Patent number: 10844236Abstract: An example of a liquid bonding agent, for a liquid ink including a wax emulsion in an amount less than 1% actives, includes a calcium salt, the wax emulsion, an acetylenic surfactant, a glycol, and a balance of water. The wax emulsion is present in the liquid bonding agent in an amount ranging from greater than 0% actives to about 2% actives. The liquid bonding agent is to be digitally printed with a thermal inkjet printhead on a substrate under the liquid ink.Type: GrantFiled: July 20, 2016Date of Patent: November 24, 2020Assignee: Hewlett-Packard Development Company, L.P.Inventors: Max Yen, Yi-Hua Tsao, Marisa Weaver, Elizabeth Ann Visnyak, Jessica Rikki Vosler, Jon A. Crabtree, George Sarkisian, Yubai Bi, Maria Alexeevna Kabalnova
