Abstract
Ink and coating compositions, printing and coating processes, and printed and coated substrates utilizing a polymerizable composition comprising one or more di-activated vinyl compounds, with the proviso that said a di-activated vinyl compound is not a cyanoacrylate. Exemplary compositions include methylene malonates, methylene β-ketoesters, methylene β-diketones, dialkyl disubstituted vinyls, and dihaloalkyl disubstituted vinyls. Exemplary compositions are polymerizable at ambient temperatures.

A printing system comprising:
- a first container comprising a polymerizable composition comprising one or more di-activated vinyl compounds with the proviso that said a di-activated vinyl compound is not a cyanoacrylate;
- and
- a second container, separate from the first container, comprising a polymerization activator.

- providing a coating composition a polymerizable composition comprising one or more di-activated vinyl compounds, with the proviso that said a di-activated vinyl compound is not a cyanoacrylate, and, optionally, a coloring agent;
- to an coating delivery mechanism;
- and
- coating a substrate with the coating composition from the coating delivery mechanism.
