Definitions
- This invention relates to inks and more particularly to inks suitable for ink jet printing apparatus.
- Inks are generally a liquid with a dye dissolved in them. Inks are also known which comprise a liquid and particles dispersed in the ink. The actual composition of machine inks as distinct from writing inks is determined by the type of application method for such inks.
- droplets of ink are produced as a result of hydrostatic pressure on a liquid ink forcing said ink through a nozzle.
- the nozzle can be stimulated, such as by piezo-electric vibration to cause the droplets to be ejected on a regular basis.
- the droplets may be conductively and/or electro-chemically charged and subsequently pass through electrodes which provide a constant electrostatic field causing these droplets to be deflected. Therefore the required droplets are controlled to a substrate and unwanted ones are removed. Due to the charging requirements it is necessary that the ink be conductive.
- Such an ink may be water or solvent based and the colorant may be a pigment or soluble dye.
- droplets are produced only as required by the generation of a pressure disturbance within the ink adjacent to a jet nozzle.
- the application of pressure may be by stimulation caused by a piezo-electric crystal or by thermal stimulation where a micro bubble is created by an electrically resistive heater.
- Typical inks are water based and use a dye for the colorant though the use of solvents and pigments are not precluded for this process. As there is no need for droplet charging there is no specific requirement concerning conductivity of the ink.
- a further embodiment of the impulse system is hot melt ink jet technology. This process is similar to the piezo-electric drop on demand except that the ink is solid at room temperature but is maintained at an elevated temperature in the print head such that it is a liquid under operating conditions. Again therefore, there is no need for the ink's conductivity to be suited to some equipment performance standard.
- valve jet process A final system that utilises small electromechanical valves to produce droplets is known as the valve jet process. This is in essence a micro spray gun system and produces much larger droplets than the true ink jet technologies. As the droplets are produced mechanically there is no requirement concerning the conductivity of the ink.
- the preceding technologies are limited in terms of achievable resolution due to droplet formation being a function of the jet nozzle diameter.
- the smallest nozzles used have diameter in the range of 7.5 to 10 micrometers which produce droplets of the order of 14 to 20 micrometers and this translates to a dot size of 30 to 40 micrometers on selected papers.
- the inks used in these small nozzle jet printers are based on water soluble dyes, as pigment based inks cause problems with nozzle blocking. Therefore the advantages of pigment formulations, namely better waterfastness and lightfastness as well as a broader range of available colours, are precluded.
- Electrostatic ink jet is a further technology which is characterised by droplets being drawn from an orifice under the influence of an electrostatic field. This field acting between a valving electrode and the orifice, attracts free charges within the ink to its surface such that a droplet is produced when the electrostatic pull exceeds the surface tension of the ink. As this technique relies on attraction of free charges, it therefore requires that the ink be conductive.
- This present invention is in relation to an ink that can be used with the new ink jet printing technology outlined above where the ejected droplets formed are substantially solid colorant and comprise only a small amount of a liquid.
- the ink has characteristics that are essential for the concentration of the colorant material at the point of droplet ejection.
- the various inks discussed in the prior art cannot produce droplets of ink which are substantially all colorant because of the necessity of having a liquid or solvent which transfers with the colorant. Hence these arrangements have a limitation producing a high intensity marking droplet.
- the ink jet ink of the present invention also has properties that are readily utilised for the production of high resolution marking. This results in part from the intrinsically small droplets produced by the jet printer and a reduced tendency for wicking and bleeding due to the concentration of colorant particles within the droplets. It is an object of this invention to produce an ink jet ink which can give a high intensity marking or at least to provide an alternative ink for ink jet printing.
- a further object of the invention is to provide an ink jet ink that can be used for high resolution marking.
- the invention is said to reside in an ink jet ink comprising a liquid having an electrical resistance of at least 10 9 ohm.cm, and insoluble marking particles dispersed in the liquid, wherein said particles are capable of being charged and concentrated into agglomerations and ejected from the ink in an ink jet apparatus in the presence of electrostatic field of significant gradient.
- the invention may be said to reside in an ink jet ink composition
- an ink jet ink composition comprising; (a) a liquid having an electrical resistance of at least 10 9 ohm.cm,
- the liquid may be an aliphatic hydrocarbon, an aromatic hydrocarbon, a chlorinated solvent or mixture thereof, a polysiloxane or a vegetable oil.
- the marking particle may be a pigment, an insoluble dyestuff, a polymer or mixture thereof or it may be a pharmaceutical and may be present in a concentration of from 0.5% to 30% by weight , preferably 3% to 20%. It is surprising that an ink jet ink with such a high solids content can be successfully used, thereby reducing formulation and storage costs and allowing the use of smaller tanks, pumps and cartridges for a given solids content.
- the particle charging agent may be a metal soap, a fatty acid, lecithin, an organic phosphorus compound, a succinimide, a sulphosuccinate or a mixture thereof.
- the particle charging agent may be a soluble or partially soluble resin such as a modified rosin ester, an acrylic, a vinyl, a hydrocarbon or a mixture thereof.
- the particle charging agent may be present in a concentration of from 0.05% to 5% by weight and a preferred range of from 0.1% to 1% by weight.
- the present invention provides for an ink that comprises marking particles that are dispersed in a liquid which has an electrical resistance of at least 10 9 ohm.cm.
- the ink contains particle charging agents.
- the liquid may be any suitable liquid with the characteristics as discussed above and may include aliphatic hydrocarbons such as hexane, cyclohexane, iso-decane, Isopar (manufactured by Exxon) and Shellsol T (manufactured by Shell); aromatic hydrocarbons such as xylene, toluene and Solvesso 100 (manufactured by Exxon); chlorinated solvents such as diethylene chloride and chloroform; silicone fluids or oils such as dimethyl polysiloxane, for instance DC 200 (manufactured by Dow Corning) and cyclic dimethyl polysiloxane, for instance DC 345 (manufactured by Dow Corning) and vegetable oils such as olive, safflower, sunflower, soya and linseed oil.
- aliphatic hydrocarbons such as hexane, cyclohexane, iso-decane, Isopar (manufactured by Exx
- Marking particles that are insoluble in the liquid may be selected upon their particular proposed end use and may be made from a wide range of colorants, polymers and chemicals or mixtures thereof.
- colorants suitable for use in the ink are organic pigments such as pigment yellow 1 , pigment yellow 14, pigment red 48:2, pigment red 122, pigment blue 15:3 and pigment blue 56; inorganic pigments such as pigment white 6, pigment yellow 35, pigment blue 27, pigment black 7 and pigment black 11 ; solvent dyes such as solvent red 7, solvent yellow 88, solvent blue 49, basic red 1 and basic blue 26 and metallic pigments such pigment metal 1 and pigment metal 2.
- polymers suitable for use in the ink as particles are epoxy resins such as bisphenol A epoxy, novolac epoxy and cycloaliphatic epoxy; acrylic resins such as polymers and copolymers of acrylic acid and esters thereof, polymers and copolymers of methacrylic acid and esters thereof; vinyl resins such as polymers and copolymers including vinyl acetate, vinyl chloride, vinyl alcohol and vinyl butyral; alkyd resins such as oil, phenolic and rosin modified alkyds and finally modified rosin esters such as dimerised pentaerythritol rosin ester. These polymers may be dyed or include pigments dispersed therewith.
- epoxy resins such as bisphenol A epoxy, novolac epoxy and cycloaliphatic epoxy
- acrylic resins such as polymers and copolymers of acrylic acid and esters thereof, polymers and copolymers of methacrylic acid and esters thereof
- vinyl resins such as polymers and copolymers including vinyl acetate, vinyl chlor
- Examples of chemicals suitable for use as the ink particles are pharmaceuticals such as acetyl salicylic Acid, sucrose and ascorbic acid, agricultural chemicals such as copper oxychloride and elemental sulphur and industrial chemicals.
- the marking particles may be present in a concentration of from 0.5% to 30% by weight of the composition.
- resins and polymers that are soluble or partially soluble may be used to disperse the marking particles in the liquid and to function as a binder for said marking particles to a substrate.
- suitable resins include certain modified rosin esters, acrylic resins and vinyl resins that are similar to those listed above except that these have larger alkyl groups which impart the solubility in the liquid.
- hydrocarbon resins such as alpha methyl styrene and polyisobutylene are also suitable.
- the particle charging agent may be any material that is soluble or partly soluble in the liquid and that assists in the charging process.
- examples of such agents include metal salts such as lithium, cadmium, calcium, manganese and magnesium salts of heptanoic acid as well as zirconium, aluminium, cobalt and manganese salts of 2-ethyl hexanoic acid; fatty acids; lecithin; organic phosphorus compounds; succinimides; sulphosuccinates such as sodium dihexyl sulphosuccinate and sodium dioctyl sulphosuccinate and polar solvents such as alcohols, ketones and esters.
- the previously mentioned soluble polymers and resins that provide the particle dispersion and binder functions have been found to contribute to charge modification. It is important that the quantity of said agents added to the formulation does not decrease the electrical resistance of the ink beyond the limit of 10 9 ohm.cm.
- the action of such particle charging agents in the ink is not fully understood but it is believed that they assist with charging of the particles to assist with the formation of agglomerations of charged particles in the non-conductive liquid in the presence of a non-uniform electrostatic field of significant gradient on or about an ejection location.
- the particle charging agent may be present in a concentration of from 0.05% to 5% by weight of the composition.
- the ink jet ink according to the present invention may be prepared by dispersing the said marking particles and other aforementioned components into the liquid.
- a variety of processes can be employed for the preparation of the ink including ball mills, attritors, colloid mills, three- roll mills, pearl mills and high speed dispersers.
- the particles may be formed by polymerisation of the particles in the liquid.
- Examples of applications for the ink according to this invention are diverse and include office printers, component marking, magnetic ink character recognition, to mark integrated circuits, to mark glass and ceramics, to mark metals and alloys, food stuffs marking, textile printing and the making of printing plates to function as an offset master. It will be realised that the proposed end use will determine the selection of the various components.
- the ink composition of the present invention may also be used for the administration of pharmaceuticals either directly into an animal or human or onto a substrate such as an inert tablet where it is desired to apply an exact amount of the pharmaceutical. This then generally describes the invention but to assist with understanding the invention reference will now be made to examples of ink formulations.
