Abstract
An ink jet recording method includes discharging a ultraviolet curable ink of which viscosity is 7 mPa·s or more at 20° C. from a head toward a recording medium, and curing the ultraviolet curable ink adhered to the recording medium, wherein, in the discharging, the temperature of the ultraviolet curable ink discharged is 20 to 30° C., and the viscosity of the ultraviolet curable ink at the temperature is 13 mPa·s or less.
Claims20
An ink jet recording method comprising:
- discharging a ultraviolet curable ink containing vinyl ether group-containing (meth)acrylic acid esters represented by the following General Formula (I), and a monofunctional (meth)acrylate other than the vinyl ether group-containing (meth)acrylic acid esters, and of which viscosity is 7 mPa·s or more at 20° C., from a head toward a recording medium;
- and
- curing the ultraviolet curable ink adhered to the recording medium,
- wherein, in the discharging, the temperature of the ultraviolet curable ink discharged is 20 to 30° C., and the viscosity of the ultraviolet curable ink at the temperature is 13 mPa·s or less,
- CH2═CR1—COOR2—O—CH═CH—R3 (I),
- in the formula, R1 is a hydrogen atom or a methyl group, R2 is a divalent organic residue having 2 to 20 carbon atoms, and R3 is a hydrogen atom or a monovalent organic residue having 1 to 11 carbon atoms.
