Abstract
A printable recording media including a supporting base substrate having, on its image side, a pre-coating layer that contains inorganic pigments and polymeric binders, and a top ink-receiving layer that includes inorganic pigments, polymeric binders and non-film forming polymers; and, having a polymer barrier layer on its backside. Also described herein is a method for making the printable recording media, a method for forming printed articles, and the obtained printed articles.
Claims15
1) A printable recording media comprising a supporting base substrate having:
- a. on its image side,
- i. a pre-coating layer that contains inorganic pigments and polymeric binders,
- ii. and a top ink-receiving layer that includes inorganic pigments, polymeric binders and non-film forming polymers;
- b. and having a polymer barrier layer on its backside.
12) A method for forming printed articles comprising:
- a. obtaining a printable recording media comprising a supporting base substrate having, on its image side, a pre-coating layer that contains inorganic pigments and polymeric binders, and a top ink-receiving layer that includes inorganic pigments, polymeric binders and non-film forming polymers;
- and, having a polymer barrier layer on its backside;
- b. applying an ink composition on the image side of the printable media, to form a printed image;
- c. and applying a post-image lamination film.
15) A method for making a printable recording material comprising:
- a. providing a supporting base substrate;
- b. applying a pre-coating layer that contains inorganic pigments and polymeric binders on the raw base substrate on the image side of the supporting base substrate;
- c. applying a top ink-receiving layer, that includes inorganic pigments, polymeric binders and non-film forming polymers, over said pre-coating layer;
- d. drying and calendaring said pre-coating layer and top ink-receiving layer;
- e. and extruding a polymer barrier layer on the backside of the supporting base substrate.
