本開示のインクジェット記録方法(以下、単に「記録方法」ともいう)は、
水及び白色顔料を含有する白色インクを準備する工程と、
水及び着色顔料を含有する着色インクを準備する工程と、
非浸透性基材上に、着色インクをインクジェット法によって付与して着色画像を得る工程と、
着色画像上に、白色インクをインクジェット法によって付与し、表面粗さRaが0.10μm~0.40μmである白色画像を得る工程と、
を含む。
本開示の記録方法は、必要に応じ、その他の工程を含んでいてもよい。
かかる効果が奏される理由は、以下のように推測される。
本開示の記録方法では、着色画像上の白色画像の表面粗さRaが0.10μm以上であることにより、その白色画像上に更にラミネート基材をラミネートする際、白色画像とラミネート基材との接触面積を大きくすることができると考えられる。その結果、画像記録物のラミネート強度(即ち、画像記録物における白色画像とラミネート用基材とのラミネート強度)が向上すると考えられる。
更に、着色画像上に記録される白色画像の表面粗さRaが0.40μm以下であることにより、白色画像上にラミネート基材をラミネートする際、白色画像の表面に対するラミネート基材の追従性が向上し(即ち、白色画像の表面とラミネート基材との間に隙間が生じることが抑制され)、その結果、画像記録物のラミネート強度が向上すると考えられる。
この着色画像上の白色画像の表面粗さRaは、例えば、KEYENCE社製のカラー3Dレーザ顕微鏡「VK-9710」によって測定する。
白色画像の表面粗さRaを0.10μm~0.40μmの範囲内に調整する方法については適宜選択される。
例えば、
着色インクの組成(例えば、着色顔料の粒径、着色顔料の量、樹脂粒子の有無、等)と、着色画像の形成条件(例えば、着色インクの付与条件と乾燥条件との組み合わせ)と、白色インクの組成(例えば、白色顔料の粒径、白色顔料の量、樹脂粒子の有無、等)と、白色画像の形成条件(例えば、白色インクの付与条件と乾燥条件との組み合わせ)と、の組み合わせを適宜選択することにより、着色画像上に形成される白色画像の表面粗さRaを0.10μm~0.40μmの範囲内に調整することができる。
本開示の記録方法は、水及び白色顔料を含有する白色インクを準備する工程を含む。
以下、本工程で準備する白色インクについて説明する。
白色インクは、水を含有する。
水の含有量は、白色インクの全量に対し、好ましくは30質量%以上であり、より好ましくは40質量%以上であり、更に好ましくは50質量%以上である。
水の含有量の上限は、他の成分の量にもよるが、白色インクの全量に対し、好ましくは90質量%以下であり、より好ましくは80質量%以下であり、更に好ましくは70質量%以下である。
白色インクは、白色顔料を含有する。
白色顔料は、白色を呈する顔料であればよく、種類は特に限定されない。
白色顔料としては、例えば、酸化チタン、チタン酸ストロンチウム、チタン酸バリウム、酸化亜鉛、酸化マグネシウム、酸化ジルコニウム、酸化アルミニウム、硫酸バリウム、シリカ、タルク、マイカ、水酸化アルミニウム、ケイ酸カルシウム、ケイ酸アルミニウム、硫化亜鉛等の無機顔料(即ち、粒子)が挙げられる。
白色顔料は、チタン原子を有する粒子であることが好ましく、酸化チタン粒子であることがより好ましい。
白色顔料の平均粒子径が大きい程、得られる白色画像の表面粗さRaを0.10μm以上の範囲に調整しやすい。
白色顔料の平均粒子径が小さい程、得られる白色画像の表面粗さRaを0.0.40μm以下の範囲に調整しやすい。
顔料の平均粒子径及び粒径分布は、粒度分布測定装置、例えば、日機装社製の製品名「ナノトラックUPA-EX150」を用いて、動的光散乱法により体積平均粒子径を測定することにより求められるものである。
顔料が顔料分散剤によって被覆されている場合には、顔料の平均粒子径とは、顔料分散剤に被覆された顔料の平均粒子径を意味する。
白色インクの全量に対する白色顔料の含有量が多い程、得られる白色画像の表面粗さRaを0.10μm以上の範囲に調整しやすい。
白色顔料の含有量は、白色インクの全量に対して、25質量%以下であることが好ましく、20質量%以下であることがより好ましい。
白色インクの全量に対する白色顔料の含有量が少ない程、得られる白色画像の表面粗さRaを0.40μm以下の範囲に調整しやすい。
白色インクは、インクジェットヘッドからの吐出性(以下、単に「吐出性」ともいう)の観点から、有機溶剤を含有することが好ましい。
1,3-ブタンジオール(207℃)、1,4-ブタンジオール(228℃)、ベンジルアルコール(205℃)、テルピオネール(217℃)等のアルコール;
エチレングリコール(197℃)、ジエチレングリコール(244℃)、トリエチレングリコール(287℃)、プロピレングリコール(187℃)、ジプロピレングリコール(230℃)等のアルキレングリコール;
ジエチレングリコールモノメチルエーテル(194℃)、ジエチレングリコールモノエチルエーテル(202℃)、ジエチレングリコールモノブチルエーテル(231℃)、ジエチレングリコールジメチルエーテル(162℃)、ジエチレングリコールエチルメチルエーテル(176℃)、ジエチレングリコールイソプロピルメチルエーテル(179℃)、トリエチレングリコールモノメチルエーテル(249℃)、トリエチレングリコールジメチルエーテル(216℃)、プロピレングリコールモノメチルエーテル(121℃)、プロピレングリコールモノブチルエーテル(170℃)、プロピレングリコールモノプロピルエーテル(150℃)、3-メトキシ-3-メチル-1-ブタノール(174℃)、ジエチレングリコールモノへキシルエーテル(261℃以上)、プロピレングリコールモノメチルエーテルプロピオネート(160℃)、メチルセロソルブ(エチレングリコールモノメチルエーテル、125℃)、エチルセロソルブ(エチレングリコールモノエチルエーテル、135℃)、ブチルセロソルブ(エチレングリコールモノブチルエーテル、171℃)、エチレングリコール-モノ-tert-ブチルエーテル(153℃)、トリプロピレングリコールモノメチルエーテル(243℃)、ジプロピレングリコールモノメチルエーテル(188℃)等のアルキレングリコールアルキルエーテル;
エチレングリコールモノメチルエーテルアセテート(145℃)、ジエチレングリコールモノエチルエーテルアセテート(217℃)、酢酸エチル(154℃)、乳酸エチル(154℃)、酢酸3-メトキシブチル(172℃)等のエステル;
ジアセトンアルコール(169℃)、シクロヘキサノン(156℃)、シクロペンタノン(131℃)等のケトン;
等が挙げられる。
なお、上記例示において、括弧内の数値は沸点を示す。
白色インクに含有される有機溶剤中に占める第1有機溶剤の割合は、50質量%以上であることが好ましく、80質量%以上であることがより好ましく、90質量%以上であることがさらに好ましい。
上記割合は100質量%であってもよい。すなわち、白色インクに含まれる有機溶剤の全てが第1有機溶剤であってもよい。
白色インクは、顔料分散剤を含有してもよい。
本開示において、顔料分散剤とは、顔料を分散させる機能を有する。
白色インクが顔料分散剤を含有する場合、白色顔料の表面に顔料分散剤が吸着し、白色顔料の表面の少なくとも一部を被覆することにより、白色顔料が水中に分散され得る。
なお、白色顔料として、顔料分散剤が存在しなくても水中で分散することが可能な自己分散性顔料を用いる場合には、白色インクは、顔料分散剤を含まなくてもよい。
また、白色インクに含まれる顔料分散剤は、架橋構造を有するポリマーであってもよい。
中でも、白色インクに含まれる顔料分散剤は、架橋構造を有するポリマー又はブロックポリマーであることが好ましい。顔料分散剤が架橋構造を有するポリマー又はブロックポリマーであると、顔料分散剤が白色顔料の表面から脱離にしにくいと考えられ、白色顔料の分散安定性が高い。その結果、白色インクが前処理液と反応する際、白色顔料が均一に凝集するため、画像が均一となり、有機溶剤が揮発しやすく、ラミネート強度がより向上する。また、前処理液を使用しない場合でも、白色インクが非浸透性基材上に着弾した後に、水が揮発していく過程で、白色インク中の溶剤比率が上がり、白色顔料の分散が不安定化しやすくなる。その際、顔料分散剤が架橋構造を有するポリマー又はブロックポリマーであると、白色顔料の不均一な凝集が抑制され、画像が均一となり、有機溶剤が揮発しやすく、ラミネート強度がより向上する。
架橋構造を有するポリマーは、分子内に架橋構造を少なくとも1つ有するポリマーであれば特に限定されない。
市販品としては、例えば、Denacol EX-321、EX-821、EX-830、EX-850及びEX-851(ナガセケムテックス社製)が挙げられる。
ブロックポリマーとは、ブロック共重合体ともいい、少なくとも2つのポリマーが分子中で結合している共重合体である。
白色インクは、画像記録物のラミネート強度を向上させる観点から、樹脂粒子を含有することが好ましい。
即ち、白色インクは、顔料分散剤とは別に、樹脂からなる粒子である樹脂粒子を含有することが好ましい。
水不溶性ポリマーにおける「水不溶性」とは、25℃の蒸留水100gに対する溶解量が2g未満である性質を意味する。
自己分散性の樹脂粒子としては、例えば、特開2016-188345号公報の段落0062~0076、国際公開第2013/180074号の段落0109~0140等に記載の樹脂粒子が挙げられる。
芳香環構造を有する(メタ)アクリレートは、フェノキシエチル(メタ)アクリレート又はベンジル(メタ)アクリレートであることが好ましい。
白色インクは、必要に応じて、その他の成分を含有してもよい。
その他の成分としては、例えば、界面活性剤、共増感剤、紫外線吸収剤、酸化防止剤、褪色防止剤、導電性塩、塩基性化合物等が挙げられる。
白色インクのpHは、吐出安定性を向上させる観点から、7~10であることが好ましく、7.5~9.5であることがより好ましい。pHは、pH計を用いて25℃で測定され、例えば、東亜DKK社製のpHメーター(型番「HM-31」)を用いて測定される。
本開示の記録方法は、水及び着色顔料を含有する着色インクを準備する工程を含む。
本工程で準備する着色インクは1種であっても、2種以上であってもよい。多色画像を記録するためには、本工程で準備する着色インクは2種以上であることが好ましい。
以下、本工程で準備する着色インクについて説明する。

ここで、透明性を有するとは、波長400nm~700nmの可視光の透過率が、80%以上(好ましくは90%以上)であることを意味する。
