[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Technical Field] The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing a recording material (recording paper) used in an inkjet recording method, and in particular to a method for manufacturing a recording material (recording paper) used in an inkjet recording method, and in particular, a method for manufacturing a recording material (recording paper) used in an inkjet recording method. The present invention relates to a method of manufacturing a recording material. [Prior Art] Methods of recording using recording liquid have been common for a long time, such as writing with a fountain pen, but recently, so-called inkjet recording methods have also appeared, and recording liquid is also used here. There is. The inkjet recording method generates small droplets of recording liquid using various operating principles, and performs recording by flying these droplets and adhering them to a recording material such as paper, but it generates little noise and can print at high speed. , is attracting attention as a recording method that allows multicolor printing. Water-based recording liquids are mainly used for inkjet recording in view of safety and printability. As the recording material used in this inkjet recording method, conventional paper has generally been used. However, as the performance of inkjet recording machines improves, such as faster recording and multicolor recording, recording materials for inkjet recording are increasingly required to have more advanced characteristics. In other words, in order to obtain high-resolution, high-quality recorded images, the recording material for inkjet recording must (1) absorb ink as quickly as possible, and (2) absorb (3) The diameter of the ink dot should not be larger than necessary; (4) The shape of the ink dot should be close to a perfect circle, and the surrounding area should be smooth. 5) It is necessary that the ink dots have a high density and that the area around the dots does not become blurred, satisfying the required performance. Furthermore, in order to obtain a recorded image quality comparable to that of a color photograph using a multicolor inkjet recording method, in addition to the above-mentioned performance requirements, (6) high whiteness, and (7) excellent color development of the coloring components of the ink are required. (8) The ink absorbency is particularly excellent because the same number of small ink droplets as the number of ink colors may adhere to the same location in layers. required. As inkjet recording paper having a special structure, those described in Japanese Patent Application Laid-open No. 52-9074, Japanese Patent Application Laid-open No. 52-53012, Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 52-74304, Japanese Patent Application Laid-open No. 55-5830 are known. However, the reality is that a recording material that satisfies all of the above required performances has not yet been found. For example, the inkjet recording paper described in JP-A-52-74304 absorbs ink quickly, but the dot diameter tends to be large, the dot periphery tends to blur, and the size of the paper changes after recording. It has the disadvantage of being large. [Object of the Invention] An object of the present invention is to provide a method for producing a recording material for full-color inkjet recording that satisfies the above-mentioned requirements and has particularly excellent clarity of recorded images and excellent color development. There is a particular thing. The above and other objects are achieved by the present invention as follows. [Disclosure of the Invention] That is, the present invention provides a method for producing a recording material for inkjet recording in which an ink receiving layer is provided on a support, in which a porous resin layer in which fine communicating holes are formed in a resin matrix is provided in the receiving layer. The ink absorption capacity of the recording material is set to 1.0.
This is a method for manufacturing a recording material for inkjet recording, characterized in that the inkjet recording material is adjusted to a range of ×10 -2 μ/mm 2 to 3.2×10 -2 μ/mm 2 . The ink absorption capacity defined in the present invention is a value determined based on the following measurement method. That is, from an inkjet recording machine equipped with ten or more nozzles each having a nozzle diameter of 50 μm at an interval of 8 nozzles/mm, ink droplets with a diameter of about 65 μm are continuously ejected and adhered to a recording material. At this time, the recording material is moved relative to the inkjet recording head, and the moving speed is changed to change the amount of ink adhesion per unit area. Next, blotting paper is pressed against the recording material to which the ink has adhered one second later, and the maximum amount of ink at which the ink does not transfer to the blotting paper is defined as the ink absorption capacity. The ink used in measuring the ink absorption capacity is prepared by dissolving 2 parts by weight of a dye in a mixed solvent consisting of 70 parts by weight of diethylene glycol and 70 parts by weight of water. When the ink absorption capacity of paper with a conventionally available coating layer such as art coated paper is measured using the above measurement method, the ink absorption capacity is 5.0×10 -3 μ/
If the value is less than mm 2 and a color image is recorded using a color inkjet recording machine, the attached ink will flow out or the recording device and the paper surface will be contaminated by the ink that remains on the paper surface. On the other hand, plain paper without an ink-receiving layer
Some have an ink absorption capacity as high as 5.0×10 -2 μ/mm 2 , but the ink bleeds significantly, the shape of the printed dots is poor, and furthermore, when a color image is recorded, the image clarity is low. In order to eliminate such drawbacks of conventional recording materials, the recording material should have an ink-receiving layer, and the recording material should have an ink-receiving layer of 1.0×10 -2 μ/mm 2 to 3.2
It has been found that it is sufficient to have an ink absorption capacity in the range of ×10 −2 μ/mm 2 . At this time, if the ink absorption capacity of the recording material exceeds the above upper limit, the degree of bleeding of the applied ink tends to increase and the shape of the ink dots also tends to deteriorate. Furthermore, it is more preferable that the ink-receiving layer alone has the above-mentioned ink absorption capacity. The ink absorption capacity of the ink-receiving layer alone can be determined by providing the ink-receiving layer on a support that has no ink-absorbing properties, such as glass or resin film, and measuring its ink absorption capacity according to the method described above. Its approximate value can be obtained. As the support that can be used in the method of the present invention for forming the recording material, it is appropriate to use paper, but porous materials such as cloth, porous resin, wood, etc., resin, metal, glass, etc. Non-porous materials can also be used, and the choice of which one to use depends on the recording purpose and use. On the other hand, in the method of the present invention, the ink-receiving layer provided on the support is made of a porous resin in which fine communicating pores are formed. As the raw material resin for forming the ink receiving layer, any water-soluble or organic solvent-soluble resin that can be used to form a film can be used. For example, as a water-soluble resin,
Examples include polyvinyl alcohol, starch, casein, gum arabic, gelatin, polyacrylamide, carboxymethyl cellulose, sodium polyacrylate, sodium alginate, etc. Organic solvent-soluble resins include polyvinyl chloride, polyvinyl acetate, polyacrylonitrile, polymethyl methacrylate, Examples include polyvinyl formal, melamine resin, polyamide resin, phenolic resin, polyurethane resin, and alkyd resin. Note that when a water-soluble resin is used, problems such as deformation due to moisture absorption and an excessive amount of ink bleed through may occur, so the porous resin layer may be further subjected to a water-resistant treatment. In the present invention, the method for producing a porous resin layer (ink-receiving layer) using the above-mentioned resin is as follows: (1) A substance that foams when exposed to heat or light is added to the resin, kneaded, and then molded (film-formed). (2) Molding a resin in which fine particles of water-soluble inorganic salts (e.g., sodium chloride) are dispersed. (3) Zeolites, silica, diatomaceous earth, etc. in the resin; (3) zeolites, silica, diatomaceous earth, etc. There is a method in which after molding (film formation) a material in which fine particles are dispersed, the fine particles are eluted by immersion in an acidic aqueous solution to form fine communicating pores in the resin matrix. Incidentally, when employing method (2) or (3), any resin may be used as long as it is not dissolved in at least an aqueous solution or an acidic aqueous solution. For reference, examples of resins suitable for these methods include polyvinyl chloride, polystyrene, polyacrylonitrile, polyvinyl acetate, cellulose acetate, polyvinyl butyral, acrylic resin,
Examples include polyamide resin, styrene-butadiene latex, alkyd resin, polyvinyl alcohol, polyester resin, and copolymers thereof. Furthermore, plasticizers for these resins can also be added, examples of which include dibutyl phthalate, dioctyl adipate, polyethylene glycol, chlorinated paraffin, and the like. The porous resin layer formed in this way has
A large number of holes are randomly arranged three-dimensionally in close proximity to each other, and here the plurality of holes communicate with each other to form a communicating hole.
In the present invention, this communication hole allows 1.0×10 -2 μ/
It becomes possible to achieve an ink absorption capacity of mm 2 or more. The size (pore diameter) of these communication holes is preferably such that capillary force acts on them, and is set in the range of several hundred angstroms to several microns. Further, the formation of the communication hole is not particularly limited. In the present invention, the size, shape, etc. of these communication holes can be changed arbitrarily within almost the above range by adjusting and controlling the manufacturing and processing conditions after film formation of the resin matrix before making it porous. be able to. [Effects of the present invention] A recording material having an ink-receiving layer on a support obtained by the method of the present invention and having an ink-absorbing capacity value of a specific value or more can be used for recording liquids of different colors. Even if the recording liquid adheres to the same spot repeatedly within a short period of time, there is no phenomenon of the recording liquid flowing out or seeping out.
It provides clear images with high resolution. Furthermore, it exhibits excellent color development properties and is suitable as a recording material for inkjet recording when performing full-color recording. [Examples] Hereinafter, the present invention will be explained in more detail with reference to Examples. Example 1 100 parts by weight of a 10% by weight aqueous solution of polyvinyl alcohol and 30 parts by weight of 13X type zeolite (Molecular Sub 13X manufactured by UCC Corporation, average particle size: 10 μm) powder were mixed and pulverized using a sand mill. The resulting mixture was coated using a coating rod.
It was applied to a thickness of 40 μm on a 100 μm thick polyethylene terephthalate film and dried. This film was immersed for 2 minutes in a citric acid aqueous solution adjusted to pH 3, washed with water, and dried to obtain a porous film sheet. Comparative Example 1 A commercially available general printing paper, Ginkan (trade name, manufactured by Sanyo Kokusaku Pulp Co., Ltd.) was used as a recording material as it was. Comparative Example 2 A commercially available general printing paper, SK Coat (trade name, manufactured by Sanyo Kokusaku Pulp Co., Ltd.) was used as a recording material as it was. Reference Example Color inkjet recording was performed using the above four color inks on the three types of recording materials obtained in the above Examples and Comparative Examples, and the recording characteristics were evaluated. Yellow ink (composition) CI acid yellow 23 2 parts by weight diethylene glycol 30 〃 Water 70 〃 Magenta ink (composition) CI acid red 92 2 parts by weight diethylene glycol 30 〃 water 70 〃 Cyan ink (composition) CI Direct Blue 86 2 parts by weight diethylene glycol 30 〃 Water 70 〃 Black ink (composition) CI Direct Black 19 2 parts by weight diethylene glycol 30 〃 Water 70 〃 Table 1 shows the evaluation results of recording characteristics for each recording material. Note that the recording characteristics were evaluated based on the following criteria. (1) Ink absorption capacity uses an on-demand ink jet recording head that ejects ink using a piezo vibrating element (discharge orifice diameter 50 μm, orifice installation width 24/3 mm, piezo vibrating element drive voltage 60 V, frequency 1 KHz). and measured according to the previous definition. (2) Dot density was measured using Sakura Microdensidometer PMD-5 (manufactured by Konishiroku Photo Industry Co., Ltd.). (3) The shape of the dots was determined by observing the printed dots with a stereomicroscope, and marking the dots almost circular as ○, the ones that were slightly out of shape as △, and the irregularly shaped dots as ×. (4) The degree of bleeding was determined by measuring the diameter of the printed dot using a stereomicroscope, and expressed by how many times larger the diameter of the printed dot was than that of the ink droplet. (5) Color clarity is determined by visually comparing the color clarity of the inkjet recorded images, with the best one being ◎ and the worst one being ×, ◎, ○, △, ×
We ranked them by rank. In Table 1, the color of the ink used in the evaluation is shown in parentheses in the evaluation column for each recording characteristic. 【table】
