  • Publication number: 20250115778
    Abstract: In example implementations, a three-dimensional printing kit for printing a colorless three-dimensional object in a three-dimensional printing system is provided. The three-dimensional printing kit includes a build material and an aqueous ultraviolet (UV) fusing agent. The aqueous UV fusing agent includes water in greater than 50 weight percent of the aqueous UV fusing agent and a UV absorber cyclodextrin complex.

  • Publication number: 20250100213
    Abstract: In example implementations, a three-dimensional printing kit for printing a three-dimensional object in a three-dimensional printing system is provided. The three-dimensional printing kit includes a build material, a first colored fusing agent, and a second colored fusing agent. The first colored fusing agent includes water, a first solvent to provide a polymer plasticizer, a second solvent that is water miscible, a colored visible light absorber that absorbs a visible wavelength of light, wherein the colored visible light absorber comprises less than 3 weight percent of the first colored fusing agent, and a first colored dye. The second colored fusing agent includes water, the first solvent, the second solvent, the colored visible light absorber, and a second colored dye.

  • Publication number: 20250100214
    Abstract: In example implementations, a three-dimensional printing kit for printing a colorless three-dimensional object in a three-dimensional printing system is provided. The three-dimensional printing kit includes a build material and an ultraviolet (UV) fusing agent. The UV fusing agent includes water, a UV light absorber, about 10-50 weight percent (wt %) of a first solvent to provide a polymer plasticizer, and about 30-50 wt % a second solvent that is water miscible and dissolves the UV light absorber.

  • Publication number: 20250033275
    Abstract: Examples of the present disclosure are directed toward fusing agent compositions. An example fusing agent composition includes a radiation absorber, a co-solvent mixture, and a balance of water. In various examples, the radiation absorber is present in an amount ranging from about 0.005 weight percent (wt %) to about 1.0 wt % of a total weight of the fusing agent composition, wherein the radiation absorber absorbs radiation at a wavelength range within the visible light spectrum.

  • Patent number: 11858286
    Abstract: A printable recording media that comprises a base substrate with an image-side and a back-side and a coating composition comprising, at least, particles of metallic salt of C8-C30 alkyl acid chain or alkyl ester chain having a mean particle size (D50) above 3 ?m and having about 99.5% of the particle size distribution which is less than 80 ?m, inorganic pigment particles and/or mixture inorganic particles, and polymeric binders and/or mixture of polymeric binders, is applied to the image-side of the base substrate. Also described herein are a method for forming the printable recording media and a printing method that includes ejecting an ink composition onto the print media described herein.

  • Patent number: 10792935
    Abstract: In one example of the disclosure, a print agent is applied upon a length of web substrate. A dryer is utilized to dry the web substrate length. Moisture is applied to the web substrate length. The moisturized web substrate length is wound upon a spool to form a top liner length, with no dryer to be utilized to dry the web substrate length between the moisture application and the winding.
