Abstract
The present invention provides an inkjet recording processing liquid for use in an inkjet recording method of causing a processing liquid to adhere to a recording medium and thereafter causing ink to adhere to the recording medium to which the processing liquid has adhered. The inkjet recording processing liquid contains water, glycerin, and at least one multivalent metal salt selected from the group consisting of calcium nitrate and magnesium nitrate. The glycerin content in the processing liquid is 10 to 50 mass percent, and the multivalent metal salt content in the processing liquid is 0.8 to 2.0 mol/L.
Claims4
An inkjet recording method, comprising:
- providing a processing liquid which comprises water, glycerin, at least one multivalent metal salt selected from the group consisting of calcium nitrate and magnesium nitrate, and a water-soluble resin as a polymer dispersant, and in which the glycerin content in the processing liquid is 10 to 50 mass percent, the multivalent metal salt content in the processing liquid is 0.8 to 2.0 mol/L, and the polymer dispersant content in the processing liquid is 0.1 to 10 mass percent;
- causing the processing liquid to adhere to a recording medium at 0.2 to 1.8 mg per 1 cm2 of the recording medium in order to cause the multivalent metal salt to adhere to the recording medium at 0.8 mol per 1 L of the processing liquid×0.2 mg of the processing liquid per 1 cm2 of the recording medium to 2.0 mol per 1 L of the processing liquid×1.8 mg of the processing liquid per 1 cm2 of the recording medium;
- and
- causing ink to adhere to the recording medium to which the processing liquid has adhered.
