Abstract
A polymer for an ink receiving layer of an inkjet recording element includes at least one first monomer chemically bonded to at least one second monomer. The second monomer includes a silane functional group. The at least one second monomer is distributed along a carbon backbone of the polymer at a non-terminal end. The polymer is capable of chemically bonding with an inorganic particulate substance.

A method of making an ink recording element, comprising:
- forming an ink receiving layer on a substrate, the ink receiving layer comprising a polymer chemically bonded with an inorganic particulate substance, wherein the polymer includes:
- at least one first monomer chosen from:
- aminoethylmethacrylate;
- aminoethylacrylate;
- 2-(t-butylamino)ethylmethacrylate;
- 2-methylaminoethylmethacrylate;
- 2-(ethylamino)ethylmethacrylate;
- 2-propylaminoethylmethacrylate;
- 2-(t-butylamino)ethylacrylamide;
- aminoethylacrylamide;
- aminoethylmethacrylamide;
- methylaminoethylmethacrylate;
- trimethylaminoethylmethacrylate chloride salt (quat);
- 2-vinyl-imidazole;
- (vinylbenzyl)trimethylammonium chloride;
- (vinylbenzyl)triethylammonium chloride;
- or diallyldimethylammonium chloride salt;
- at least one second monomer chemically bonded with the at least one first monomer, wherein the at least one second monomer is positioned at a non-terminal end of a carbon backbone of the polymer, and wherein the at least one second monomer is represented by the formula:
- wherein,
- n is an integer from 0 to 2;
- R is a hydrogen, methyl, or ethyl group;
- R1 is selected from hydrogen, an organic group containing 1 to 10 carbon atoms, and combinations thereof;
