  • Patent number: 9624402
    Abstract: The method is a non-aqueous inkjet printing method including the steps of: ejecting droplets of a non-aqueous pigment ink containing at least a pigment and a non-aqueous solvent onto a surface of a printing medium to form dots composed of the non-aqueous pigment ink, and then ejecting droplets of a non-aqueous post-treatment liquid containing at least silica and an organic solvent toward the printing medium so that the droplets overlap with the dots composed of the non-aqueous pigment ink, wherein either of the non-aqueous pigment ink and the post-treatment liquid contains a water-soluble resin having an amino group.

  • Patent number: 8592502
    Abstract: A non-aqueous ink composition for inkjet printing is provided, which comprises 0.01 to 10 wt % of at least one ionic substance (A) selected from the group consisting of quarterly ammonium salts, quarterly phosphonium salts, a combination of a fatty acid and/or an alkyl phosphate with an amine compound, and synergists, 0.1 to 20 wt % of an C12-25 alkyl(meth)acrylate copolymer (B) having 1 to 40 wt %, relative to a weight of the copolymer, of urethane moiety, 0.1 to 20 wt % of a pigment (C), and an organic solvent (D). The composition achieves excellent wiping durability and printed image density.
