Abstract: Provided is an inkjet pigment ink which contains a pigment that is selected from the group consisting of C.L. Pigment Yellow 74 having a transmittance of 70% or more, C.I. Pigment Red 269 having a transmittance of 70% or more, C.I. Pigment Red 122 having a transmittance of less than 70% and C.I. Pigment Yellow 150; a water-soluble solvent that is selected from the group consisting of glycol ethers and diols; water; and a pigment dispersing resin that is a copolymer which contains a monomer A, a monomer B and a monomer C as unit components. The monomer A is an alkyl (meth)acrylate ester; the monomer B is styrene, ?-methyl styrene or benzyl (meth)acrylate; and the monomer C is (meth)acrylic acid.

Abstract: An aqueous inkjet ink composition comprising a pigment, a pigment-dispersing resin, resin fine particles (A), water, and hydrophilic solvents (B), the resin fine particles (A) being formed by emulsion polymerizing ethylenically unsaturated monomers including: 20% to 80% by weight of an aromatic ethylenically unsaturated monomer (C) that does not have an ionic functional group; 0.6% to 6% by weight of water-soluble ethylenically unsaturated monomers (F) consisting of 0.5% to 3% by weight of a sulfonic acid group-containing ethylenically unsaturated monomer (D) and 0.1% to 3% by weight of a nonionic water-soluble ethylenically unsaturated monomer (E); and 0.1% to 10% by weight of a crosslinkable ethylenically unsaturated monomer (G), and the hydrophilic solvents (B) including a glycol-based solvent (H) and an ethylene glycol ether-based solvent (I) is provided.

Abstract: A curable coating composition comprising a polymer of an aromatic vinyl compound and an &agr;,&bgr;-unsaturated carboxylic acid ester; a vegetable oil or a fatty acid ester thereof; and a (metha) acrylic monomer or (metha) acrylic oligomer, and a printing method thereof are disclosed. A printing ink utilizing the curable coating composition of the present invention can be printed with a printing machine used for oil-based inks. At the same time, if in combination with an activation energy beam curable overprint varnish, glossy printed matters having aesthetically high-grade feeling can be obtained.

Abstract: An aqueous dispersion of an aqueous polyurethane having an ionic functional group, polyoxyethylene units and terminal hydrazine functional groups is provided. Content of the ionic functional group is about 5 to about 180 milliequivalent per 100 g of the aqueous polyurethane, and content of the polyoxyethylene unit is about 20% by weight or less of a weight of the aqueous polyurethane. The aqueous dispersion is used for a composition for ink, coating or adhesive. Storage stability, water resistance, pigment dispersibility, and adhesion to various kinds of substrates, particularly non-polar substrates, of the aqueous dispersion and the composition are excellent.

Abstract: Four channels of group 3 facsimile signal are transmitted through a digital transmission line of Bearer rate 64 Kbits/s for a speech signal. A facsimile signal is separated into a tone signal, a binary control signal, and a picture signal, each converted to digital form. Then, a block having 160 bits is assembled including 96 data bits and some control bits, and a justification bit. A justification bit matches clock rate of the present system with clock rate of an external digital transmission line by deleting or inserting one bit in a block. Thus, a conventional group 3 facsimile device is coupled with 16 Kbits/s digital transmission line with no design change for the facsimile device itself.
