Description

Be used for the substrate of ink gun, the ink gun and the manufacture method thereof of the described substrate of use
Technical field
The present invention relates to be used for by being discharged to such as the functional liquid of printing ink on the recording medium that comprises paper, plastic sheet, cloth, article etc. and the used substrate of the ink gun of record or printable character, symbol or image; Use the ink gun and the manufacture method thereof of this substrate.
Background technology
A kind of conventional structure that is used for the ink gun of ink mist recording comprises a plurality of outlets, the ink flow passage that links to each other with these outlets and a plurality of electrothermal conversioning element that can produce the heat energy that is used for ink-jet.Described electrothermal conversioning element provides the electrode of electric energy to constitute by giving birth to thermal resistor with the thermal resistor of making a living, and this electrothermal conversioning element scribbles insulation film to guarantee the insulation between each electrothermal conversioning element.Each ink flow passage links to each other with common liquid chamber at its place, end relative with outlet, and described common liquid chamber stores the printing ink of supplying with from the ink box as printing ink storage container parts.The printing ink that supplies to common liquid chamber leads to each ink flow passage so that printing ink forms meniscus near outlet.In this state, electrothermal conversioning element is selectively driven to produce heat energy, and described heat energy is used to cause bubble fast at the lip-deep printing ink of thermo-contact, so that discharge printing ink under by the pressure that described state variation caused.
Between expulsive stage, the heat effect of ink gun part is exposed under the higher temperature by the heating of giving birth to thermal resistor at printing ink, simultaneously, and mainly is subjected to because the immixture of the chemical action of cavitation shock that the bubble of printing ink forms and contraction causes and printing ink.
Therefore, heat effect part has usually and is used to protect electrothermal conversioning element not to be subjected to the upper protective layer of the chemical action of described cavitation shock and printing ink.
Tradition, the Ta film that can stand the chemical action of cavitation shock and printing ink largely is formed to such an extent that have the thickness of 0.2 to 0.5 μ m, thereby can increase the service life of ink gun, obtains reliability simultaneously.
In addition, in described heat effect part, can cause a kind of like this phenomenon; promptly; be included in look material in the printing ink, additive etc. owing to be heated under the high temperature, thereby thereby they on molecular level, decompose to form and be difficult to dissolved substances, described material physically is absorbed on the upper protective layer.This phenomenon is known as fouling (kogation).Organic and the inorganic substances that are difficult to dissolve are absorbed in by this way and can cause on the upper protective layer conducting to the inhomogeneous heat of printing ink from giving birth to thermal resistor, thereby cause unsettled bubble to produce.Therefore, common use is not easy to the outstanding Ta film of fouling.
Below with reference to Fig. 8, with the generation of bubble and the pattern of disappearance in the printing ink that is described in the heat effect part.
In Fig. 8, curve (a) shows at driving voltage V Op=1.3 * V Th(V ThThe threshold voltage that produces for the bubble of printing ink), driving frequency is set to 6kHz and pulse width is set under the situation of 5 μ s, the moment when voltage is applied in living thermal resistor begins the surface temperature change in time of upper protective layer.In addition, curve (b) shows the growth state of the bubble that the moment when voltage is applied in living thermal resistor in a similar manner begins to produce.Shown in curve (a); begin the rising of temperature from the moment that voltage applies, and delayed slightly arrives temperature rise peak value (this is slightly to arrive upper protective layer evening owing to come from the heat of living thermal resistor) in the predetermined pulse time, afterwards; because thermal diffusion, temperature mainly reduces.On the other hand, shown in curve (b), when the temperature when upper protective layer reaches about 300 ℃, begin the growth of bubble, and reach maximum bubblement afterwards, and disappear.In actual ink gun, carry out aforesaid operations in the mode that repeats.Along with the bubble in the printing ink produces, the surface of upper protective layer is elevated to for example about 600 ℃, and how this explanation comprises the heat effect of high temperature in ink mist recording.
Therefore, require to have outstanding membrane property at aspects such as hear resistance, mechanical property, chemical stability, non-oxidizability, alkali resistances with the contacted upper protective layer of printing ink.As the material that is used in the upper protective layer aspect; except that the above-mentioned Ta film of mentioning, noble metal, high-melting-point transition metal, the alloy of these metals, nitride, boride, silicide or carbide, the non-crystalline silicon etc. of these metals in addition known in the prior art.For example, described among the Japanese patent application laid-open publication number No.2001-105596, upper protective layer has been formed on the living thermal resistor, and used by composition formula Ta via insulating barrier αFe βNi γCr δThe amorphous alloy of expression (wherein satisfy 10at.%≤α≤30at.%, alpha+beta〉80at.%, α<β, δ〉γ and alpha+beta+δ+γ=100at.%) make upper protective layer; wherein the contact surface of itself and printing ink comprises the oxide of its component substances, and has proposed a kind of more reliable record head of long life that has.
Yet, in recent years, for in higher-quality document image and the ink jet recording device such as more high performance increases in demand such as high-speed records, and in order to satisfy these demands, require the ink performance of enhancing, for example, in order to obtain that the high-quality document image has proposed the requirement of improved painted characteristic and weather resistance and in order to obtain the requirement that high-speed record has proposed to prevent bleeding (obscuring between the different colours printing ink).Therefore, made the trial of in printing ink, adding various compositions.The kind of printing ink has had variation, except that black, yellow, magenta and cyan, also has the light color inks such as less dense.Described printing ink causes a kind of like this corrosion phenomenon, that is, or even thinking stably on the Ta film as upper protective layer, owing to the thermal chemical reaction with printing ink causes corrosion.Use therein to comprise such as divalent metal salt such as calcium and magnesium or constitute under the situation of printing ink of composition of chelate, can occur above-mentioned phenomenon more significantly.
On the other hand, because higher corrosion resistance makes the surface can damage hardly, thereby the velocity of discharge of printing ink is lowered or becomes unstable, and therefore aforesaid have the corrosive upper protective layer of improved anti-printing ink and be easier to produce fouling.Probably seldom produce fouling in traditional Ta film, this is because the Ta film produces corrosion and fouling on a certain equilibrium level, thereby thereby the surface of Ta film can be suppressed the deposition of fouling product by described corrosive wear.
In addition, in order in ink mist recording, to realize higher writing speed, drive with shorter pulse execution thereby need further to increase driving frequency.In described driving with short pulse more because in the heat effect part of ink gun, repeat at short notice to heat, the program of bubble generation, bubble collapse and cooling, therefore with conventional ADS driving in compare, in shorter time, produce bigger thermal stress.In addition; in the driving of short pulse more; to come from the time shorter that bubble in the printing ink produces and the cavitation shock of bubble shrinkage concentrates on the diaphragm of top, so need exist in the upper protective layer that mechanical shock characteristic aspect is particularly splendid than conventional ADS driving.
In order to form ink gun with the ink gun substrate that described upper protective layer is housed; disclosed in Japanese patent application laid-open publication number No.H6-286149; used a kind of like this method; promptly; use soluble resin to form ink flow path by the lithoprinting forming technique; afterwards with the covering and the described patterns that hardens such as epoxy resin, and when being cut into piece, removes described substrate described soluble resin.
Disclosed in Japanese patent application laid-open publication number No.2002-113870; also can realize higher durability and the reliability of Geng Gao in the following manner; described mode promptly; upper protective layer is configured has two-layerly, use high anti-ink corrosion amorphous state Ta film to use and lowly produce the Ta film of fouling as the upper strata as lower floor.
Yet; make printing ink discharge element elongation (to 0.5 inch or bigger) so that realize under the situation of higher writing speed or use comprise the diversified printing ink of additive so that improve printing ink light resistance on the recording medium or the situation of anti-gaseousness under; owing to the difference in the linear expansion coefficient of described parts and owing to the stress in the resin bed of the wall that constitutes flow path or outlet has produced strain; and the influence of newtype printing ink on the interface, thereby cause constituting the phenomenon of peeling off between the covering resin layer of wall of flow path or outlet and the upper protective layer on the heater substrate.In addition; even under organic adhesion promoter layer is arranged on situation on the upper protective layer; also can cause the peeling off at the interface between organic adhesion promoter layer and the upper protective layer; thereby make the printing ink health to substrate and cause the corrosion of connecting up, thereby hindered record or reliability satisfied in the long term.

(with the adherence of resin)
(example 1)
In order to estimate the Ta in this example simply 88Cr 12Film 107 (is meant the film of the component ratio with Ta88at.% and Cr12at.%; Represent composition hereinafter in a similar manner) and organic adhesion promote adherence between the film (polyetheramides resin) 307, carries out afterwards in pressure cooker test (PCT) and is with disbonded test.
Carry out the band disbonded test in the following manner.On the silicon wafer that carries upper protective layer 107; formed organic adhesion and promoted film (polyetheramides resin) 307, and promoted to form in the mode of 10 (vertically) * 10 (laterally)=100 a foursquare checkerboard pattern on the film 307 square of 1 * 1mm with cutter in organic adhesion with 2 μ m thickness.Pass through at 121 ℃ and 2.0265 * 10 afterwards 5In alkaline printing ink, soaked 10 hours and execution PCT under the condition of Pa (2atm.).Afterwards, adhesive tape is applied on the square in the checkerboard pattern and is stripped from, and studies among 100 squares a plurality of squares by tape stripping.As a result, although among 100 squares, observe about 15 foursquare peeling off, also obtained common gratifying result (table 2).
(comparative example 1)
Ta film in use and the example 1 after the similar methods evaluation PCT and organic adhesion promote the adherence between the film (polyetheramides resin) 307, and the result who is obtained has been shown in table 2.
As shown in table 2, promote the interface place generation between the film 307 to peel off at Ta film and organic adhesion after the PCT, obviously show the degeneration of adhesiveness.
(example 2 to 7)
Similar methods is estimated the PCT Ta of heterogeneity afterwards in use and the example 1 100-xCr xThe adherence of film has illustrated the result who is obtained in table 2.
(comparative example 2 and 3)
Similar methods is estimated PCT adherence afterwards in use and the example 1.At Ta 20Fe 61Cr 14Ni 5(comparative example 2) and Ta 87Fe 10Cr 2Ni 1(comparative example 3) makes an appraisal, and the result who is obtained has been shown in table 2.
