Description

The water-based ink composition and the fine pointed ballpoint pen that are used for fine pointed ballpoint pen
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of water-based ink composition that is used for ballpoint pen, in particular to a kind of when to be used for the ball diameter be 0.5 millimeter or littler, in the time of particularly in 0.4 millimeter or the littler fine pointed ballpoint pen, has the water-based ink composition of excellent ball mount pad wear resistance, line quality, venting characteristic and excellent time stability; And a kind of fine pointed ballpoint pen.
Background technology
When writing with ballpoint pen, ink is transported to writing position by the rotation of ball, and also have following problem so far: clamping ball and the parts (ball mount pad (ball-housing seat)) that contact with it in ball-point pen tip inside wear and tear along with the ball rotation, to such an extent as to discharging opening for permitting discharging of the toner stops up, perhaps the filleting of clamping ball part (caulking part) contacts with paper, causes to write bad (for example lack China ink and write failure).Therefore, attempted in ball pen ink, adding water-soluble machining oil and tensio-active agent, ink is mixed with for example solid lubricant of boron nitride, wax emulsion or resin particle as anti-wear agent.But, do not obtain satisfied effect for the wear resistance of ball-point pen tip mount pad.
In addition, advised that (for example Japan's special permission disclose No. 206066/2002) adds particle diameter is that 0.1 micron or bigger and 30 microns or littler fine particle (for example aluminum oxide), silicon carbide and chromic oxide (their new Mohs' hardness is 4 or bigger) are as the measure that prevents that the ball mount pad weares and teares in the ball-point pen tip in composition for ink.But, this brings writes the problem that sensation variation and line quality reduce, because the phenomenon (broken string (skipping)) that with the presentation direction difference inhomogenous phenomenon of venting amount (directivity defective (directional error)) and ball rotation stop to slide on bottom surface with ball the fracture of ruling occurred temporarily.Particularly in the ball diameter is 0.5 millimeter or littler fine pointed ballpoint pen, can not obtain the effect of satisfied inhibition mount pad wearing and tearing in some cases, thereby be difficult to the writing quality level that reaches specific.It is believed that the reasons for the above problems are as follows.In fine pointed ballpoint pen, to compare with conventional ball-point pen tip, the ball mount pad has littler area, so bears bigger load on the mount pad of unit surface, to such an extent as to it has high friction resistance and by noticeable wear.In addition, it has little discharging opening for permitting discharging of the toner and takes place easily and writes failure by what obstruction caused.In addition, little and the ball of the ball diameter of fine pointed ballpoint pen is little from the outstanding part of nib, so the wearing and tearing of mount pad make the ball protuberance littler, contacts with the paper surface to such an extent as to hold the filleting part of ball, cause tangible problem, for example comprise lack China ink and write writing of failure bad.Therefore, fine pointed ballpoint pen is under the state that wearing and tearing quicken, and the wear intensity of in addition keeping writing quality and being allowed is little.Therefore, cause the serious inconvenience that before ink is used up, can not write easily, and in the design of fine pointed ballpoint pen, have bigger problem.Particularly, be that friction resistance further increases, and therefore significantly causes the wearing and tearing of mount pad in the situation of 0.4 millimeter or littler fine pointed ballpoint pen at the ball diameter.Therefore in addition, make ball smoothly rotate difficulty, related to and write sensation variation and because directivity defective and broken string and serious problems that the quality of ruling reduces.
In addition, because the discharging opening for permitting discharging of the toner area is little, the venting characteristic of the fine pointed ballpoint pen that the ball diameter is little is variation often, to such an extent as to need to reduce the viscosity of ink usually.But, when mixing fine particle in ink, As time goes on the particle with big proportion settles down, and causes serious problem, therefore the obstruction of for example writing sensation variation, venting characteristic variation and being caused by sedimentation and writing of causing is bad need address this is that in early days.
Therefore, in the ball diameter for example is 0.5 millimeter or littler fine pointed ballpoint pen, only add particle diameter and be 0.1 micron or bigger and 30 microns or littler fine particle and can not suppress the wearing and tearing of mount pad satisfactorily, and the bad serious problems of writing that the line quality reduces, writes sensation variation, venting characteristic variation and the obstruction that causes owing to sedimentation causes occur.
An object of the present invention is to provide a kind of water-based ink composition that is used for fine pointed ballpoint pen, it can suppress the wearing and tearing of mount pad and be excellent aspect venting characteristic and the time stability, and has and level and smooth write sensation and can write for a long time; The present invention also provides a kind of fine pointed ballpoint pen.
