  • Patent number: 9365735
    Abstract: In a non-aqueous pigment ink that includes pigment, a non-aqueous solvent, and a non-aqueous resin that functions to disperse pigment dissolved in the non-aqueous solvent, the non-aqueous solvent includes a hydrocarbon based non polar solvent at 50% by mass or more with respect to the total amount of solvent. The non-aqueous resin is an acrylic polymer having a comb shaped structure, in which alkyl groups having carbon numbers from 8 to 18 and urethane groups form side chains on a (meth)acrylate main chain. The acrylic polymer is a copolymer of an alkyl(meth)acrylate (A) having alkyl groups with a carbon number from 8 to 18, a reactive (meth)acrylate (B) having functional groups that react with amino groups, and a monomer (C) having ?-diketone groups or ?-keto acid ester groups, into which the urethane groups are introduced by reactions between the functional groups that react with amino groups, amino alcohol, and a multivalent isocyanate compound.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: December 19, 2012
    Date of Patent: June 14, 2016
