Abstract: Formulations comprising novel porous metal oxide particles and binder are particularly suitable for ink receptive coatings, e.g., for ink jet papers and films. The metal oxide particles used in this application have a porous structure that differs significantly from the nonporous silica colloids. The particles have a median particle size in the range of about 0.05 to about 3 microns and porosity such that when an aqueous dispersion of the particles is dried at least 0.5 cc/g of pore volume is from pores having a pore size of 600 ? or less. The particles also have a viscosity derived pore volume of at least 0.5 cc/g.

Abstract: The coating composition comprises inorganic oxide, e.g., silica, in combination with a binder system comprising a mixture of a water soluble polymer and non-ionic latex polymer. The composition may contain optional dye mordant (e.g., cationic polymer). It is found that the combinations of these components result in relatively high solids formulations (e.g., greater than 20% by weight) with relatively low viscosity (less than 5000 centipose), do not exhibit coating dusting, and give exceptional ink-jet printability. These formulations are especially suitable for preparing on-line formulations because they can be formulated to have a viscosity less than 2000 centipose. Preferable embodiments for online coatings have a viscosity less than 1000 centipose.

Abstract: A dispersion comprising fine porous inorganic oxide particles, e.g., silica gel particles, wherein the particles have a median particle size below three microns. The dispersed particles have a porosity after drying in which at least about 0.50 cc/g of pore volume is from pores having a pore size of 600 Å or less as determined by nitrogen porosimetry. Embodiments prepared from silica gel have porosity after drying in which at least about 0.7 cc/g of pore volume is from pores having a diameter of 600 Å or smaller. The particles of the dispersion also can be described as having viscosity derived pore volume of at least about 0.5 g/cc. The dispersion is prepared by forming a dispersion from inorganic oxides having sufficient rigid structure to maintain porosity after milling and drying. After the inorganic oxide is selected, it is milled to have a median particle size of 0.05 to about 3 microns.
