Problems solved by technology

[0007] However, in this pigment ink, the glossiness and the uniformity of the printed image are not sufficient, and in particular, due to the reflected light of the pigment aggregated on the surface of the paper, a color different from the original color tone (golden luster) may be observed. phenomenon); or there is a problem of poor quality for water-soluble dye inks in terms of ink fixation or scratch resistance such as gloss changes

Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an ink composition capable of obtaining an image having an excellent glossy feeling for various recording media, especially the recording media having gloss, showing less bronze phenomenon and having a good fixing property and abrasion resistance such as a gloss change, etc. SOLUTION: This ink composition at least containing a coloring agent covered by a water insoluble polymer and resin particles is characterized in that the water insoluble polymer is a polymer obtained by polymerization using at least a polymerizable unsaturated monomer and a polymerization initiator by a solution polymerization method, the coloring agent covered with the water insoluble polymer is the coloring agent obtained by a phase inversion emulsification of dissolving the water insoluble polymer with an organic solvent, adding at least the coloring agent and water, mixing and then removing the organic solvent to disperse in an aqueous medium, and the resin particles are made of at least a polymer obtained by a polymerization by emulsion polymerization method using a cross-linking agent.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an ink composition. More specifically, it relates to an ink composition suitable for an inkjet recording method. Background technique [0002] The inkjet recording method is a printing method in which small droplets of ink are flown and adhered to a recording medium such as paper to perform printing. With the innovative progress of inkjet recording technology in recent years, the inkjet recording method has been gradually used in high-definition image recording (printing) in the field of photographs or offset printing. High-quality recording is also required for recording media such as ordinary paper for inkjet recording or special paper for inkjet recording (matte series, glossy series), and recording media such as paper actually used for printing. [0003] As an ink used in inkjet recording, an ink composition including a color material serving as a colorant, water, a water-soluble organic compound, a surfactant, an...
