  • Patent number: 9701857
    Abstract: There are provided an active energy ray-curable composition containing a polymerizable compound represented by General Formula (1), a polymerizable compound represented by General Formula (2), and a photopolymerization initiator, and an ink composition for inkjet recording use. CH2?CR1—CO—O—R2—O—CH?CH—R3??(1) (In Formula (1), R1 represents a hydrogen atom or a methyl group, R2 represents an organic residue having 2 to 20 carbon atoms, and R3 represents a hydrogen atom or an organic residue having 1 to 11 carbon atoms.) (In Formula (2), each of R4 and R5 independently represents a hydrogen atom or a methyl group, each of R6a, R6b, and R6c independently represents a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, or an alkoxy group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, and m+n represents an integer of 0 to 4.).

  • Patent number: 6676997
    Abstract: A method of forming a two-layer coat, which comprises the steps of: applying (1) a coating composition onto a thermoplastic resin base and drying the coating to form a colored layer, the coating composition (1) comprising: (A) an acrylic resin obtained by copolymerization of a monomer mixture comprising n-butyl (meth)acrylate and methyl (meth)acrylate, each in an amount of at least 30 wt. %; (B) a colorant; and (C) an organic solvent; applying (2) an energy beam curable overcoat composition onto the colored layer, the overcoat composition (2) comprising: (D) a compound having at least three (meth)acryloyl groups and having a molecular weight of 250 to 1,800; and (E) an acrylic resin obtained by copolymerization of a monomer mixture comprising at least 20 wt. % of methyl (meth)acrylate, the compound (D) amounting to at least 50 wt. % of overcoat film-forming components; and curing the applied overcoat composition by energy beam irradiation.
