Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of inkjet printing, in particular to a micellar phase-change reactive dye ink regulated by a cationic polymer. Background Art
[0002] As a key technology in digital manufacturing, inkjet printing integrates the achievements of multiple disciplines, including computer science, precision mechanical engineering, and materials science. With its high production efficiency, environmental friendliness, and flexible adaptability, it is gradually replacing traditional printing techniques and occupying a core position in industries such as textiles, packaging, and decoration. Driven by the deep synergy of artificial intelligence and the Internet of Things, this technology is accelerating its evolution towards intelligent control and ultra-precision. This requires ink systems to meet more stringent performance standards, maintaining rheological stability during ultra-high-speed jetting, and simultaneously ensuring ink droplet landing accuracy and substrate penetration efficiency, achieving indicators related to submicron pattern contour clarity.
[0003] At present, the performance optimization of inkjet ink mainly relies on the following technical routes, but there are still significant limitations: Viscosity regulator addition method (such as patent CN114016306A): The viscosity of the ink is adjusted by introducing thickeners such as polyvinyl pyrrolidone or carboxymethyl chitosan, but excessive addition will cause satellite particles to be generated during the flight of the ink droplets, resulting in blurred pattern edges. Surface tension regulation method: The micelle morphology is changed by adjusting the concentration of silicone oil contained in a single surfactant and the carbon content of the alkyl group (such as patent CN119640604A), but there is a problem of low dynamic surface tension response rate, which causes uneven spreading of the ink droplets when in contact with the substrate, affecting the fineness. For traditional regulators, PEG compounds, PVP compounds, etc. are difficult to degrade and will pollute water and soil; substances such as ethylene glycol ethers and toluene are neurotoxic and carcinogenic, and the EU REACH regulations have restricted their use (such as patent CN117988133A). The above methods are difficult to take into account the technical indicators of low viscosity, high dynamic response and low satellite point incidence, which restricts the application of inkjet printing in high-precision scenarios (such as microcircuit printing and high-end textiles).
[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to develop a micellar phase change reactive dye ink based on cationic polymer regulation. Without adding an external viscosity regulator, the ionic association between the cationic polymer and the anionic surfactant can be used to induce the structural transformation of the surfactant aggregate, thereby achieving precise control of the rheological properties and dynamic surface tension of the ink, improving the dynamic surface tension response rate, and inhibiting the generation of satellite points of the jetted ink droplets. At the same time, it ensures that the ink droplets spread quickly after hitting the substrate, thereby achieving the industrial goals of high-speed inkjet printing ink droplet stability and high pattern fineness. Summary of the Invention
[0005] To enhance the fineness and process stability of inkjet printing patterns, the present invention provides a cationic polymer-mediated micellar phase-change reactive dye ink. This innovative approach incorporates a cationic polymer-mediated micellar phase-change mechanism into the reactive dye ink system, overcoming the limitations of traditional methods that rely on a single component to modulate the ink's rheological properties and dynamic surface tension. The core of this approach lies in incorporating the cationic polymer-mediated micellar phase-change mechanism into the reactive dye ink. Without the addition of a viscosity modifier, this approach leverages the structural transformation of surfactant aggregates to precisely control the ink's rheological properties and dynamic surface tension, improving the dynamic surface tension response rate. This approach achieves two key innovations: 1. Formula innovation, eliminating exogenous additives such as polyethylene glycol, reducing raw material costs and simplifying the process; and 2. Performance enhancement, through dynamic micelle reconstruction, simultaneously optimizing rheological properties and interfacial response, suppressing satellite dot formation, ensuring ink droplet spread and finalization within 5ms, and enhancing the clarity of inkjet patterns. No prior art method has disclosed a solution for optimizing reactive dye ink systems based on a cationic polymer-induced micellar phase-change strategy. The present invention achieves targeted performance control through a multi-level molecular-micelle structure collaborative design, demonstrating substantial innovation. At the same time, the system can adapt to continuous production needs. As a common solution for inkjet printing, it will help the industry transform to low-carbon precision manufacturing.

[0008] The cationic polymer-modulated micellar phase-change reactive dye ink contains 1% to 50% cationic polymer. Prepared within this concentration range, the cationic polymer-modulated micellar phase-change reactive dye ink achieves controlled transformation of the surfactant's self-assembled structure by regulating the electrostatic interaction between the cationic polymer and the anionic surfactant. This intermolecular interaction effectively optimizes the rheological properties and dynamic surface tension behavior of the ink system, significantly improving the ink's jetting stability and substrate wetting while reducing the amount of traditional viscosity modifiers used.

[0018] The present invention also provides a method for preparing the above-mentioned micellar phase change reactive dye ink based on cationic polymer regulation, comprising the following steps:
[0019] The invention discloses a method for preparing a micellar phase-change active dye ink regulated by a cationic polymer. The method comprises the following steps: taking various raw material components, uniformly mixing the components except the cationic polymer in proportion, slowly adding the cationic polymer dropwise with stirring using a peristaltic pump, stirring for 1-3 hours, and filtering through a 0.10-1.00 micron filter membrane to prepare a micellar phase-change active dye ink regulated by a cationic polymer. The prepared micellar phase-change active dye ink regulated by a cationic polymer has a viscosity of 1-100 cP, a surface tension of 20-100 mN / m, a pH value of 3-9, a dynamic surface tension response rate of 1-300 mN / (m·s), a uniform morphology of ejected ink droplets, and can be continuously printed without ink for 3 months. Based on cryo-transmission observation, the aggregate structure of anionic surfactants includes spherical, worm-like, lamellar micelles and vesicle structures. Due to the differences in the aggregate structures, the average particle size distribution is 10 nm to 150 nm. The micellar phase-change active dye ink regulated by the cationic polymer is uniformly mixed according to the component proportions and then filtered through a 0.10-1.00 micron filter membrane.
[0020] In order to more clearly understand the technical solution of the present invention, the invention mechanism of the present technical solution is explained as follows:
[0021] (1) The ionic association of cationic polymers can be controlled by the anion / cation concentration ratio. When the concentration of anionic surfactants is higher than that of cationic polymers, the excess anions completely neutralize the positive charge of the polymer chains through electrostatic adsorption, resulting in a significant shielding of the electrostatic repulsion between cationic segments. The intermolecular interaction is dominated by the van der Waals force of the surfactant hydrophobic chain, forming a weakly bound micelle-polymer complex. When the anion / cation ratio reaches an equimolar ratio, the two form a high-strength electrostatic association through charge complementarity. The positively charged groups of the cationic polymers and the anionic groups of the surfactants produce localized strong dipole interactions, which promote the construction of a through-type three-dimensional electrostatic cross-linked network between the polymer backbone and the micelle units. When the concentration of cationic polymers is dominant, the unbound cationic groups form long-range electrostatic repulsion domains in the solution, forcing the polymer chains to stretch and produce a spatial repulsion effect. At the same time, the surfactant micelles are anchored to the polymer chains through charge matching, forming a "rigid-flexible" composite structure stabilized by the electrostatic repulsion and micelle steric hindrance.
[0022] (2) The change in cationic polymer concentration systematically regulates the fluidity, surface tension, and dynamic response behavior of the ink through the coupling of charge interaction and fluid mechanics. When the polymer concentration increases, the excess cationic groups increase the ionic strength of the system through the Donnan effect, compress the double layer thickness of the colloidal particles, and reduce the Zeta potential, resulting in a decrease in dispersion stability. At the same time, the polymer chains entangle to form a transient network structure, causing the zero-shear viscosity to increase exponentially with concentration. The network disentanglement at high shear rates triggers a significant shear thinning effect, achieving an adaptive switch between static anti-settling and dynamic low viscosity of the ink. At the level of dynamic surface tension response, high-concentration polymers limit the migration rate of surfactant monomers to the gas-liquid interface through electrostatic capture, resulting in an increase in static surface tension. However, during the transient process of high-speed shear or ink droplet impact on the substrate, the external force field induces the disassociation of the polymer-surfactant complex, and the released free surfactant is rapidly adsorbed to the three-phase contact line, accelerating the spreading of the liquid film by reducing the dynamic surface tension gradient. In addition, when the polymer concentration exceeds the critical entanglement concentration, its molecular chains form a viscoelastic adsorption layer at the gas-liquid interface, generating a normal stress difference through changes in conformational entropy. This stress field synergistically dissipates the kinetic energy of ink droplet impact and suppresses capillary wave oscillations. At the same time, with the help of the Marangoni effect, it compensates for the local surface tension differences during the wetting process, ultimately achieving the dual suppression of uniform liquid film spreading and satellite point generation, and achieving cross-scale collaborative optimization of ink rheological properties, interfacial behavior and dynamic response.
[0023] Compared with related technologies, the micellar phase change reactive dye ink based on cationic polymer regulation provided by the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0024] (1) The present invention constructs an adaptive rheological control system by using cationic polymers and anionic surfactants. Without adding an external viscosity modifier, the system relies on the dynamic cross-linked network formed by intermolecular electrostatic interaction to achieve directional control of the rheological properties of the ink under static storage and high-speed shear conditions, thereby improving the dynamic surface tension response rate and suppressing the generation of satellite points of the jetted ink droplets. During the pipeline transmission stage, the system maintains the structural viscosity of the ink through a three-dimensional network structure, ensuring the stability of ink sedimentation, while meeting the fluid dynamic conditions for continuous injection and the requirements for precise formation of ink droplets on the substrate surface. This mechanism breaks through the injection lag effect caused by the reliance on external viscosity modifiers in traditional inks, thereby improving the clarity and color rendering accuracy of the pattern contour.
[0025] (2) Based on the surfactant aggregate phase transition mechanism regulated by ionic association strength, the precise coupling of dynamic interfacial behavior and ink droplet dynamics is achieved. By adjusting the polymer-surfactant charge density ratio, the aggregate is guided to evolve from a spherical micelle to a lamellar structure, and a non-equilibrium surface tension response window is established. At the moment the ink droplet hits the substrate, the interfacial active components generated by the disassociation of the aggregate quickly migrate to the three-phase contact line, accelerating the spreading of the liquid film by reducing the dynamic surface tension gradient; at the same time, the fluid elastic effect triggered by the structural transformation of the aggregate can effectively dissipate the energy of the ink droplet impact and inhibit the generation of satellite points. This dual-path control mechanism solves the contradiction between ink droplet penetration and positioning accuracy in high-speed printing, and provides an interfacial chemical theoretical basis for the controllable fixation of reactive dye inks.
