Abstract
The present invention relates to colorant preparations comprising a) at least one colorant in particulate form, b) at least one organic solvent having a boiling point of at least 247° C., measured at atmospheric pressure, and c) water, and less than 0.25% by weight of organic solvents having a boiling point below 247° C., measured at atmospheric pressure
Description
- The present invention relates to colorant preparations comprising
- a) at least one colorant in particulate form,
- b) at least one organic solvent having a boiling point of at least 247° C., measured at atmospheric pressure, and
- c) water,
and less than 0.25% by weight of
organic solvents having a boiling point below 247° C., measured at atmospheric pressure. - Colorant preparations and especially inks which are used in the ink jet process (such as Thermal Ink Jet, Piezo Ink Jet, Continuous Ink Jet, Valve Jet, transfer printing processes) have to meet a whole series of requirements: They have to have viscosity and surface tension suitable for printing, they have to be stable in storage, i.e., they should not coagulate or flocculate, and they must not lead to cloggage of printer nozzles, which can be problematical especially in the case of inks comprising dispersed, i.e., undissolved, colorant particles. Stability in storage further requires of these inks that the dispersed colorant particles do not sediment. Furthermore, in the case of Continuous Ink Jet, the inks shall be stable to the addition of conducting salts and be free from any tendency to floc out with an increase in the ion content. In addition, the prints obtained have to meet colorists' requirements, i.e., show high brilliance and depth of shade, and have good fastnesses, for example rubfastness, lightfastness, waterfastness and wet rubfastness, if necessary after aftertreatment such as fixation for example, and good drying characteristics.
- It is a further requirement that the inks dry rapidly on the substrate in order that images or characters to be printed do not bleed and for example the ink droplets of different colors do not mingle. The production of needle-sharp prints requires in this connection not only print dry time minimization but also bleed control for the ink droplets on the substrate during the print dry time. An ink where the droplets do not bleed is said to have good holdout. Prior art ink holdout or print definition leaves something to be desired.
- U.S. Pat. No. 5,141,556 discloses aqueous inks and their use in ink jet printing which comprise a dye or a dispersed pigment and also, as a component c), hexene-1,2-diol or an aliphatic 1,2-diol or 1,3-diol, with branched 1,2-diols being preferred. However, the inks still leave room for improvement.
- EP 0 649 888 describes ink compositions for the ink jet printing process which, as well as water and a soluble dye, comprise propylene glycol mono-n-butyl ether and/or dipropylene glycol mono-n-butyl ether and also some other water-soluble butyl ether. The inks thus obtainable produce good images on recycled paper; however, ink droplet holdout on less absorbent materials is unsatisfactory.
- EP-A 0 514 159 discloses aqueous inks which comprise soluble dyes and a selection of organic solvents. The inks described in EP-A 0 514 159 likewise leave room for improvement.
- It is an object of the present invention to provide colorant preparations and especially inks for the ink jet process which do not have the disadvantages mentioned above. It is a further object of the present invention to provide a process for producing improved colorant preparations. It is a further object of the present invention to provide printed substrates.
- We have found that the first object is achieved by the colorant preparations defined at the beginning.
- The inventive colorant preparations comprise colorants in particulate form a), for example pigments or disperse dyes. Pigments for the purposes of the present invention are virtually insoluble, finely dispersed, organic or inorganic colorants as per the definition in German standard specification DIN 55944.
