Definitions
- Digital printing involves technologies in which a printed image is created directly from digital data, for example using electronic layout and/or desktop publishing programs.
- Some known methods of digital printing include full-color ink-jet, electrophotographic printing, laser photo printing, and thermal transfer printing methods.
- Electrophotographic (EP) printing techniques involve the formation of a latent image on a photoconductor surface mounted on an imaging plate.
- the photoconductor is first sensitized to light, usually by charg- ing with a corona discharge, and then exposed to light projected through a positive film of the document to be reproduced, resulting in dissipation of the charge in the areas exposed to light.
- the latent image is subsequently developed into a full image by the attraction of oppositely charged toner particles to the charge remaining on the unexposed areas.
- the developed image is transferred from the photoconductor to a rubber offset blanket, from which it is transferred to a substrate, such as paper, plastic or other suitable material, by heat or pressure or a combination of both to produce the printed final image.
- the latent image is developed using either a dry toner (a colorant mixed with a powder carrier) or a liquid ink (a suspension of a colorant in a liquid carrier).
- the toner or ink generally adheres to the substrate surface with little penetration into the substrate.
- the quality of the final image is largely related to the size of the particles, with higher resolution provided by smaller particles.
- Dry toners used in solid electrophotography are fine powders with a relatively narrow particle size distribution that are expelled from fine apertures in an application device.
- Liquid inks used in liquid electrophotography are general- ly comprised of pigment- or dye-based thermoplastic resin particles suspended in a non-conducting liquid carrier, generally a saturated hydrocarbon.
- HP Electrolnk is a unique liquid ink (Liquid EP) that combines the advantages of electronic printing with the qualities of liquid ink.
- HP Electrolnk con- tains charged pigmented particles in a liquid carrier.
- HP Electrolnk enables digital printing by electrically controlling the location of the print particles.
- HP Electrolnk enables very small particle size, down to 1 to 2 ⁇ .
- HP Electrolnk is supplied as a concentrated paste that is loaded into the press in tubular cartridges in a "clean hands" operation. Inside the press, it is fed into ink supply tanks and diluted with an oil, to form a fluid mixture of carrier liquid and colorant particles ready for printing.
- FIG. 1 is a flow chart depicting a method in accordance with examples of the present disclosure.
- FIG. 2 is a line drawing of a paper coupon with white and black background following testing in a Q/m (charge/mass) cell, according to an example.
- carrier fluid As used herein, “carrier fluid”, “carrier liquid”, or “liquid vehicle” refers to the fluid in which the pigmented resin material of the present disclosure can be dispersed to form an ink dispersion.
- a carrier liquid can be formulated for electrophotographic printing so that the electrophotographic ink has a viscosity and conductivity for such printing, and may include a mixture of a variety of different agents, including without limitation, surfactants, organic solvents and co-solvents, charge control agents, viscosity modifiers, sequestering agents, and stabilizing agents.
- the liquid vehicle can further carry solid additives such as resins, latexes, UV curable materials, plasticizers, salts, charge control agents, etc.
- solid additives such as resins, latexes, UV curable materials, plasticizers, salts, charge control agents, etc.
- co-solvent refers to any solvent, including organic solvents, present in the electrophotographic liquid vehicle.
- substituted means that a hydrogen atom of a compound or moiety is replaced by another atom such as a carbon atom or a hete- roatom, which is part of a group referred to as a substituent.
- the term "about” is used to provide flexibility to a numerical range endpoint by providing that a given value may be "a little above” or “a little below” the endpoint, and may be related to manufacturing tolerances. The degree of flexibility of this term can be dictated by the particular variable and would be within the knowledge of those skilled in the art to determine based on experience and the associated description herein. In some examples, “about” may refer to a difference of ⁇ 10%.
- Liquid electrophotographic (LEP) inks currently used in digital printing presses typically employ a pigment in a carrier, usually a hydrocarbon-based carrier, such as an isoparaffinic liquid (ISOPAR®, a series of isoparaffinic liquids available from Exxon Chemicals, Houston, TX, is an example of a suitable carrier).
- a hydrocarbon-based carrier such as an isoparaffinic liquid (ISOPAR®, a series of isoparaffinic liquids available from Exxon Chemicals, Houston, TX, is an example of a suitable carrier).
- the LEP inks may often include a resin, as well as other ink components for adjusting various desirable properties.
- the resin holds the pigment on the print media.
- Other ink components may include a charge director and a silicone additive to help transfer the ink from a blanket to the print media and to extend the life of the blanket.
- HP CMYK (cyan, magenta, yellow, black) Indigo Electrolnks constitute the main process color inks for the LEP printing technology, while orange, violet, green, white, transparent, and silver-like Electrolnks are used in specialty printing applications.
- the demand for white LEP ink may increase considerably due to the anticipated need for digital packaging applications.
- Current white LEP inks employ primarily titanium dioxide- (titania-; T1O2-) based pigments. They may be costly from a production standpoint and may require a larger amount of titania loading to achieve the desired opacity of at least 40%.
- high opacity white inks based on mica-based minerals with titania are provided.
- white inks having "high opacity” is meant an ink having an opacity of at least 40%.
- An opacity of less than 40% is not opaque enough to cover a black image on the print media.
- An opacity of 45% may be an improvement.
- An opacity of 50% may find use in many examples.
- An opacity of 60% or more may be considered to be "super white”.
- Such opacities may be achieved in accordance with the teachings herein, depending on a variety of factors, including the type of mica and the ratio of the mica-titania used.
- titan ia-coated synthetic mica which has flat morphologies and is substantially free of impurities, such as iron oxides, may provide the whitest effect pigment currently available.
- Ti may be incorporated in an iron-free mica (magnesium-aluminum-silicate) structure as a dopant ion or a replacement ion, such as for magnesium.
- the amount of T1O2 on or in the mica is in the range of about 20 to 40 wt%.
- the fabrication of white LEP inks is also described, using mica minerals to potentially reduce final ink cost and achieve the desired opacity.
- the mica is often present as flakes, having a thickness ranging from about 100 to 500 nm and length of about 10 to 25 ⁇ .
- the final lengths of the mica flakes may be reduced to between about 0.2 to 5 ⁇ and then passivated with latex particles before being incorporated into a transparent resin paste. Although passivation is not necessary, it helps to achieve better development of the final white ink particles in LEP process and improve opacity.
- a high opacity of 75% may be obtained while other similar formulations can achieve an opacity in the range of 40% to 65%.
- coated mica-group minerals may be used as the active white pigments. These mica-based minerals may be low cost. Exam- pies of such pigments are available from BASF (Florham Park, NJ): Gold Exterior 230D30 (denoted “MGM1 " in Table I below) Lumina® Exterior Gold 2303D, GlacierTM Frost White 9S130D (denoted “MGM2” in Table I below) and GlacierTM Exterior Frost White S1303D (denoted "MGM3" in Table I below). According to information from BASF, these pigments appear to be synthetic mica coated with titania.
- These commercially-available pigments are large flakes from 10 to 25 ⁇ in length. Their sizes have to be reduced to between 0.2 to 5 ⁇ in order to facilitate transfer from the printing press to the transfer blanket and then to the print medium. In this connection, larger sizes may not transfer well. In some ex- amples, the size of the pigment may be about 2 ⁇ . In the size range of about 0.2 to 5 ⁇ , a mixture of pigments with low to high aspect ratios can act as a good medium for light reflection/scattering, and create the desired reflective index difference with their surrounding medium to deliver the desired opacity. Examples of aspect ratios may range from about 100 to 5,000. The targeted size range can be easily achieved by grinding with ceramic milling beads.
- Latex particles may be added to passivate the surfaces of these pigments.
- passivation is meant that the latex coats the surface of the mica.
- the latex coating may help in low background development since the conductive mica surface is somewhat suppressed.
- the passivation also may help in reflectivity by forming a smooth surface, which increases scattering of light.
- the amount of latex may range from about 20 to 100 wt% of the mica. In some examples, the amount of latex may be about 60 wt%. Both commercial and custom-made latex particles may be used.
- the building blocks of the latex polymer that have shown to passivate these pigments may include any of sty- rene, butyl acrylate, methyl methacrylate, hexyl acrylate, hexyl methacrylate, 2- ethylhexyl acrylate, 2-ethylhexyl methacrylate, glycidyl methacrylate, methacry- lonitrile, acrylic acid, and methacrylic acid and mixtures thereof.
- coatings may include polymeric resins such as polyethylene-based resins, polyester-based re- sins, polyurethane-based resins, and mixtures thereof.
- the molecular weight of the latex polymer may be in the range of about 30,000 to 1 ,000,000 (weight average).
- passivated mica means mica associated with polymeric resins such as polyethylene-based resins, latex- based resins, polyester-based resins, polyurethane-based resins or their combi- nation of one or more resins.
- the mica with titania, or pigment, further coated with latex particles may be initially mixed in water.
- the water may be removed at, for example, ambient temperature.
- the entire mixture (mica coated with titania and latex) may be dispersed in a non-polar solvent such as ISOPAR® L. If latex is not added, the pigment can be ground directly in ISOPAR® L.
- the pigment or pigment passivated with latex is milled with a transparent resin paste, such as HP Indigo transparent resin paste, to form a paste concentrate.
- the paste concentrate may have a ratio of pigment (or passivated pigment) to resin paste in the range of about 20:80 to 80:20. In some examples, the ratio may be 60:40 by weight.
- transparent is meant a transparency in the optical wavelength region (about 300 to 700 nm) of the electromagnetic spectrum of at least about 90%.
- a method 100 for manufacturing a high opacity white ink includes: providing 105 a mica-based mineral; and incorporating 1 10 the mica-based mineral into a transparent resin paste to form a paste concentrate.
- the mica-based mineral may be unpassivated or passivated with polymeric resins, as described above.
- the concentrated ink is ready for packaging and shipping to an operator/printer, where it may be diluted with additional carrier to the appropriate concentration for printing.
- charge directors such as transfer additives (to aid in the transfer of ink from the blanket to the print media), viscosity modifiers, and the like, may be added.
- an alternative shear-applying process such as microfluidization, may be used.
- the liquid electrophotographic ink can include a carrier fluid such as an aliphatic hydrocarbon including substituted or unsubstituted, linear or branched, aliphatic compounds. Additionally, such hydrocarbons can include aryl substituents.
- the aliphatic hydrocarbons can be substantially non-aqueous, i.e. containing less than 0.5 wt% water. In another example, the aliphatic hydrocarbons can be non-aqueous, i.e. containing no water.
- the aliphatic hydrocarbons can comprise a member selected from the group of paraffins, isoparaffins, oils, and alkanes having from about 6 to about 100 carbon atoms, and mixtures thereof.
- the aliphatic hydrocarbons . , or carrier fluid can be isopa- raffins, such as or equivalent to the ISOPAR® high-purity isoparaffinic solvents with narrow boiling ranges marketed by Exxon Mobil Corporation (Fairfax, Va., USA).

- the NCD can be at least one of the following: zwitterionic material, such as soya lecithin; basic barium petronate (BBP); calcium petronate; isopropyl amine do- decylbenzene sulfonic acid; etc.
- the NCD can be soya lecithin at 6.6% w/w, BBP at 9.8% w/w, isopropyl amine dodecyl- benzene sulfonic acid at 3.6% w/w and about 80% w/w isoparaffin (ISOPAR®-L from Exxon).
- the NCD can be any ionic surfactant and/or electron carrier dissolved material.
- the charge director can be a synthetic charge director.
- the charge director can also include aluminum tri- stearate, barium stearate, chromium stearate, magnesium octoate, iron naph- thenate, zinc naphthenate, and mixtures thereof.
- Inks may be prepared having about 2 to 4 wt% of solid content in a hydrocarbon liquid, such as ISOPAR® L. In some examples, the amount of solid is about 2 wt%.
- Example 1 Coated Mica Without Latex Particles (Samples 1 a-1 d).
- Pigment (MGM1 , 50 g) and 2 mm yttria beads (855 g) were taken in a ceramic chamber of 750 ml and placed in an attritor S-0.
- ISOPAR® L 140 g was added and stirred at 500 RPM and at 20C for 3 h. The reduction of size to about 1 to 3 ⁇ was achieved under these conditions.
- a small amount was taken out and mixed with HP Indigo transparent resin to have a pigment to resin ratio of 60:40 by weight.
- This mixture (Sample 1 a, as 2 wt% non-volatile solid con- tent (NVS
- Paper coupons with white and black background were used. Y values were obtained for these images using Elrepho spectrophotometer and then opacity was calculated to be 75%. Y is a measure of brightness at D65 illumination. Opacity was calculated by dividing Y value of image obtained in the black background to the same in the white background and then multiplying the value by 100. The remaining portion was mixed with HP Indigo transparent resin to have pigment to resin ratio of 35:65 by weight. This mixture was tested with various NVS (2 wt%, 3 wt%, and 4 wt%; Samples 1 b- 1 d). in the Q/M cell using paper coupons with white and black background.
- FIG. 2 shows an example of a coupon (Sample 1 b) developed on the black background from the Q/m cell.
- the Y values were obtained for these images using an Elrepho spectrophotometer and the opacity was calculated to be 41 %.
- the details are shown in Table I below.
- the ratio of mica pigment plays a key role in the opacity as can be seen in Table I; the higher the pigment content (for example comparison between Samples 1 a and 1 b), the higher the opacity. This compares to that of the 50 wt% of titania pigment which exhibits an opacity of about 61 %. It appears that the desired degree of opacity can be obtained with less amount of the MGM pigment.
- Example 2 Coated Mica With Latex Passivation (Sample 7).
- Pigment (MGM3, 10 g) and 2 mm yttria beads (333 g) were taken in a ceramic chamber of 750 ml and placed in in an attritor S-0.
- the mixture was taken again in the ceramic chamber and redispersed in ISOPAR® L (45 g) at 200 RPM for 30 min.
- the dispersion was mixed with HP Indigo transparent resin to form a paste concentrate having a pigment to total resins ratio of 50:50 by weight and stirred at 200 RPM for 30 min.
- This mixture was tested in the Q/m cell using paper coupons with white and black background similar to Example 1 .
- SEM images were taken of the pigment MGM3, after reducing the size by grinding and after passivation. Y values were obtained for these images and then opacity was calculated to be 40%.
- the opacities obtained for other compositions and with MGM2 pigment are also included in Table I. Based on the opacity values shown in Table 1 , opacity can be adjusted by selecting the type of mica and the amount of mica in the ink.
- Low-cost pigments which can be milled with lower shear may be used to obtain white LEP inks.
- the size of the pigments can be reduced easily and latex passivation can be implemented for these pigments to potentially overcome background issues.
- the present approach has wider materials and process space to achieve desired levels of opacity. It is interesting to note that higher opacity can be obtained with lesser amount of pigment than for titania in the final ink.
- Indigo titania pigment has 100% titania whereas mica has 20 to
- Low-cost pigments which can be milled with lower shear are used to obtain white LEP inks.
- the size of the pigments can be reduced easily and la- tex passivation can be implemented for these pigments to potentially overcome the background issues.
- the present approach has wider materials and process space to achieve desired levels of opacity. It is interesting to note that higher opacity can be obtained with lesser amount of pigment (than in the titania case) in the final ink. This can potentially reduce the final ink layer thickness required to achieve the same level of opacity compared to titania-based inks.
