Abstract
Transparent image-recording elements that contain ink-receptive layers that can be imaged by the application of liquid ink dots. The ink-receptive layers contain a combination of a vinyl pyrrolidone polymer with a polyester, a poly(cyclohexane-dimethylene-co-oxydiethylene isophthalate-co-sodio-sulfobenzenedicarboxylate), dispersed in the vinyl pyrrolidone to control ink dot size. A printing method which employs the transparent image-recording elements is described.
Claims9
In a transparent image-recording element comprising a support and an ink-receptive layer, said element adapted for use in a printing process where liquid ink dots are applied to the ink-receptive layer that contains a vinyl pyrrolidone polymer, the improvement wherein the layer comprises particles of a polyester, poly(cyclohexylenedimethylene-co-oxydiethylene isophthalate-co-sodiosulfobenzenedicarboxylate), dispersed in the vinyl pyrrolidone polymer to thereby control ink dot size.
