  • Recording sheets for ink jet printing
    Patent number: 7927675
    Abstract: A recording sheet for ink jet printing is provided, which consists of a support having coated thereon at least one ink-receiving layer consisting of binders and at least one nanoporous inorganic compound, wherein the recording sheet contains a polynuclear aluminum hydroxo complex with 30 aluminum atoms. In a preferred embodiment, the surface of the nanoporous inorganic compound is modified by a treatment with the aluminum hydroxo complex with 30 aluminum atoms.
    Type: Grant
