Abstract
Disclosed herein is a printable recording media including a substrate and, at least, an ink receiving layer that includes a first distinct layer and a second distinct layer that is applied on top of the first distinct layer. The first distinct layer includes an electrical charged substance and the second distinct layer includes, at least, a polymeric binder and nano-size inorganic pigment particles. Also disclosed herein is a method for making the printable recording media.
Claims15
A printable recording media comprising a substrate, and, at least, an ink receiving layer that includes a first distinct layer consisting of an electrical charged substance and an organic binder, and, on top of said first distinct layer, a second distinct layer containing, at least, a polymeric binder and nano-size inorganic pigment particles, wherein the first distinct layer and the second distinct layer, of the ink receiving layer, have a difference in coating thickness in Z-direction that is, at least, 1:10.
An article comprising a cellulose paper substrate having, on its image side, an ink fixation layer and an ink fusion layer wherein the ink fusion layer is applied over the ink fixation layer as a distinct layer and wherein the difference in coating thickness in Z-direction is, at least, 1:10, and wherein the ink fixation layer consists of an electrical charged substance and an organic binder.
A method for making a printable recording media comprising:
- a) providing a substrate;
- b) applying a first distinct layer consisting of an electrical charged substance and an organic binder on the substrate;
- c) drying said first distinct layer;
- d) applying a second distinct layer containing, at least, a polymeric binder and nano-size inorganic pigment particles on the first distinct layer;
- e) drying said second distinct layer in order to obtain an ink receiving layer;
- wherein the first distinct layer and the second distinct layer, of the ink receiving layer, have a difference in coating thickness in Z-direction that is, at least, 1:10.
A printable recording media comprising a substrate, and, at least, an ink receiving layer that includes a first distinct layer comprising an electrical charged substance, and, on top of said first distinct layer, a second distinct layer containing, at least, a polymeric binder and nano-size inorganic pigment particles, wherein the first distinct layer and the second distinct layer, of the ink receiving layer, have a difference in coating thickness in Z-direction that is, at least, 1:10, and wherein the first distinct layer has a coat weight of about 0.65 gsm.
