Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A pretreatment liquid for an oil-based ink contains one of a maleic anhydride resin derivative and an aluminum chelate compound.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A pretreatment liquid for an oil-based ink, the pretreatment liquid comprising one of a maleic anhydride resin derivative and an aluminum chelate compound, wherein the aluminum chelate compound is represented by one of the following formulas (1) and (2): wherein R 1 O represents a volatile alkoxy group, R 2 , R 3 , and R 4 each represent an alkyl group, and R 5 represents a methyl group or R 1 O; and wherein R 6 O represents a volatile alkoxy group, and R 7 represents an alkyl group. 2. The pretreatment liquid according to claim 1 , wherein the oil-based ink contains an organic solvent being at least one selected from the group consisting of alcohols, primary amines, and secondary amines, and wherein the pretreatment liquid contains a maleic anhydride resin derivative. 3. The pretreatment liquid according to claim 2 , wherein the organic solvent has a carbon number of 12 or more. 4. An oil-based ink jet printing ink set comprising the pretreatment liquid as set forth in claim 3 . 5. An oil-based ink jet printing method comprising printing with the oil-based ink jet printing ink set as set forth in claim 4 . 6. An oil-based ink jet printing ink set comprising the pretreatment liquid as set forth in claim 2 . 7. An oil-based ink jet printing method comprising printing with the oil-based ink jet printing ink set as set forth in claim 6 . 8. The pretreatment liquid according to claim 1 , wherein the maleic anhydride resin derivative is at least one selected from the group consisting of rosin-modified maleic anhydride resins, acrylic-modified maleic anhydride resins, and styrene-modified maleic anhydride resins. 9. An oil-based ink jet printing ink set comprising the pretreatment liquid as set forth in claim 8 . 10. An oil-based ink jet printing method comprising printing with the oil-based ink jet printing ink set as set forth in claim 9 . 11. The pretreatment liquid according to claim 1 , wherein the oil-based ink contains an organic solvent that is a higher alcohol having a carbon number of 12 or more. 12. An oil-based ink jet printing ink set comprising the pretreatment liquid as set forth in claim 11 . 13. An oil-based ink jet printing method comprising printing with the oil-based ink jet printing ink set as set forth in claim 12 . 14. An oil-based ink jet printing ink set comprising the pretreatment liquid as set forth in claim 1 . 15. An oil-based ink jet printing method comprising printing with the oil-based ink jet printing ink set as set forth in claim 14 . 16. An oil-based ink jet printing ink set comprising: an oil-based ink; and a pretreatment liquid comprising one of a maleic anhydride resin derivative and an aluminum chelate compound. 17. The oil-based ink jet printing ink set according to claim 16 , wherein the oil-based ink contains an organic solvent being at least one selected from the group consisting of alcohols, primary amines, and secondary amines, and wherein the pretreatment liquid contains a maleic anhydride resin derivative. 18. The oil-based ink jet printing ink set according to claim 16 , wherein the maleic anhydride resin derivative is at least one selected from the group consisting of rosin-modified maleic anhydride resins, acrylic-modified maleic anhydride resins, and styrene-modified maleic anhydride resins. 19. The oil-based ink jet printing ink set according to claim 17 , wherein the organic solvent has a carbon number of 12 or more. 20. The oil-based ink jet printing ink set according to claim 16 , wherein the aluminum chelate compound is represented by one of the following formulas (1) and (2): wherein R 1 O represents a volatile alkoxy group, R 2 , R 3 , and R 4 each represent an alkyl group, and R 5 represents a methyl group or R 1 O; and wherein R 6 O represents a volatile alkoxy group, and R 7 represents an alkyl group. 21. The oil-based ink jet printing ink set according to claim 16 , wherein the oil-based ink contains an organic solvent that is a higher alcohol having a carbon number of 12 or more.
