Embodiment Construction

[0017] The ink composition, ink set and image forming method using them of the present invention are described in detail below.

[0018]

[0019] The ink composition of the present invention comprises: a pigment; self-dispersible resin particles comprising a hydrophilic constituent unit and a hydrophobic constituent unit; at least two nonionic surfactants comprising (a) an HLB of 15 to 19 A nonionic surfactant and (b) a nonionic surfactant having an HLB of 10 to less than 15; a water-soluble organic solvent; and water. The ink composition of the present invention further contains one or more other components such as a dispersant for a pigment, a wax, or a wetting agent, as required.

[0020] When preparing an aqueous ink containing a pigment as a colorant and also conventionally used resin particles such as latex as a resin component (in order to enhance the rub resistance of a formed image), for example, during storage, etc., the ink is exposed to temperatures higher than n...

Abstract

An ink composition is disclosed which includes a pigment, self-dispersing resin particles including a hydrophilic constituent unit and a hydrophobic constituent unit, at least two nonionic surfactants including (a) a nonionic surfactant having an HLB of from 15 to 19 and (b) a nonionic surfactant having an HLB of from 10 to less than 15, a water-soluble organic solvent, and water. An ink set and an image forming method are also disclosed.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a water-based ink composition, an ink set and an imaging method. Background technique [0002] Since an image forming method using an inkjet method can record high-quality images on various recording media, for example, by ejecting ink droplets from nozzles provided on an inkjet head, such an image forming method is expected to be applied to a wide range of fields. . [0003] In the process of forming an image, in terms of the quality of the image, it is required that unevenness (such as streaky unevenness or color missing areas), and require the image itself to have strong scratch resistance. In addition, in order to achieve the high quality required for images, it is also important that the ejection characteristics when ink is ejected from the ejection head meet the requirements. [0004] For example, from the viewpoint of improving the strength of formed images and the like, there are cases where the ink has a resin compo...
