Abstract: Disclosed is a water washable ink for offset lithographic newspaper printing containing: a modified soybean oil-based resin; a pigment; and an acid neutralization agent, wherein the water washable offset lithographic newspaper printing ink does not contain any of the following: a humectant, a surfactant or a modified linseed oil.

Abstract: The invention relates to an ink set for ink jet recording comprising at least one “self-dispersion type pigment ink containing water and a pigment dispersible in water without a dispersing agent” and at least one “light-color resin-containing pigment ink containing water and a pigment made dispersible in water with a resin, wherein the concentration of the pigment is one-half or less the concentration of the pigment contained in the self-dispersion type pigment ink”. Also disclosed is an ink jet recording process for conducting ink jet recording using the ink set described above.

Abstract: The invention relates to an ink set for ink jet recording comprising at least one “resin-containing pigment ink containing water and a pigment made dispersible in water with a resin” and at least one “self-dispersion type pigment ink containing water and a pigment dispersible in water without a dispersing agent”, wherein the ink set is constituted so that the at least one resin-containing pigment ink and the at least one self-dispersion type pigment ink correspond to each other in terms of hue. Also disclosed is an ink jet recording process for conducting ink jet recording using the ink set described above, wherein the resin-containing pigment ink contained in the ink set is used for paper exclusive to ink jet recording, and the self-dispersion type pigment ink contained in the ink set is used for plain paper.

Abstract: A luminescent flexographic printing ink for printing control marks comprises a combination of a light-scattering pigment and an optical brightener and is not opaque. The luminescent flexographic printing ink is used for printing control marks and bar codes and for the production of decorative papers, wood laminates and floor panels.

Abstract: An ink jet recording ink is provided containing water, a pigment that is self-dispersible in water, a water-soluble organic solvent, and a nonionic polymer of which the amount is preferably in a range of about 5% by mass to about 200% by mass relative to the total mass of the pigments. The nonionic polymer is preferably selected from a group consisting of polyvinyl alcohol, polyvinyl pyrrolidone, polyacrylamide, poly N-vinyl acetamide, and the like. The absolute value of zeta potential of the ink is preferably in the range of about 5 mV to about 30 mV.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a 3DP™ material composition and method of use. The composition of the present invention includes an adhesive material, a fibrous component and a filler. Alternatively, the composition may include a particulate material having a mean particle size between about 10 microns and about 300 microns, a soluble adhesive material. The compositions may also include an accelerator and an additional adhesive.
