through washing steps and is maintained through the drying steps. The process of the present embodiments impart desirable charging characteristics to the toner particles.
摘要:
A toner is described containing low melt wax and having a core and shell, which toner exhibits improved fusing performance as compared to a toner produced with a high melt wax in the core; having a core resin with a Tg equal to or lower than that of the shell resin; or both.
摘要:
The present disclosure provides toners and methods for their production. In embodiments, the amount of coagulant utilized in producing those toners may be less than amounts currently in use, which may have a beneficial effect by reducing the time for coalescence. Modified waxes may also be utilized which provide excellent gloss and charging characteristics.
摘要:
Single component toners are provided with at least one surface additive including a large polymeric spacer, and processes for producing the same. In embodiments, the toner is a non-magnetic single component toner produced by emulsion aggregation methods. The large polymeric spacer additives provide excellent flow characteristics to the resulting toners, and reduce the incidence of clogging failure and print defects such as ghosting, white bands, and low toner density compared with conventionally produced toners.
摘要:
A toner for developing electrostatic images including emulsion aggregation toner particles with a styrene acrylate latex resin, at least one additive, at least one colorant, and a charge control agent comprising 3,5 di-tert-butylsalicyclic acid zinc salt.
摘要:
A process for preparing a latex includes polymerizing at least one monomer in the presence of an initiator to form a polymer emulsion; and adding an odor-scavenging bismuth compound to the formed polymer emulsion.
摘要:
A method of forming toner particles having surface particles attached thereto includes the steps of aggregating a material of at least one binder material and at least one colorant to produce toner particles, following aggregation, forming a mixture of the surface particles and the toner particles, and subjecting the mixture to a temperature above the glass transition temperature of the toner particles to coalesce the toner particles, whereby the surface particles become at least partially embedded within the surface of the toner particles. Toner particles prepared by such method include a core comprised of at least one binder and at least one colorant, and surface particles at an external surface of the toner particles, wherein at least about 50% of the surface particles are substantially completely covered by a portion of binder and a majority of the surface particles protrude from the toner particle surface a distance of at least 50% of the average particle size of the surface particles.
