Disclosed are opaque ink jet ink compositions and a method of printing that produce messages having a good contrast on darkly colored substrates, particularly darkly colored glass substrates, and that do not smear or degrade when exposed to moisture and/or hot and cold humid conditions, or when exposed to ice water or water under sterilizing conditions. The ink jet ink compositions comprise one or more organic solvents, one or more white pigments, one or more hydrophobic conductive agents, and one or more binder resins. In an embodiment of the ink jet ink composition, at least one binder resin comprises an acrylic or styrene acrylic resin. In another embodiment, the ink jet ink composition is free of polyamines. The ink jet ink composition may also include a glass adhesion promoter.
A white opaque ink jet ink composition comprising one or more organic solvents, one or more white pigments, one or more colorless hydrophobic conductive agents, and one or more binder resins, wherein at least one binder resin comprises an acrylic or styrene acrylic resin.
An opaque ink jet ink composition comprising one or more organic solvents, one or more white pigments, one or more hydrophobic conductive agents, one or more binder resins, and a glass adhesion promoter.
A white opaque ink jet ink composition comprising one or more organic solvents, one or more white pigments, one or more hydrophobic conductive agents, and one or more binder resins, wherein at least one binder resin comprises an acrylic or styrene acrylic resin and the ink jet ink composition is free of polyamines.
An opaque ink jet ink composition comprising one or more organic solvents, one or more white pigments, one or more hydrophobic conductive agents, and one or more binder resins, wherein at least one binder resin comprises an acrylic or styrene acrylic resin and the ink jet ink composition is suitable for printing on a glass substrate.
An opaque ink jet ink composition comprising one or more organic solvents, one or more white pigments, one or more hydrophobic conductive agents, and one or more binder resins, wherein at least one hydrophobic conductive agent comprises a hydrophobic dye and the ink jet ink composition is free of polyamines.
A yellow opaque ink jet ink composition comprising one or more organic solvents, one or more white pigments, one or more colorless hydrophobic conductive agents, one or more yellow colorants, and one or more binder resins, wherein at least one binder resin comprises an acrylic or styrene acrylic resin.
A blue opaque ink jet ink composition comprising one or more organic solvents, one or more white pigments, one or more colorless hydrophobic conductive agents, one or more blue colorants, and one or more binder resins, wherein at least one binder resin comprises an acrylic or styrene acrylic resin.
A red opaque ink jet ink composition comprising one or more organic solvents, one or more white pigments, one or more colorless hydrophobic conductive agents, one or more red colorants, and one or more binder resins, wherein at least one binder resin comprises an acrylic or styrene acrylic resin.
