摘要:
Imaging layers, image recording media, and methods of preparation of each, are provided. One exemplary embodiment of the imaging layer, among others, includes a matrix, a radiation absorbing compound dissolved in the matrix, at least two activators substantially dissolved in the matrix, and a color former. The activators can include a primary activator having a higher acidity than a secondary activator. In addition, the primary activator has a lower solubility in the matrix than the secondary activator. The color former is substantially insoluble in the matrix at ambient conditions and is substantially uniformly distributed in the matrix.

A method of forming a radiation imageable coating includes preparing a radiation-curable polymer matrix including an acidic activator species, forming a leuco-dye phase, distributing the leuco-dye phase in the polymer matrix, evaluating a power level of an targeted radiation source, and if the power level of the targeted radiation source is less than approximately 1 watt/cm2, sensitizing the radiation imageable coating with a sensitizing agent corresponding to the targeted radiation source.

Imaging layers, image recording media, and methods of preparation of each, are disclosed. One exemplary embodiment of the imaging layer, among others, includes a matrix; a radiation absorbing compound dissolved in the matrix; an aromatic compound dissolved in the matrix; a color former; and an activator. One of the activator and the color former is dissolved in the matrix and the other of the activator and the color former is substantially insoluble in the matrix at ambient conditions and is substantially uniformly distributed in the matrix.
摘要:
A method for producing printed articles that encompasses providing a first ink composition that contains metal oxide particles with an average particle size in the range of about 3 to about 300 nm; providing a second ink composition that contains colored pigments dispersed in an ink vehicle; providing a printable media having a bottom supporting substrate and an ink-absorbing layer with pore diameters that are smaller than the size of the metal oxide pigment particles and colored pigments; and sequentially applying, on the same print area, the first and the second ink compositions onto said printable media. Also disclosed herein are the printed articles obtained according to the present method.
摘要:
Compositions and systems for production of color images with a fluoran leuco dye having a latent developer are disclosed and described. A color forming composition or composite can include a polymer matrix, a thermally modifiable fluoran leuco dye having a latent developer attached thereto, and a radiation absorber. The thermally modifiable fluoran leuco dye can be developable upon the color forming composition being contacted with electromagnetic radiation which causes the radiation absorber to become energized, so that the energized radiation absorber causes the latent developer to undergo rearrangement to produce an intermediate dye form having a phenolic substituent. The intermediate dye can then undergo an acid catalyzed ring opening to produce a colored dye form.
摘要:
A printed article with metallic luster and gold-like appearance that encompasses a printable media on which a printed feature has been formed with an ink composition. The ink composition contains iron oxide pigment particles that have an average particle 5 size in the range of about 3 to about 300 nm and the printable media contains a bottom supporting substrate and ink-absorbing layer with pore diameters that are smaller than the average size of the iron oxide pigment particles. In such printed article, the ink composition forms onto the printable media a printed feature that has a thickness that is below about 300 nm.
