  • Publication number: 20140296395
    Abstract: A process for encapsulating pigment dispersions is provided where a pigment is dispersed with a polymeric dispersant in an aqueous solvent system. The encapsulation process is done by adding encapsulating monomers continuously or semi-continuously to the aqueous pigment dispersion. The polymerization initiator is added prior to the addition of encapsulating monomers or at the same time as the encapsulating monomers or a combination of prior and simultaneous addition. Such encapsulated pigment dispersions may be used in inkjet inks and are stable to heat, aging test conditions, and solvent challenges. Prints from these inks have excellent durability.

  • Patent number: 8575242
    Abstract: Coating of organic and inorganic pigments with acrylic resins, comprising a chemical compound consisting of particles of solid organic and inorganic substances, both defined as pigments, in that they are substances which absorb a fraction of the light and reflect the complementary part thereof, coated with acrylic and, optionally, aldehyde and/or ketone resins. The latter are deposited on the surface of the pigment by means of a process which envisages melting of the resin, consequent wetting and coating of the entire surface of the pigment with the resin in the melted state, the consequent cooling and subsequent step of grinding by means of mechanical systems operating in temperature conditions lower than 20° C., by means of cryogenic processes or granulate by means of a wet method with a water jet cutting action and separation of the granulates by the water on a vibrating screen and then dried on a spiral elevator.

  • Publication number: 20130217811
    Abstract: Aspects describe phthalocyanine (Pc) molecules with peripheral modifications of its core (e.g., alkyl substituents) so that the Pc can self assemble, for example under vacuum sublimation, and form nanocrystals of a size on the order of nanometers. The Pc nanocrystals can be prepared, for example, by a simple vapor deposition method. Further aspects describe a polymer composite ink based Pc nanocrystals in a polymer matrix, which can be formed, for example, under a solution process approach. For example, the polymer matrix can be a different p-type conjugated polymer from the Pc nanocrystals, which are inherently p-type semi-conductors. This can increase the film formation ability and charge transport properties of the polymer composite ink. The polymer composite ink can be utilized, for example, in the fabrication of optoelectronic devices, such as photovoltaic devices and/or thin film transistors. The optoelectronic devices can exhibit high power conversion efficiency (PCE), for example 6-7 percent.
