Abstract: A heat-sensitive stencil master comprises a heat-sensitive polymeric film having a thickness of less than 10 &mgr;m and, coated thereon, a solid resinous foam comprising a foaming agent. The stencil master is of particular use in a digital duplicating printing process.
Abstract: An emulsion ink comprises a continuous oil phase, two or more dispersed liquid phases, one of which is a dispersed oil phase, and a solid material dispersed in the dispersed oil phase. The emulsion ink is suitable for use on a stencil or digital duplicator, and has improved rheological properties.
Abstract: A printing process including applying a composition to a substrate using a digital or stencil duplicator, the composition including a dispersion of particles of a thermoplastic or thermosetting polymer dispersed in an involatile organic liquid, where the size of the particles in the composition is less than 35 &mgr;m.
Abstract: Ink comprising a water-in-oil emulsion consisting of an aqueous phase and an oil phase and a coloring agent, wherein the oil phase comprises at least about 25% w/w of a silicone oil and an emulsifier.
