  • Patent number: 9512031
    Abstract: A digital glaze for high grammage, without the use of anti-settling agents, referred to as digital glazes for digital inkjet printing techniques to apply high grammage, maintaining the same aesthetic and technical characteristics obtained with traditional glazes and non-digital application techniques. No anti-settling agents are used in the composition to prevent the digital glaze from being thixotropic and creating problems in the inkjet printing. The composition includes at least one medium that is liquid at ambient temperature, formed by a mixture of water and polar solvents and/or solvents of medium to low polarity, having a percentage by weight of between 20 and 70% of the total weight of the digital glaze; and at least one mixture of ceramic raw materials and/or frits as a glaze-forming material, having a percentage by weight of between 30 and 80% of the total weight of the digital glaze.

  • Publication number: 20150291841
    Abstract: Digital glaze composition for ceramic supports comprising, at least one water-free solvent formed by a mixture of polar and/or non-polar or low-polarity solvents as a vehicle that is liquid at room temperature, at least one mixture of inorganic particles of frits and/or raw materials, without the use of inorganic pigment particles, as a glazing-forming material and, at least one dispersant. All prepared in such a way that the physical properties of the digital glaze such as particle size, viscosity, surface tension, sedimentation speed and sintering and softening temperatures, are suitable for achieving the necessary final base finishing quality with the required weights. The special composition of the digital glaze also allows the use thereof as ink for decoration and ink for protection.
