DESCRIPTION
Pigment-Containing Ink for Ink Jet Printers
TECHNICAL FIELD
The present invention relates to an aqueous ink for ink jet printers having a low viscosity and a high dispersibility and containing a pigment of high concentration.
BACKGROUND ART
As printing inks, dye-containing inks in which a dye is dissolved in a solvent as a colorant, and pigmentcontaining inks in which a solid pigment is dispersed in a liquid medium as a colorant are available. The pigmentcontaining ink generally exhibits no discoloration, maintains a fast color, and is excellent in sharpness, compared with the dye-containing ink.
Conventional inks for ink jet printers are primarily dye-containing inks. These inks, however, have disadvantages with regard to bleeding, light resistance, water resistance, etc. Accordingly, the use of pigmentcontaining inks is desired. To overcome such disadvantages, inks containing a pigment such as carbon black, aniline black, etc. have been conceived as disclosed in Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication (kokai) Nos. 61-283875, 64-6074 and 1-31881. The pigmentcontaining inks disclosed in these patent publications, however, have the disadvantages that these inks fix poorly on recording media such as paper sheets, and that agglomeration and sedimentation take place in the ink liquid when the inks contain pigments at high concentration. As a result, the concentration of the pigments in the inks for ink jet printers is required to be low.Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication (Kokai)
No. 5-331395 discloses an ink for ink jet printers in which particles are stabilized. The ink disclosed therein contains water, a colorant and a water-soluble polymer such as a polyvinyl alcohol.
DISCLOSURE OF INVENTION
To prevent a nozzle from clogging, a pigmentcontaining ink having a still lower viscosity and a high dispersibility is desired. An object of the present invention is to provide an ink having a relatively low viscosity and a high dispersibility, and containing a pigment at high concentration. Since a water-insoluble or sparingly water-soluble polymer material is used in the ink at the present invention, the polymer material is not distributed over the entire dispersion system, but is coated onto the surface of the pigment particle's. As a result, it is possible to provide an ink having a low viscosity and a high dispersibility, and containing a pigment at high concentration.
The ink for ink jet printers of the present invention comprises water, a pigment and a water-insoluble or sparingly water-soluble, hydrophilic polymer material, and is characterized in that the pigment is coated with the polymer material.
BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION
The ink is produced, for example, by dissolving a water-insoluble or sparingly water-soluble, hydrophilic polymer material such as isobutylene-maleic anhydride copolymer resins, copolymerized nylons, poly(vinyl isobutyl ether) and poly(vinyl ethyl ether) in an organic solvent miscible with water such as THF (tetrahydrofuran) and DMF (dimethylformamide), adding a pigment, dispersing the pigment with a bead mill, etc., and evaporating the organic solvent. The dispersibility of the pigment can thus be improved by coating the pigment with the waterinsoluble or sparingly water-soluble hydrophilic polymer material, and as a result, the sedimentation of the pigment can be prevented. Moreover, since the tackiness of such a polymer material itself is high, the adhesion of the pigment to a printing medium such as a printing sheet can be improved.
The ink of the present invention may further contain W-ray-curable monomer(s) or oligomer(s). When a medium (paper sheet) is printed with the ink of the present invention containing a curable monomer or oligomer, the ink can be fixed thereon by irradiating the medium with a W-light lamp (e.g., 10 mW/cm2) so that the monomer or oligomer is instantaneously cured. Since such an ink contains a monomer or oligomer having a low viscosity, the ink has the advantage that clogging on the head does not take place because the ink as a whole has a low viscosity and does not cure until W-rays are irradiated. The UVray-curable monomer or oligomer may be any conventional W-ray-curable monomer or oligomer.Examples thereof include TMPTA, DPHA, D-310, D-330 and MANDA (trade name, manufactured by Nippon Kayaku Co., Ltd.). These have the following respective chemical formulas:
TMPTA
DPHA, D-310, D-330
wherein five of the R groups are acryloyl and one of the R groups is alkynoyl, or three of the R groups are acryloyl and three of the R groups are alkynoyl, or a mixture of a compound in which all R groups are acryloyl and a compound in which five of the R groups are acryloyl and one R group is hydroxyl, and
MANDA
Conventional polymerization initiators such as 2,4diethylthioxanthone and benzophenone may be used as polymerization initiators for W-ray curing.
Useful pigments of the present invention include all inorganic and organic pigments used in conventional pigment-containing inks, for example, synthetic inorganic pigments such as carbon black, alumina, barium sulfate, chrome yellow and titanium white and synthetic organic pigments such as azo pigments, lake pigments from basic dyes and phthalocyanine pigments. Furthermore, various metals and their oxides, etc. may also be used as pigments.
The useful particle size of the pigments is from 0.01 to 1 Rm (micron), particularly preferably from 0.01 to 0.5 Rm (micron).
When an organic pigment is used, the ink of the present invention may contain up to about 10% by weight of the organic pigment based on the whole ink composition and, generally, from 1 to 5% by weight being preferred.
When an inorganic pigment is used, the ink may contain up to about 20% by weight of the inorganic pigment, generally from 3 to 10% by weight.
EXAMPLES
The present invention will be illustrated in more detail by making reference to examples, but the present invention is in no way limited thereto.
Example 1 In a bead mill equipped with a temperature control unit, 100 g of THF (tetrahydrofuran), 8 g of a pigment (trade name, Mitsubishi Carbon #230) and 12 g of a isobutylene-maleic anhydride copolymer resin were placed, and dispersed at 400C for about 15 minutes until the resulting particle size became no more than 0.5 Am (micron). The dispersion in an amount of 120 g thus obtained was placed in a solvent-separating apparatus (distillation column), and 1,000 g of distilled water was further added, followed by heating and stirring the mixture to emulsify it. THF was then evaporated until the
THF content became no more than 0.01% based on the weight of water, and then water was evaporated until the water content in the mixture became 80 g. The ink thus obtained is referred to as Dispersion Ink A.
50 parts by weight of Dispersion Ink A, 40 parts by weight of distilled water, 5 parts by weight of diethylene glycol and 5 parts by weight of ethyl alcohol were stirred and mixed by a supermill dispersion mixer (manufactured by
Inoue Seisakusho K.K.), followed by filtering the mixture through a filter (0.5 Cun (micron)) to obtain an ink. The ink had a viscosity of 2.8 cP at 200C, and contained 4% by weight of the pigment.
Example 2
To investigate the effects of a curable monomer contained in the ink, 50 parts by weight of Dispersion Ink
A, 48 parts by weight of TMPTA and 2 parts by weight of benzophenone were stirred and mixed by a supermill dispersion mixer (manufactured by Inoue Seisakusho K.K.), followed by filtering the mixture through a filter (0.5 Am (micron)) to obtain an ink. The ink had a viscosity of 2.1 cP at 200C, and contained 4% by weight of the pigment.
Comnarative Example 1
In a bead mill connected to a temperature control unit, 92 g of water and 8 g of the same pigment as employed in Example 1 were dispersed at 400C for about 15 minutes until the resulting particle size was no more than 0.5 Rm (micron). The ink thus obtained is referred to as
Dispersion Ink B.
50 parts by weight of Dispersion Ink B, 40 parts by weight of distilled water, 5 parts by weight of diethylene glycol and 5 parts by weight of ethyl alcohol were stirred and mixed by a supermill dispersion mixer (manufactured by
Inoue Seisakusho K.K.), followed by filtering the mixture through a filter (0.5 Mm (micron)) to obtain an ink. The ink had a viscosity of 1.8 cP at 200C, and contained 4% by weight of the pigment.
Testing Method
* Test in the Environment for Use (Test 1)
Samples produced in Example 1 and Comparative Example 1 as described above were kept in respective sample bottles at 50C and 400C for 3 months.
* Preservation Test in the Environment for Packing (Test 2)
The samples were kept in respective sample bottles at -5 to 700C for 3 months.
Tests 3 to 6 described below were conducted using a jet printer (trade name of FMJP 201 manufactured by
Fujitsu Ltd.) of the thermal ink jet type. The ink produced in Example 2 was cured for 1 second using a W- light lamp at an intensity of 10 mW/cm.
* Discharge Stability (Test 3)
Continuous discharge of 1,000 sheets was conducted at room temperature (250C), 50C and 400C, and the recording stability was measured.
* Printing Density (Test 4)
Commercially available recycled paper sheets (WR paper sheets manufactured by Xerox) were printed to give specimens, and the density thereon was measured by a
Macbeth densitometer.
* Printing Quality (Test 5)
The recycled paper sheets mentioned above were printed with one dot, and the expantion of the dot diameter (bleeding) of each dot and the circularity of the dot were judged with an optical microscope.
* Adhesion Fixation of Printed Characters (Test 6)
A paper sheet immediately after being printed was rubbed with the same type of paper sheet, and the resultant stain was visually judged.

INDUSTRIAL APPLICABILITY
The use of a water-insoluble or sparingly watersoluble, hydrophilic polymer material such as isobutylenemaleic anhydride copolymer resin increases the stability of an aqueous dispersion of a pigment coated therewith, and improves the adhesion of the pigment to the medium (paper sheet) during printing due to the tackiness of the polymer material.
The addition of a W-ray-curing monomer or oligomer lowers the viscosity of the ink as a whole, and no curing takes place so long as W-rays are not irradiated.
Accordingly, no clogging takes place on the head.
Printing can thus be conducted with a pigmentcontaining ink excellent in resistance to water and light in place of a dye-containing ink.
