摘要:
The invention provides liquid toner compositions in which the polymeric binder is chemically grown in the form of copolymeric binder particles dispersed in a liquid carrier. The polymeric binder includes one amphipathic copolymer comprising one or more S material portions and one or more D material portions, wherein the D material portion has a Tg greater than about 55null C. The toners as described herein surprisingly provide compositions that are particularly suitable for electrophotographic processes wherein the transfer of the image from the surface of a photoconductor to an intermediate transfer material or directly to a print medium is carried out without film formation on the photoconductor.

The invention provides liquid toner compositions in which the polymeric binder is chemically grown in the form of copolymeric binder particles dispersed in a liquid carrier. The polymeric binder includes one amphipathic copolymer that comprises the residue of a Soluble High TgMonomer. The toners described herein exhibit surprisingly low fusion temperatures, yet are surprisingly resistant to blocking, are non-tacky and are resistant to marring and undesired erasure.
摘要:
A liquid ink composition and a method for producing the same, wherein the liquid ink composition includes a colorant, a charge control agent to regulate electrostatic properties of the colorant, and an organosol to disperse and bind the colorant and the charge control agent. The colorant may be coated with a thermoplastic resin to improve binding with the organosol. By coating the colorant with the thermoplastic resin, the affinity of the colorant for the organosol is facilitated, increasing a size of particles in the liquid ink composition, so that the control of the particles improves the image quality, and micro particles of the carbon black pigment alone do not substantially exist in the printer to prevent printing on a non-image area, thus producing a clear printed image and preventing contamination of other parts in the printer during printing.

Liquid electrographic toners are derived from organosols incorporating amphipathic copolymeric binder particles that include polymerizable, crystallizable compounds chemically incorporated into the dispersed portion of the copolymer. The invention further provides organosols that include amphipathic copolymeric binder particles that include a dispersed (D) portion and a solvated (S) portion, wherein the D portion has a high glass transition temperature, and at least one polymerizable, crystallizable compound is chemically incorporated into the D portion, the S portion, or both the D and S portion of the copolymer. Methods of making and electrographically printing liquid toners derived from these organosols are also described. The invention is particularly suited for preparing liquid toners for electrophotographic printing.

The invention provides liquid toner compositions in which the polymeric binder is chemically grown in the form of copolymeric binder particles dispersed in a liquid carrier. The polymeric binder includes one amphipathic copolymer comprising one or more S material portions and one or more D material portions, wherein the components of the composition comprise sufficient acid and base functionality to provide a three dimensional gel of controlled rigidity which can be reversibly reduced to a fluid state by application of energy. The toners as described herein surprisingly provide compositions that are particularly suitable for electrophotographic processes wherein the transfer of the image from the surface of a photoconductor to an intermediate transfer material or directly to a print medium is carried out without film formation on the photoconductor.

A liquid ink for developing electrophotography images comprises: a) a carrier liquid having a Kauri-Butanol number less than 30; b) a grafted co-polymer comprising a (co)polymeric steric stabilizer covalently bonded to a thermoplastic (co)polymeric core that is insoluble in the carrier liquid, wherein the grafted co-polymer is derived from at least a polymerizable organic compound having at least one acid group or at least one acid group; c) a dispersant having, respectively, at least an amine group or at least one acid group to form an acid-base copolymer-dispersant system or a base-acid copolymer-dispersant system, wherein the mole ratio of the amine group to the acid group is between 0.3 and 1.5 in the base-acid copolymer-dispersant system and the mole ratio of the acid group to the base group in the acid-base copolymer dispersant system is between 0.3 and 1.5; and d) a positive charge director with the acid-base copolymer charge dispersant system and a negative charge director with the base-acid copolymer charge-dispersant system.

The invention provides liquid toner compositions in which the polymeric binder is chemically grown in the form of copolymeric binder particles dispersed in a liquid carrier. The polymeric binder includes one amphipathic copolymer comprising one or more S material portions and one or more D material portions, wherein the S material portion of the copolymer has molecular weight and solubility properties selected to provide a three dimensional gel of controlled rigidity which can be reversibly reduced to a fluid state by application of energy. The toners as described herein surprisingly provide compositions that are particularly suitable for electrophotographic processes wherein the transfer of the image from the surface of a photoconductor to an intermediate transfer material or directly to a print medium is carried out without film formation on the photoconductor.
摘要:
A liquid developer electrophotographic apparatus and method for developing one or more successive color images on a previous color image formed on a latent image retaining body, wherein peeling off the prior color image is prevented by establishing a reversible electrophoretic transfer efficiency of toner particles in the prior toner image to be not greater than 60% in the liquid developer for the successive color image while applying an electrical potential difference between the latent image retaining body and a developing electrode for the successive developing step(s). A resin content of the toner particles forming the previous color image may be selected to achieve the reversible electrophoretic transfer efficiency of 60% or less. Alternatively, or in conjunction with the selected resin content, a heater disposed adjacent to a developing station of the successive color image may be arranged to heat the already developed image or the surface of the latent image retaining body so that the toner particles of the prior developed image has the reversible electrophoretic transfer efficiency of 60% or less.

An electrophotographic liquid developer includes a carrier liquid and toner particles. The toner particles include a colorant and a resin component and are dispersed in the carrier liquid. The resin component includes a polyester resin as a main component.
