Problems solved by technology

However, such an ink composition tends to lower its viscosity when vibration is applied from the outside, so when a pigment with a large specific gravity is used, the pigment tends to settle, and the viscosity cannot be lower

Abstract

To provide a reversible thermochromic aqueous ink composition that exhibits excellent dispersion stability of a reversible thermochromic microcapsule pigment; and a writing instrument using same. A reversible thermochromic aqueous ink composition that contains: a reversible thermochromic microcapsule pigment which is obtained by microencapsulating a reversible thermochromic composition containing(a) an electron-donating color-developing organic compound, (b) an electron-receiving compound, and (c) a reaction medium that determines the temperature at which a color-developing reaction between the component (a) and the component (b) takes place; and a vehicle that contains water and a specific gravity-adjusting agent selected from the group consisting of oxyacids of group 6 elements having atomic weights of 90-185 and salts thereof.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a reversible thermochromic water-based ink composition. More specifically, the present invention relates to a reversible thermochromic aqueous ink composition excellent in storage stability and ink color-developing properties. Moreover, this invention also relates to the writing instrument using this composition. Background technique [0002] Ink compositions for writing implements using pigments as colorants have been actively researched because they can obtain a color tone excellent in vividness. Among them, ink compositions using reversible thermochromic microcapsule pigments can express color according to temperature. Different colors are therefore applied to various writing instruments. (for example, Patent Document 1) [0003] Patent Document 1 describes an ink composition for writing instruments using a reversible thermochromic microcapsule pigment, water, a polymer coagulant, and a writing instrument using the ink co...
