Definitions

  • This invention relates to a method of making an ink jet recording element, more particularly to a method of making a porous ink jet recording element.
  • ink droplets are ejected from a nozzle at high speed towards a recording element or medium to produce an image on the medium.
  • the ink droplets, or recording liquid generally comprise a recording agent, such as a dye or pigment, and a large amount of solvent.
  • the solvent, or carrier liquid typically is made up of water and an organic material such as a monohydric alcohol, a polyhydric alcohol or mixtures thereof.
  • An ink jet recording element typically comprises a support having on at least one surface thereof an ink-receiving or image-receiving layer, and includes those intended for reflection viewing, which have an opaque support, and those intended for viewing by transmitted light, which have a transparent support.
  • porous recording elements have been developed which provide nearly instantaneous drying as long as they have sufficient thickness and pore volume to effectively contain the liquid ink.
  • a porous recording element can be manufactured by cast coating, in which a particulate-containing coating is applied to a support and is dried in contact with a polished smooth surface.
  • U.S. Patent 5,932,355 relates to an ink-jet recording sheet wherein the ink-receptive composition contains a non-ionic silicone surfactant, from about 14 to 93 % by weight of a polymer and a small amount of particulates such that the coating is transparent.
  • a non-ionic silicone surfactant from about 14 to 93 % by weight of a polymer and a small amount of particulates such that the coating is transparent.
  • this element there is a problem with this element in that it is not porous, so that it has a poor dry time.
  • U.S. Patent 5,919,559 relates to an inkjet recording sheet comprising an ink absorbing layer containing a predominant amount of water soluble resin or water dispersible resin and an nonionic surfactant having an HLB number of 11 or more.
  • an inkjet recording sheet comprising an ink absorbing layer containing a predominant amount of water soluble resin or water dispersible resin and an nonionic surfactant having an HLB number of 11 or more.
  • JP-A-60171190 discloses an inkjet recording paper wherein a coated layer on a base comprises a nonionic surface active agent having an HLB value of 4-10, without reference to the ratio of particles to binder and surfactant.
  • an inkjet recording element comprising a support having thereon a porous image-receiving layer comprising at least 90% by weight of particles and less than 10% by weight of a binder, the improvement comprising coating the image-receiving layer over the support using a coating composition for the image-receiving layer that, in addition to particles and binder, also contains a nonionic surfactant having an HLB number of less than 10 in an amount in the coating composition of from 0.05% to 1.0% by weight.
  • a porous ink jet recording element which has a fast dry time and good image quality.
  • the presence of a binder in an image-receiving layer coating solution increases its propensity to foam.
  • the coating solution typically requires a large amount of agitation to minimize the concentration gradients of the ingredients and thereby reduce variability. This agitation, however, typically leads to entrainment of air, which leads to the formation of excessive foam.
  • non-ionic surfactants have been found to be antifoaming agents.
  • these materials do not themselves foam at low concentrations.
  • the non-ionic surfactants which are used in this invention have an HLB number less than 10.
  • the HLB number of a surfactant is used to specify the nature of an oil/water dispersion that is formed in the presence of that surfactant. If the HLB number is less than 7, the dispersed (or drop) phase will be water. If the HLB number is above 12, the dispersed phase will be oil.
  • the HLB number can also be used to predict the ability of a nonionic surfactant to eliminate foam in a coating solution. If a surfactant has an HLB number of 10 or greater, the surfactant may enhance the stability of the foam instead of eliminating it.
  • the HLB number of surfactants can be measured or calculated. There are several methods of measuring HLB, some of which are listed in “Nonionic Surfactants”, Ed. M. Schick, “Surfactant Science Series”, Vol. 1, Marcel Deker Inc., New York, 1967.
  • nonionic surfactants there are several kinds of nonionic surfactants that can be used in the present invention.
  • ethoxylated alcohols having the formula R-O(CH 2 CH 2 O) n H where R can be alkyl, aryl or aralkyl having from 2 to 30 carbon atoms and n can vary from 2 to 20.
  • the HLB number of an ethoxylated alcohol is related to the ratio of the number of ethylene oxide groups to the number of carbon atoms in the R group.
  • Preferred ethoxylated alcohols useful in the invention include those where all or some of the hydrogen atoms in the R group are substituted by fluorine atoms.
  • nonionic surfactants useful in the invention is the block copolymers of ethylene oxide and propylene oxide.
  • Pluronics ® polyxamers
  • Tetronics® polyoxamines
  • the ratio of the amount of propylene oxide to ethylene oxide is directly related to the HLB number of the surfactant.
  • Nonionic surfactants useful in the invention is alkoxylated poly(dimethylsiloxanes) (PDMS) or polyalkylene-modified PDMS materials, including those containing ethylene oxide as well as ethylene oxide and propylene oxide and having an HLB number as described above.
  • PDMS poly(dimethylsiloxanes)
  • polyalkylene-modified PDMS materials including those containing ethylene oxide as well as ethylene oxide and propylene oxide and having an HLB number as described above.
  • nonionic surfactants useful in the invention is based on derivatives of mono and disaccharides, including sorbitol esters such as Spans®, and alkyl glucosides and hydrophobic sucrose esters such as sucrose distearate.
  • surfactants useful in the invention include: S-1 Silwet® L7220 (Witco Corp.) S-2 Silwet® L7210 (Witco Corp.) S-3 Silwet® L7602 (Witco Corp.) S-4 Pluronic ® L61 (BASF Corp.)

  • the surfactants used in the present invention are typically used in relatively small amounts. Based on their HLB numbers, these surfactants have limited solubility in coating solutions. These surfactants have a cloud point, which is the highest temperature at which the surfactant is soluble in water. Coating operations typically take place between 25 and 30°C. Therefore, these surfactants are usually used at levels below their solubility limit at the operating temperature.
  • particles useful in the invention include alumina, boehmite, clay, calcium carbonate, titanium dioxide, calcined clay, aluminosilicates, silica, barium sulfate, or polymeric beads.
  • the particles may be porous or nonporous.
  • the particles are inorganic such as alumina, silica, fumed alumina or fumed silica.
  • Such particles are preferred for ink jet recording elements because they possess positively charged surfaces, which are capable of binding anionic ink jet printing dyes, rendering printed images resistant to dye migration due to water and high humidity conditions.
  • the porous image-receiving layer comprises at least 90% by weight of particles. This amount of particles will insure that the layer is porous, i.e., have interconnecting voids so that the solvent in the ink can travel through the layer to a support or base layer if one is present. In a preferred embodiment, the porous image-receiving layer comprises at least 90-95% by weight of particles.
  • any binder may be used in the invention.
  • the binder is a hydrophilic polymer such as poly(vinyl alcohol), poly(vinyl pyrrolidone), gelatin, cellulose ethers, poly(oxazolines), poly(vinylacetamides), partially hydrolyzed poly(vinyl acetate/vinyl alcohol), poly(acrylic acid), poly(acrylamide), poly(alkylene oxide), sulfonated or phosphated polyesters and polystyrenes, casein, zein, albumin, chitin, chitosan, dextran, pectin, collagen derivatives, collodian, agar-agar, arrowroot, guar, carrageenan, tragacanth, xanthan, rhamsan and the like.
  • the hydrophilic polymer is poly(vinyl alcohol), hydroxypropyl cellulose, hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose, gelatin, or a poly(alkylene oxide).
  • the hydrophilic binder is poly(vinyl alcohol). The polymeric binder should be chosen so that it is compatible with the aforementioned particles.
  • the amount of binder used in the invention should be sufficient to impart cohesive strength to the ink jet recording element, but should also be minimized so that the interconnected pore structure formed by the particles is not filled in by the binder.
  • the amount of binder employed is less than 10% by weight, preferably 5-10 % by weight.
  • the thickness of the image-receiving layer may range from 5 to 40 ⁇ m, preferably from 10 to 20 ⁇ m.
  • the coating thickness required is determined through the need for the coating to act as a sump for absorption of ink solvent and the need to hold the ink near the coating surface.
  • the coating may be applied in a single layer or in multiple layers so the functionality of each coating layer may be specified. For example, a two-layer structure can be created wherein the base layer functions as a sump for absorption of ink solvent while the top layer holds the ink.
  • the nonionic surfactant and particles are used in both layers, i.e., the base layer contains at least 90% by weight of particles and less than 10% by weight of a binder, and the base layer also contains a nonionic surfactant having an HLB number of less than 10 in an amount to substantially prevent foaming of the coating composition which is used to coat the support with the base layer.
  • the ink jet recording element may be subject to calendering or supercalendering to enhance surface smoothness.
  • the ink jet recording element is subject to hot, softnip calendering at a temperature of 65 °C and pressure of 14000 kg/m at a speed of from 0.15 m/s to 0.3 m/s.

  • Opaque supports include plain paper, coated paper, synthetic paper, photographic paper support, melt-extrusion-coated paper, and laminated paper, such as biaxially oriented support laminates. Biaxially oriented support laminates are described in U.S.
  • biaxially oriented supports include a paper base and a biaxially oriented polyolefin sheet, typically polypropylene, laminated to one or both sides of the paper base.
  • Transparent supports include glass, cellulose derivatives, e.g., a cellulose ester, cellulose triacetate, cellulose diacetate, cellulose acetate propionate, cellulose acetate butyrate; polyesters, such as poly(ethylene terephthalate), poly(ethylene naphthalate), poly(1,4-cyclohexanedimethylene terephthalate), poly(butylene terephthalate), and copolymers thereof; polyimides; polyamides; polycarbonates; polystyrene; polyolefins, such as polyethylene or polypropylene; polysulfones; polyacrylates; polyetherimides; and mixtures thereof.
  • the papers listed above include a broad range of papers, from high end papers, such as photographic paper to low end papers, such as newsprint.
  • the support used in the invention may have a thickness of from 50 to 500 ⁇ m, preferably from 75 to 300 ⁇ m.
  • Antioxidants, antistatic agents, plasticizers and other known additives may be incorporated into the support, if desired.
  • Coating compositions employed in the invention may be applied by any number of well known techniques, including dip-coating, wound-wire rod coating, doctor blade coating, gravure and reverse-roll coating, slide coating, bead coating, extrusion coating, curtain coating and the like.
  • Known coating and drying methods are described in further detail in Research Disclosure no. 308119, published Dec. 1989, pages 1007 to 1008.
  • Slide coating is preferred, in which the base layers and overcoat may be simultaneously applied. After coating, the layers are generally dried by simple evaporation, which may be accelerated by known techniques such as convection heating.
  • crosslinkers which act upon the binder discussed above may be added in small quantities. Such an additive improves the cohesive strength of the layer.
  • Crosslinkers such as carbodiimides, polyfunctional aziridines, aldehydes, isocyanates, epoxides, polyvalent metal cations, and the like may all be used.
  • UV absorbers may also be added to the image-receiving layer as is well known in the art.
  • Other additives include adhesion promoters, rheology modifiers, biocides, lubricants, dyes, optical brighteners, matte agents, antistatic agents, etc.
