Definitions
- the present invention relates to an actinic ray curable inkjet magenta ink and an inkjet recording method.
- the ink jet recording method is used in various printing fields because it can form an image easily and inexpensively.
- an actinic ray curable ink jet method in which droplets of ultraviolet curable ink are landed on a recording medium and then cured by irradiation with actinic rays to form an image.
- the actinic ray curable ink jet method has been attracting attention in recent years because an image having high adhesion can be formed even on a recording medium having no ink absorbability.
- a technique for incorporating a gelling agent in the actinic radiation curable inkjet ink for the purpose of preventing adjacent dots from being identical and improving the scratching property of the obtained image. It has been.
- the gelling agent crystallizes at the time of landing and the ink gels, so that the dots can be prevented from spreading, and the viscosity of the ink can be increased even at a low temperature. It is possible to obtain a printed material having excellent scratch resistance.
- Patent Document 1 by adding an oil gelling agent to an ink-jet ink containing a pigment and a photopolymerizable compound, solidification of ink droplets landed on a recording medium is completed in a short time, thereby preventing dot identity. It is out.
- Patent Document 2 an image having good fastness is efficiently formed by adding a gelling agent that gels at a low temperature to a radiation-curable ink containing a pigment or a dye.
- the dispersibility of the pigment can be improved and the ink can be stably stored by adding a polymer dispersant to the ink.
- the dispersion of the pigment is stabilized by adding a larger amount of the polymer dispersant than the pigment by weight.
- dispersion stability is further enhanced by adding a polymer dispersant in an amount larger than that of the pigment by weight ratio to the ink and adding a dispersion synergist.
- the pigment particles are surface-treated to give an acidic adsorption functional group such as sulfonic acid, so that the basic functional group of the polymer dispersant and the pigment are easily associated with each other, and the storage stability of the ink is improved. Can be increased.
- Quinacridones are known as magenta pigments for inkjet inks. Among them, formation is performed using a solid solution of Pigment Violet 19 (PV19) and Pigment Red 202 (PR202) (hereinafter also referred to as PV19 / PR202). The color gamut of the obtained image can be further expanded.

- Alumina can be applied to the surface of the pigment particles, for example, by the method described in Patent Document 5 and Patent Document 6.
- the degree of crystallization of the gelling agent may vary depending on the surface treatment state of the pigment. For example, in an inkjet ink containing a gelling agent, when a pigment provided with alumina on the surface is used, crystallization of the gelling agent is inhibited due to the association of alumina and the gelling agent. If the gelling agent does not crystallize, excessive leveling occurs and the gloss of the image surface tends to occur. Further, when the gelling agent that has not been crystallized is deposited on the surface of the cured ink, gloss is generated on the surface of the image and the contrast ratio with other colors is lost. In particular, a magenta ink such as PV19 / PR202 tends to cause such a problem of gloss difference.

- the surface treatment can be performed by a known method.
- the surface treatment with alumina can be performed by the method described in Patent Document 5 or Patent Document 6, or the method of suspending alumina in a dispersion in which a pigment is dispersed and then adjusting the pH.
- the amount of alumina applied can be adjusted to a desired amount by changing the amount of alumina added in each method.
- the surface treatment with sulfonic acid can be performed by a method in which a sulfonating agent is added to the slurry-like pigment dispersion and both are reacted at a high temperature.
- the application amount of the sulfonic acid can be adjusted to a desired amount by adjusting the amount of the sulfonating agent to be added.
- the amount of applied alumina or sulfonic acid is determined by measuring the pigment with an inductively coupled plasma emission spectrometer (ICP-AES) or the like and quantifying the amount of alumina (or Al element) or sulfonic acid (or S element). You can confirm it.
- ICP-AES inductively coupled plasma emission spectrometer
- alumina or sulfonic acid may be detached from the pigment during storage, so the amount of alumina (or Al element) or sulfonic acid (or S element) in the ink is quantified.

- Alumina is preferably applied in a mass ratio of 1500 to 7500 ppm with respect to the pigment.
- the applied amount of alumina is 1500 ppm or more, the affinity for the photopolymerizable compound and the polymer dispersant is increased, and the pigment can be stably stored.
- the application amount of alumina is 7500 ppm or less, it is possible to suppress insufficient crystallization of the gelling agent due to the association between alumina and the gelling agent, and thus it is possible to suppress the occurrence of gloss due to excessive leveling. .
- the amount of alumina applied can be changed according to the properties required for the actinic ray type ink jet magenta ink. For example, when the applied amount of alumina is 5000 to 7500 ppm, the affinity with the photopolymerizable compound is increased, so that the storage stability of the magenta ink can be further increased. Further, when the applied amount of alumina is 2500 to 3000 ppm, Since the gelling agent is appropriately crystallized, the gloss difference from other colors can be further reduced.
- the amount of the sulfonic acid is not particularly limited, but it is preferably 1000 to 1500 ppm by mass with respect to the pigment.
- the solid solution preferably contains more PV19 than PR202 by mass ratio. By setting such a ratio, it is possible to expand the usable color gamut in the dark color direction.
- solid solutions may be commercially available. Commercially available examples of such solid solutions include CINQUASIA Magenta L4540, D4500J manufactured by BASF, CINQUASIA Red L4330, RT-355D, 228-2120 manufactured by Sun chemical, and Inkjet MagentaE manufactured by Clariant.
- the pigment can be dispersed by, for example, a ball mill, sand mill, attritor, roll mill, agitator, Henschel mixer, colloid mill, ultrasonic homogenizer, pearl mill, wet jet mill, paint shaker, or the like.
- the pigment is dispersed so that the average particle diameter of the pigment particles is preferably 0.08 to 0.5 ⁇ m, and the maximum particle diameter is preferably 0.3 to 10 ⁇ m, more preferably 0.3 to 3 ⁇ m. Is preferred.
- the dispersion of the pigment is adjusted by the selection of the pigment, the polymer dispersant, and the dispersion medium, the dispersion conditions, the filtration conditions, and the like.

- D diffusion coefficient
- D diffusion coefficient
- T temperature
- ⁇ viscosity of the diluent
- a particle size
- the content of the pigment is preferably 0.1 to 20% by mass, more preferably 0.4 to 10% by mass with respect to the actinic ray curable inkjet magenta ink. This is because if the pigment content is too low, the resulting image will not be sufficiently colored, and if it is too high, the viscosity of the ink will increase and the ejection properties will decrease.
- the actinic ray curable inkjet magenta ink contains a polymer dispersant. By including the polymer dispersant, the dispersibility of the pigment can be enhanced.
- the type of polymer dispersant is not particularly limited.
- Preferred examples of the polymer dispersant include BYK-2164, BYK-168, BYK N-22024, manufactured by BYK Chemie, BYK JET-9150, BYK JET-9151, BYK JET-9151, EFKA 7701, EFKA 4310, manufactured by BASF. , EFKA 4320, EFKA 4401, SOLPERSE 24000GR, SOLSPERSE 39000, Ajinomoto Fine Techno Co., Ajisper PB821, PB824, etc. manufactured by Avecia.
- the content of the polymer dispersant is preferably 20% to 70% by mass, more preferably 30 to 60% by mass, and further preferably 35 to 50% by mass with respect to the pigment. If the content of the polymer dispersant relative to the pigment is too high, the polymer dispersant associates with the gelling agent to inhibit gelation, and pinning does not work when the ink droplets land, causing the droplets to spread and liquid. This is because the droplets overlap and a so-called liquid deviation occurs and the image quality deteriorates. On the other hand, if the content of the polymer dispersant with respect to the pigment is small, the polymer surface cannot be sufficiently covered with the polymer dispersant, and the stability is lowered.
- the polymer dispersant preferably has a comb block structure.
- polymer dispersants in particular, by using a polymer dispersant having a block copolymer (comb-shaped) skeleton, it becomes easier to obtain a steric hindrance effect that suppresses aggregation between pigments by extending side chains. This is because dispersibility is improved.
- a hydroxyl group-containing carboxylic acid ester for example, a hydroxyl group-containing carboxylic acid ester, a salt of a long chain polyaminoamide and a high molecular weight acid ester, a salt of a high molecular weight polycarboxylic acid, a salt of a long chain polyaminoamide and a polar acid ester, Molecular weight unsaturated acid ester, polymer copolymer, modified polyurethane, modified polyacrylate, polyether ester type anionic activator, naphthalene sulfonic acid formalin condensate salt, aromatic sulfonic acid formalin condensate salt, polyoxyethylene alkyl phosphoric acid Esters, polyoxyethylene nonylphenyl ether, stearylamine acetate, and the like may be added.

- the actinic ray curable inkjet magenta ink may further contain a dispersion aid as required.
- the dispersion aid may be selected according to the pigment.
- the total amount of the polymer dispersant and the dispersion aid is preferably 1 to 50% by mass with respect to the pigment.
- the actinic ray curable inkjet magenta ink may further include a dispersion medium for dispersing the pigment as necessary.
- a solvent may be included in the ink as the dispersion medium, but in order to suppress the residual solvent in the formed image, a photopolymerizable compound (particularly a monomer having a low viscosity) described below is preferably the dispersion medium. .
- the actinic ray curable inkjet magenta ink contains a crystalline gelling agent (also referred to as a gelling agent).
- Gelling agents are generally defined as organic substances that are solid at room temperature and become liquid when heated.
- the melting point of the gelling agent is preferably 30 ° C or higher and lower than 150 ° C.
- the gelling agent contained in the actinic radiation curable inkjet magenta ink is at least 1) soluble in the photopolymerizable compound at a temperature higher than the sol-gel phase transition temperature, and 2) in the ink at a temperature lower than the sol-gel phase transition temperature. It is preferable to crystallize with.
- sol-gel phase transition temperature refers to the temperature at the change (transition) point at which the sol state changes to the gel state (transition).
- Gelation temperature, gel transition temperature, gel dissolution temperature, gel softening temperature It is synonymous with terms called sol-gel phase transition temperature, sol-gel transition point, and gel point.
- the structure in which the photopolymerizable compound is encapsulated in the space three-dimensionally surrounded by the plate crystal is sometimes referred to as “card house structure”.
- the liquid photopolymerizable compound can be held and ink droplets can be pinned. Thereby, coalescence of droplets can be suppressed.
- the photopolymerizable compound dissolved in the ink and the gelling agent are compatible.
- the photopolymerizable compound dissolved in the ink and the gelling agent are phase-separated, it may be difficult to form a card house structure.
- phase separation occurs because there are a portion in which the ink component including the liquid photopolymerizable compound is held in the ink by the card house structure and a portion in which the ink component is not.
- the inventors have found that this phenomenon occurs more prominently in the magenta ink containing quinacridone as a main component compared to other pigments.
- the pigment is treated with alumina, the surface of the pigment is charged.
- the interaction with the charged pigment works more strongly with the photopolymerizable compound than with the gelling agent in the ink. Therefore, it is estimated that the pinning property is improved because the gelling agent is less susceptible to the gelation from other ink components and the card house structure can be normally formed. Further, it is presumed that the dispersion stability of the ink is improved because the pigment is treated with the sulfonic acid so that the binding with the dispersant is more reliably performed. With such a configuration, the gloss stability can be improved and the difference in glossiness with other inks can be easily adjusted without reducing the content of the gelling agent.
- the kind of gelling agent is not particularly limited.
- Preferred examples of gelling agents include Ketone waxes such as dilignoceryl ketone, dibehenyl ketone, distearyl ketone, diecosyl ketone, dipalmityl ketone, dilauryl ketone, dimyristyl ketone, myristyl palmityl ketone, palmityl stearyl ketone, etc.
- Ester waxes such as benenyl behenate, icosyl icosanoate, stearyl stearate, palmityl stearate, cetyl palmitate, myristyl myristate, cetyl myristate, myricyl serotate (eg Unistar M-2222SL (manufactured by NOF Corporation), Exepearl SS (manufactured by Kao Corporation, melting point 60 ° C.), EMALEXCC-18 (manufactured by Nippon Emulsion Co., Ltd.), Amreps PC (manufactured by Higher Alcohol Industry Co., Ltd.), EXCEPARL MY-M (manufactured by Kao Corporation), SPALM ACETI (NOF Corporation Company-
- ketone wax, ester wax, higher fatty acid, higher alcohol, and fatty acid amide are particularly preferable, and ketone wax or ester wax is more preferable.
- Particularly preferred gelling agents include compounds represented by the following general formulas (G1) and (G2).
- General formula (G1) R1-CO-R2
- General formula (G2) R3-COO-R4
- R1 to R4 each independently represents an alkyl chain having a straight chain portion having 12 or more carbon atoms and which may have a branch.
- General formula (G1) is called ketone wax, and general formula (G2) is called fatty acid ester. These gelling agents are preferable because the ink droplets can be gelled more stably (with good reproducibility), and coalescence of ink droplets (dots) landed on the recording medium can be suppressed.
- the sol-gel phase transition temperature of the ink jet magenta ink is arbitrarily set, but is preferably in the range of 30 to 100 ° C. from the viewpoint of stable ejection properties of ink droplets, adverse effects associated with high-temperature heating, and the like.
- the sol-gel phase transition temperature is preferably between the ink temperature in the ink jet recording head and the temperature of the recording medium.
- the sol-gel phase transition temperature is measured by, for example, placing a gel-like test piece on a heat plate, heating the heat plate, measuring the temperature at which the shape of the test piece collapses, and using this as the sol-gel phase transition temperature. Can be sought. It can also be measured using a commercially available viscoelasticity measuring device (for example, Physica viscoelasticity measuring device MCR300).
- the sol-gel phase transition temperature can be adjusted by the type and amount of the photopolymerizable compound described below.
- Actinic ray curable inkjet magenta ink contains a predetermined amount of gelling agent, so it is ejected from the inkjet recording head and landed on the recording medium as ink droplets, and the temperature drops to a temperature lower than the sol-gel phase transition temperature. Then, it will be in a gel state immediately. For this reason, mixing of dots and dot coalescence are suppressed, and high image quality can be formed during high-speed printing. Thereafter, the gelled ink droplets are irradiated with light and cured, whereby the ink droplets are fixed on the recording medium to form a strong image film.
- the actinic ray curable inkjet magenta ink is a gel that quickly forms an ink droplet that has landed on the recording medium, so that the ink droplet does not diffuse on the recording medium, so that oxygen in the environment does not easily enter the ink droplet. .
- curing is less susceptible to oxygen inhibition.
- the content of the gelling agent in the actinic ray curable inkjet magenta ink is 1.5 to 3.0% by mass, and more preferably 2.0 to 2.5% by mass with respect to the entire ink.
- the total amount of these is preferably in the above range.
- the gelling agent content is less than 1.5% by mass, the pinning property of the ink is lowered, so that the actinic ray curable inkjet magenta ink does not sufficiently undergo the sol-gel phase transition and the ink dot system spreads. There is.
- the gelling agent content exceeds 3.0% by mass, the gelling agent deposited on the image surface may cause excessive glossiness in the ink, and ink ejection properties from the inkjet head may be reduced.
- the actinic ray curable inkjet magenta ink may further contain a fatty acid different from the above-described gelling agent. This is because the storage stability and the ejection stability are improved by improving the dispersion stability of the ink. In addition, the surface slipperiness of the ink when ink is ejected onto the recording medium is improved.
- the fatty acid is preferably a compound having 12 or more carbon atoms. Specific examples of fatty acids include behenic acid (C 22 H 44 O 2 ), arachidic acid (C 20 H 40 O 2 ), stearic acid (C 18 H 36 O 2 ), palmitic acid (C 16 H 32 O 2 ).

- the content of the fatty acid is preferably 0.01 mass ppm to 10 mass ppm, more preferably 0.01 mass ppm to 0.18 mass ppm with respect to the total mass of the ink. This is because if it is less than 0.01 ppm by mass, the dispersion stability of the ink is poor and good storage stability and ejection stability cannot be obtained. In addition, the surface slipperiness of the ink when ink is ejected onto the recording medium is deteriorated, and so-called paper jam is likely to occur. On the other hand, if it exceeds 10 ppm by mass, the dispersion stability of the ink is lowered.

活性光線硬化型インクジェットマゼンタインクは、前述のように、温度により可逆的にゾルゲル相転移するインクである。ゾルゲル相転移型の活性光線硬化型インクは、高温(例えば80℃程度)ではゾルであるため、インクジェット記録ヘッドから吐出することができる。高温下で活性光線硬化型インクジェットマゼンタインクを吐出すると、インク滴(ドット)が記録媒体に着弾した後、自然冷却されてゲル化する。これにより、隣り合うドット同士の合一を抑制し、画質を高めることができる。
本発明に係るインクジェット記録方法は、1)上述の活性光線硬化型インクジェットマゼンタインクを含むインクセットに含まれるインクをインクジェット記録ヘッドから記録媒体に射出する工程と、2)記録媒体に着弾したインクに活性光線を照射する工程と、を含む。
マゼンタ顔料(PV19/PR202、未処理のBASF社製 CINQUASIA Magenta D4500J)1.0kgを水に投入して撹拌・分散した後に、NaOH水溶液を加えてpH=10とした。次にアルミン酸ナトリウム(和光純薬工業社製)の水溶液100g(顔料100部に対してAl(OH)2換算で0.5部に相当)を添加して撹拌混合した後、該懸濁液を撹拌しながら酢酸水溶液を加えてpH=6に調整した。その後すぐに濾別、水洗、乾燥して表面処理マゼンタ顔料を得た。この処理で5000ppmのアルミナをマゼンタ顔料粉末に付与することができた。同様の方法で、マゼンタ顔料の種類およびアルミン酸ナトリウムの量を表1にしたがって変更し、異なる量のアルミナが付与されたマゼンタ顔料を調製した。調製した顔料の粉末をICP-AESで測定し、Al元素量を求めてアルミナが所定量付与されたかどうかを確認した。なお、表面処理付与されていない(未処理の)マゼンタ顔料を測定すると、顔料がもとから有しているAl元素のみが定量された。
以下の成分により、マゼンタ顔料分散体1を調製した。
マゼンタ顔料1: 9.0g
光重合化合物:トリプロピレングリコールジアクリレート(東亜合成製) 32.7g
高分子分散剤:BYK Jet-9151(ビックケミージャパン(株)製) 3.2g
重合禁止剤:Irgastab UV-10(BASF製) 0.1g
その後、分散体を60℃に加熱しながら以下の光重合化合物および添加剤を加えて、活性光線硬化型インク1-1を調製した。
マゼンタ顔料分散体1:20.0g
光重合化合物:ポリエチレングリコールジアクリレート(PEGDA)(ダイセル化学製) 6.2g
光重合化合物:3PO変性トリメチロールプロパントリアクリレート(東亜合成製) 6.2g
界面活性剤:TSF-4452(信越シリコーン(株)製) 0.3g

それぞれの活性光線硬化型インクをポール(株)製 WACフィルター(0.3μm精度)でろ過した。その後、それぞれのインクをコニカミノルタインクジェットヘッド(HA512)に導入し、印字幅100mm×100mm、解像度720×720dpiの条件でベタ画像を印字した。印字基材はOKトップコート(印刷用紙)を使用した。UV照射光源として京セラ製LEDランプを使用し、250mJのエネルギーで紫外線を印字したインクに照射してインクを硬化させた。
(1)保存安定性(平均径増加量)
それぞれの活性光線硬化型インクを耐熱管に採取して、85℃で1ヶ月間高温槽に保存した。
保存前の平均粒子径と保存後の平均粒子径とをそれぞれをMalvern社製のデータサイザーナノZSPを使用して動的光散乱法によって測定した。その際、インクをポリエチレングリコールジアクリレート(PEGDA)で200倍に希釈した。保存前と保存後の測定値の差が15nm以下である場合に粒子の安定性は良好である(表2~4中、+で表記。)と判定し、測定値の差が7nm以下である場合には粒子の安定性はさらに良好である(表2~4中、++で表記。)と判定した。
Japan color2011標準試料によるMagentaベタ画像の印字濃度(100%)を測定した。標準試料のa*、b*の値と、それぞれの活性光線硬化型インクによる印字ベタ濃度を測定した色域のa*、b*の値のそれぞれの差の2乗の和の平方根を算出して、標準試料からの色域差とした。標準試料との色域差が1.5以下の場合に色域差は少ない(表2~4中、+で表記。)と判定し、色域差が1.0以下の場合には色域差はさらに少ない(表2~4中、++で表記。)と判定した。
それぞれの活性光線硬化型インクによるベタ画像の60℃反射光沢値をデジタルハンディ光沢計(堀場製作所製グロスチェッカーIG-331)で測定した。Yellow、Cyan、Blackのベタ画像の平均光沢値(40)からそれぞれの活性光線硬化型インクによるマゼンタのベタ画像の反射光沢値がどれだけ減少しているかを調べ、反射光沢値の差の絶対値が5.0以下の場合に光沢差は少ない(表2~4中、+で表記。)と判定し、反射光沢値との差の絶対値が3.0以下の場合には光沢差はさらに少ない(表2~4中、++で表記。)と判定した。
印字する際の基材の温度を50℃にしてベタ100%画像を形成し硬化させ、印字後の画像を顕微鏡(×200)で観察し、ランダムに選択した10か所の液滴径を測定した。測定した値の平均値が50μm以下の場合にピニング性は良好である(表2~4中、+で表記。)と判定し、平均値が45μm以下の場合にはピニング性は良好である(表2~4中、++で表記。)と判定した。
