Abstract: A resin composition for an ink jet recording sheet, an ink jet recording sheet, a method for ink jet recording, and a method for producing an ink jet recording sheet are provided, wherein an ink absorption ability and a blurring suppressive effect are satisfactorily achieved. The ink jet recording sheet is prepared from a substrate layer and an ink-receiving layer that is overlaid said substrate layer. The ink-receiving layer contains (1) a major component of a water-absorbing polymer compound represented by the formula (I), and (2) a cationic polymer compound. A mixing ratio by weight of the water-absorbing polymer compound (1) and the cationic polymer compound (2) may be in the range between 50/50 and 99/1. A cationic or nonionic surface active agent (3) may be contained in the ink-receiving layer in an amount from 1% by weight to 10% by weight.

Abstract: The present invention provides a cation-modified linear copolymer which comprises, within the molecule thereof, 95 to 85 mole % of an ethylene structural unit, 0.1 to 10 mole % of an ester structural unit represented by general formula (II), 0.1 to 6 mole % of an acrylic or methacrylic acid structural unit and 1 to 12 mole % of an amide structural unit represented by general formula (IV). The copolymer and has a weight-average molecular weight of 1,000 to 100,000. When incorporated in thermoplastic resins, it shows good compatibility and results in good mechanical properties.
