Definitions

  • the present document relates to the field of inkjet papers and methods for making them, and it in particularly relates to inkjet papers with quick drying properties and high-gloss.
  • ink-jet printers will produce an image on most papers, but the print quality varies heavily in dependence on the nature of the paper used.
  • print quality is meant factors such as the sharpness, intensity and uniformity of the image produced and its susceptibility to smudging immediately or shortly after the ink has been applied.
  • colour printing it is important also that the colours should not run into one another and that they should be vivid, with good brightness.
  • a pigment coating makes the paper highly absorptive to the aqueous ink vehicle, so that the vehicle drains away quickly into the body of the paper, leaving the coloured dye at the surface and thereby giving bright intense colours with minimal print bleed.
  • the most widely used general-purpose paper coating pigments are kaolin and calcium carbonate, particularly precipitated calcium carbonate (PCC). They have been used or proposed for use in coated ink jet papers, but primarily as extenders or in low-cost papers not designed to produce the highest quality colour images.
  • PCC precipitated calcium carbonate
  • WO 01/45956 proposes to use a speciality cationic PCC product according to WO-A-96/29369A which is much cheaper than silica pigments, and is easier to use from a rheological standpoint in combination with a minor proportion of gel-type silica included in the formulation, and all this for an image receiving top coating layer.
  • Remaining disadvantage is the relatively low solids content of the coating formulation.
  • US 598 5424 discloses a method comprising coating a base coat on a support, said base coat comprising precipitated calcium carbonate and calcinated clay at a solids content of 60%.
  • WO2006/003391 discloses an inkjet receiver comprising a support; an upper layer comprising a binder and a first inorganic particulate material having a mean particulate diameter of 500 nm or less, as well as an under layer comprising a binder and an inorganics particulate material.
  • EP1114735 discloses an inkjet paper comprising a support and (i) a base coating comprising 75 parts of precipitated calcium carbonate and 25 parts of precipitated silica and a binder and (ii) an ink-receptive top coating comprising fumed alumina.
  • the object of the present invention is therefore to provide an improved inkjet paper eliminating at least one of the disadvantages mentioned above and/or providing an economically and technically viable alternative to the solutions according to the state-of-the-art.
  • the present invention solves the above problem by providing a method for making an ink jet paper as detailed further below as well as an inkjet paper comprising two layers, an image receiving coating layer for gloss and a pre-coat layer for printing ink vehicle absorption beneath this image receiving coating layer, wherein these two coating layers both have specific coating formulations and both having a clear positive effect upon the printing properties.
  • the specific choice as given below provides a solution to the difficult problem to provide a coating which on the one hand can be of high-gloss and quick ink-drying, can be printed with most commercial inkjet printers/colours leading to vivid colours without bleeding and similar effects, and additionally a coating that can be run on a normal coating machine such as a blade coater without problems. So the specific proposed choice of a specifically designed image receiving coating layer with a further specifically designed pre-coating layer has to be regarded not as a simple superposition of these two layers but as a synergetic system in as far as adherence and ink receiving properties concerned etc.
  • the proposed inkjet paper comprises at least one image receiving coating layer and at least one pre-coat layer beneath said image receiving coating layer on a paper substrate, wherein the pre-coat layer comprises a specific formulation as follows:
  • the image receiving coating layer also comprises a specific formulation as follows:
  • the total coating recipe of the pre-coat layer and/or of the image receiving coating layer is chosen to be in an overall anionic state.
  • This is in contrast to conventional inkjet coating formulations, in which normally in at least one of the coating layers, normally in the ink receptive coating layer, specifically a cationic total coating system is provided to fix the anionic inkjet dyes.
  • a cationic total coating system is provided to fix the anionic inkjet dyes.
  • One such conventional inkjet coating formulation based on a purely cationic topcoat layer is for example described in EP 1114735 , where for an ink receptive top coating fumed alumina particles with a cationic surface charge are used in order to fix the anionic inkjet dyes, this effect is even supplemented by adding a cationic fixative in a high amount.
  • the cationic nature of the pigment of the ink receptive top coating layer is important according to this document EP 1114735 as if this pigment is partially replaced for example by colloidal silica, the colloidal silica has to be a cationic and therefore very specific type of colloidal silica.
  • the additional fine particulate pigments can be selected from (preferably anionic) pigments such as carbonate, in particular calcium carbonate such as precipitated or ground calcium carbonate, clay, silica, in particular silica gel or colloidal silica, kaolin, talc, as well as combinations and mixtures thereof.
  • anionic pigments such as carbonate, in particular calcium carbonate such as precipitated or ground calcium carbonate, clay, silica, in particular silica gel or colloidal silica, kaolin, talc, as well as combinations and mixtures thereof.
  • the fine particulate silica is the fine particulate silica.
  • this can either be replaced or supplemented by a specific porous carbonate pigment, more specifically by a fine particulate ground calcium carbonate with surface and internal structure modification as a result of treatment with one or more medium to strong H 3 O + ion providers and optionally with additional treatment of gaseous carbon dioxide.
  • a specific porous carbonate pigment more specifically by a fine particulate ground calcium carbonate with surface and internal structure modification as a result of treatment with one or more medium to strong H 3 O + ion providers and optionally with additional treatment of gaseous carbon dioxide.
  • silica gel is not only difficult to handle in the coating process (e.g. problem of low solids of silica aqueous pigment slurries and prepared coatings and problem of dust formation) and leads to a number of side-effects of the prepared coatings which have to be corrected for e.g. by additional constituents of the coating formulation, but in addition to that the replacement provides a very attractive cost advantage as silica gel pigments usually are relatively expensive.
  • the pre-coat formulation may go down to a minimum of one part in dry weight even, the other pigments complementing to 100 parts in dry weight.
  • a preferred embodiment of this aspect of the invention is characterised in that the fine particulate ground calcium carbonate with surface and internal structure modification and optionally an additional treatment with gaseous carbon dioxide has a median particle size in the range of approximately 1.5-2.5 ⁇ m.
