Definitions
- the invention relates to a process for improving the printability of paper and paper products when printing with the aid of the inkjet printing process by treating the paper or the paper products with aqueous solutions of cationic polymers.
- High quality paper must be used for images that are to have the quality of a photograph.
- papers of a quality that allow reading or recognizing the message or the image are sufficient. Between these two extremes there is a wide range of papers that have to meet the respective requirements for inkjet printing.
- High quality papers suitable for this printing process are e.g. B. provided with a coating of a water-absorbing pigment, a hydrophilic binder and a cationic polymer (see. G. Morea-Swift, H.
- the inkjet printing process has the basic disadvantage that the printouts are due to their water solubility or the water dispersibility of the inks used are water sensitive. When the print image comes into contact with water, this causes the colors to run into one another and into the paper, both in the paper plane and perpendicular to the paper plane. In the worst case, a font can no longer be read, an image is blurry and the colors have an effect on the back of the paper.
- the waterfastness of the printout is not of great concern to all users, but even for users whose pictures do not normally come into contact with water, the trouble is great if drops of water accidentally get on the picture and blur it, and if the spilled color is so Dirty tablecloth, or the picture shows the imprints of wet fingers.
- papers that have been printed using the inkjet printing process and that are exposed to the rain for example poster paper or packaging paper, or that can become damp due to condensation or filling liquids, for example bottle labels, it is essential that the inkjet printout is waterproof. If e.g. B. the bar code on a package or on a label is no longer sharp due to the effects of moisture and is not read or incorrectly, the economic damage can be very high.
- High quality, expensive paper for inkjet printing such as B. used for the segment photography, art print, etc. provide waterproof print images. They are produced by coating the base paper with a color consisting of a water-absorbing pigment, preferably silica, a water-soluble binder, preferably polyvinyl alcohol, possibly other water-soluble binders, and cationic organic polymers (see above G. Morea-Swift, H. Jones, THE USE OF SYNTHETIC SILICAS IN COATED MEDIAFOR INK-JET PRINTING).
- a water-absorbing pigment preferably silica
- a water-soluble binder preferably polyvinyl alcohol, possibly other water-soluble binders
- cationic organic polymers see above G. Morea-Swift, H. Jones, THE USE OF SYNTHETIC SILICAS IN COATED MEDIAFOR INK-JET PRINTING.
- the object is achieved according to the invention with a method for improving the printability of paper and paper products when printing with the aid of the ink-steel printing method by treating the paper or the paper products with aqueous solutions of cationic polymers, if one uses cationic polymers with a charge density of uses at least 3 meq / g as the sole treatment agent in aqueous solution and applies it in an amount of 0.05 to 5 g / m 2 to the surface of the paper or paper products.
- Cationic polyelectrolytes are those which are normally used as process chemicals in the field of paper production, e.g. B. as a fixing agent, as a retention and drainage agent, as a paper strengthener, as a flocculant, etc.
- These include, in particular, polyethyleneimine and its derivatives, polyamines, polyamidoamines, polyamidoamine-epichlorohydrin resins, polydiallyldimethylammonium chloride, other polydiallyldialkylammonium salts, polydiallylalkylammonium, minydiallylalkylammonium, , Polyvinylamine, partially hydrolyzed polyvinylformamides, polymers and copolymers of dialkylaminoalkyl acrylates and methacrylates, polymers and copolymers of acryloylalkyltrialkylammonium salts and of methacryloylalkyltrialkylammonium salts, homopolymers and
- Polymers from the group consisting of the polymers containing vinylamine units, polymers containing ethyleneimine units, polymers containing diallyldimethylammonium chloride units, polymers containing quaternized dimethylaminoethyl (meth) acrylate units, and dimethylaminoethyl (meth) acrylic amide units are preferred.
- Particularly preferred cationic polymers are hydrolyzed homo- or copolymers of N-vinylformamide with a degree of hydrolysis of 20 to 100%, polyethyleneimines, polydiallyldimethylammonium chlorides and / or polyamidoamine resins crosslinked with epichlorohydrin.
- the polyelectrolytes mentioned can be used both individually and in any combination with one another. If necessary, they can also be mixed with nonionic water-soluble polymers.
- the water resistance of the printed images of the inkjet prints depends on various factors, for example on the inks used and on the paper which is treated with the polycations, as well as on the density of the positive charges on the polycations and on the molar mass of the polycations.
- Good water resistance can already be observed with charge densities of at least 3 milliequivalents per gram (hereinafter always referred to as "mVal / g") polycation (without taking the anions into account).
- mVal / g milliequivalents per gram
- the water resistance increases with the charge density, so that charge densities of more than 3.5 to 23 meq / g polycation are preferred.
- Charge densities of 8 to about 20 meq / g polycation are very particularly preferred.
- the molar mass of the polycations also has an influence on the water resistance. It is, for example, at least 10,000 daltons, and the polymers should preferably be selected such that the charge density is high at low molar masses. Molecular weights of the polycations of more than 50,000 daltons are preferred, more preferably more than 100,000 daltons.
- the molecular weights of the cationic polyelectrolytes which can be used according to the invention can be, for example, up to 5 million daltons, preferably up to 2 million daltons.
- the viscosities of the aqueous solutions of the polyelectrolytes are adjusted so that a sufficient amount of polymer can penetrate the paper.
- the viscosities of the aqueous solutions of the cationic polymers should not be higher than 3,000 mPas, preferably not higher than 2,000 mPas. They are usually in the range from 10 to 1,000 mPas, each measured at 20 ° C.
- the treatment of the papers with the solutions of the cationic polyelectrolytes according to the invention can be carried out according to the methods customary for the surface treatment of paper in the paper industry.
- Known application units can be used, e.g. B. film presses, size presses, various coating units with Ra- no, scraper (English. Blades) or air brushes, or spray devices, such as them eg for the application of starch in EP-A-0 373 276 or for the application of coating slips by V. Nissinen, Kliblatt für Textilfabrikation, 2001, 11/12, pages 794-806.
- the aqueous solutions of the cationic polyelectrolytes can also be applied during the calendering of paper via the moistening devices. It is important that the cationic polyelectrolyte at least partially penetrates the paper and does not stick to the surface of the paper alone.
- the amount of cationic polyelectrolytes which is applied to the paper according to the invention can vary within wide limits. In general, based on m 2 of paper, it is 0.05 g to 5 g, and is preferably in the range of 0.1 g to 3 g and in particular 0.5 g to 2 g per m 2 of paper, based on the solvent-free cationic polyelectrolytes.
- the invention also relates to the use of aqueous solutions which contain cationic polymers with a charge density of at least 3 meq / g as sole treatment agent for application to the surface of paper or paper products in an amount of 0.05 to 5 g of cationic polymer / m 2 to improve the ink-jet printability of paper and paper products.
- the printability of all recording materials such as graphic papers, natural paper or coated paper or of paper products such as cardboard and cardboard can be improved by applying aqueous solutions of the cationic polyelectrolytes to the surface of the papers or paper products.
- the aqueous solutions of cationic polymers can be applied once or several times, for example once to three times, preferably once or twice. A one-off order is usually sufficient. The job can only be done on one side or on both sides (front and back) of the paper.
- the aqueous solutions of the cationic polymers can also be applied simultaneously to the top and the bottom of the paper.
- the aqueous solution of the cationic polymers is applied several times, this can be done, for example, in each case on the top of the paper or the paper products, or else, for example in the case of coated paper, on the back, for example once on the base paper, once before and once after Final stroke, or once after the preliminary stroke, once after the middle stroke and once after the final stroke or once before and once after the final stroke.
- the solution of the polyelectrolyte is preferably applied to a natural paper or to a coated paper after the final stroke, particularly preferably once to twice and most preferably once.
- the aqueous solution of the cationic polymers can, for example, be applied to the paper or the paper products using a size press, a film press, a spraying device, a coating unit or a paper calender.
- the products are preferably dried in order to remove the water and optionally satinized.
- the treated papers are dried e.g. through drying cylinders, infrared emitters, hot air etc.
- the satinizing (calendering) of the treated papers is usually carried out at a temperature between 15 and 100 ° C.
- the papers, cardboards or cartons treated according to the invention can be printed with the various variants of the ink jet printing process with the aid of the respective printing devices. However, they can also be used in conventional processes, e.g. Offset, gravure or gravure printing, flexographic printing or other digital printing processes, such as Laser printing - or indigo printing. Waterproof printing images are also obtained with these printing processes.
- the method according to the invention simplifies the difficult task for the person skilled in the art of producing papers with very simple means and high flexibility, which produce water-resistant printed images when printed with different ink jet methods and which can also be printed using classic printing methods and other digital printing methods and which may have further advantageous properties.
- the percentages in the following examples mean percentages by weight.

- Polyelectrolyte IX polyvinylformamide with a molecular weight of approximately 30,000 daltons, from which 90% of the formyl groups had been split off to form amino groups.
- the charge density of the polycation measured at pH 4.5 was 20.4 meq / g.
- Polyelectrolyte X high molecular weight polyethyleneimine, crosslinked with a polyethylene glycol dichlorohydrin ether and neutralized with formic acid (Catiofast ® SF from BASF Aktiengesellschaft). The charge density of the polycation measured at pH 4.5 was 19.0 meq / g.
- Polyelectrolyte XI polyvinylformamide with a molecular weight of approximately 45,000 daltons, from which 23% of the formyl groups had been split off to form amino groups.
- the charge density of the polycation measured at pH 4.5 was 3.6 meq / g.
- Polyelectrolyte XII high molecular weight polyethylene imine, neutralized with formic acid (Catiofast ® PL from BASF Aktiengesellschaft). The charge density of the polycation measured at pH 4.5 was 19.8 meq / g.
- the papers were printed with the ink jet printers also given in Table 1 with a printed image which was black, white and colored Contained writing and areas. Smaller strips were cut out of the printed paper at the same places, which in turn contained black, white and colored writing and areas. These strips, two different per image, were held in a tap water jar for 30 seconds, with gentle agitation for 10 seconds. Then they were placed on a blotting paper made of white untreated cellulose and left to dry. The bleeding of the colors and the coloring on the blotting paper were assessed with the marks 1 to 5 as described above. The results are listed in Table 1.
- 10% aqueous solutions of the cationic polyelectrolytes listed in Table 4 were applied with a hand knife on large-scale industrial paper with a basis weight of 68 g / m 2 , which was used as the basis for a coated paper, in such a way that after drying 2, 0 g / m 2 of the polyelectrolyte remained on the paper.
- the paper was dried and calendered according to the state of the art.
- the papers were then printed with the ink jet printer shown in Table 4 with a print image which contained black, white and colored writing and areas. Smaller strips were cut out of the printed paper at the same places, which in turn contained black, white and colored writing and areas.
