Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は消しゴム消去性水性インキ組成物およびこれを用いた筆記具に関する。
【0002】
【従来技術】
従来から消しゴム消去性水性インキ組成物について多くの提案がなされている。例えば、特開平5−279614号公報では「0℃以下の造膜温度もしくは0℃以下のガラス転移温度を有する樹脂、粒子径1〜20μの着色球状樹脂微粒子および水を含有し、インキ粘度5〜35mPa・secである消去性インキ」として開示されており、また、特開2001−19888号公報では「顔料と粘着性樹脂からなる着色樹脂微粒子表面の少なくとも一部が粘着性を有してなり且つ前記粒子の粒子分布が2μm〜20μmの範囲に70重量%以上含まれる粘着性着色樹脂粒状体と水と水溶性極性溶剤とから少なくともなる筆記用消しゴム消去性水性インキ組成物」として開示されている。いずれの公報に記載のインキ組成物においては、消しゴム消去性とするために、着色剤が紙面の内部へ浸透するのを防止すると共に、筆跡の保持性を付与するために着色剤と粘着性樹脂とよりなる着色樹脂微粒子とし、これを用いてインキ組成物を調製している。しかし、これらのインキ組成物は、色材を樹脂微粒子中に点在させているため、色材として顔料そのものを用いたボールペンと比較して濃さにおいて劣っており、また、消しゴムで消去する際、着色樹脂微粒子同士が団塊的に集合して除去するのであるが、紙面表面を摩擦によって筆跡を掻き取るのではないため消去性においても、鉛筆などと比較して消えにくいという欠点があった。更に、経時安定性においても色材として顔料そのものを用いたボールペンと比較して、粒子の沈降などが起こりやすいという欠点があった。
【0003】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
本発明者らは上記のような従来技術の問題点を解決するために鋭意研究を重ねた結果、着色樹脂微粒子を用いると濃さが出にくい原因を着色樹脂微粒子中に色剤が点在しているためであると考え、着色樹脂微粒子の芯に無機または有機微粒子を内包させ、この無機または有機微粒子の外表面付近に色材を局在化させる技術を見出し、これによって、着色樹脂微粒子を用いても筆記用途のインキ組成物として充分な濃さを有し、更に、消しゴム消去性においては、無機または有機微粒子が紙面を摩擦することによって筆跡を掻き取るために消しゴム消去性に優れた効果のあることを見出し、更に、無機または有機微粒子に中空微粒子または比重の軽い微粒子を用いることによって分散媒質との比重調整を行うことができ、これによって経時安定性を得ることが出来ることを見出し、本発明を完成するに至ったもので、本発明の目的は上記従来の欠点を一挙に改良した消しゴム消去性水性インキ組成物及びそれを用いた筆記具を提供することである。
【0004】
【課題を解決するための手段】
本発明の要旨は、カプセル粒子、水溶性有機溶剤、及び、水とからなる消しゴム消去性水性インキ組成物であって、前記カプセル粒子はその表面の少なくとも一部が粘着性を有するポリマーを壁材とし、その内部には芯物質として色材と粒度分布が0.1μm〜12μmの無機または有機微粒子とを内包し、該色材は無機または有機微粒子の外表面付近に局在化しており、且つ、前記カプセル粒子の粒度分布は1μm〜20μmであることを特徴とする消しゴム消去性水性インキ組成物である。
即ち、本発明においてはカプセル粒子内に色材と共に無機または有機微粒子を内包させ、無機または有機微粒子の外表面付近に色材を局在化させることによってインキ組成物の濃さを濃くし、また、当該内包微粒子に硬いものを用いることによって、内包微粒子が消しゴムで筆跡を消去する際に筆跡を掻き取る働きをし、更に、無機または有機微粒子を用いることによって、分散媒質との比重調整を行なって、安定性を得、これらの作用によって従来のものより優れたインキの濃さ、消しゴム消去性及び経時安定性を有する消しゴム消去性の水性インキ組成物およびそれを用いた筆記具を提供することができたのである。
【0005】
【発明の実施の形態】
本発明について詳細に説明する。
本発明において、カプセル粒子表面の少なくとも一部が粘着性を有するポリマーを壁材とする。このようなポリマーとしては、ガラス転移温度が60℃以下であるものが好ましい。60℃以下、好ましくは30℃〜45℃のガラス転移温度であることによって、カプセル粒子に適度な粘着性を与え、指もしくは紙面どうしで擦れるなどの擦過に耐え得る定着性および消しゴムで容易に消去可能な消去性を有し得る。そして、カプセル粒子の粒度分布が1μmより小さいと紙面の隙間に入りこみ、消しゴムで消去することが困難となり、20μmより大きいとボールペンのチップと呼ばれるボールホルダー部につまってしまう。そのため、上記の要件を満たすことが重要である。
このカプセル粒子内に内包させる無機または有機微粒子の粒度分布は0.1〜12μmの範囲にある。0.1μmより小さいと、無機または有機微粒子を内包したメリットすなわち本発明の効果であるインキ組成物の濃さや消しゴム消去性および経時安定性の向上があまり見られなくなってしまう。また12μmより大きくなると、無機または有機微粒子を内包し、且つ所望の大きさのカプセル粒子を得ることが難しくなってしまう。
前記無機または有機微粒子および色材を内包するカプセル粒子は懸濁重合法にて調整される。乳化重合法やミニエマルジョン重合法ではカプセル粒子そのものの大きさが小さくなり、紙面の細孔に粒子が入りこんでしまい消去しにくくなる。一方、懸濁重合法、シード重合法、液中乾燥法、分散重合法などは比較的、本発明に好適な粒子径の粒子が得られやすい。中でも懸濁重合法は生成粒子の大きさ、カプセル粒子壁の性質、強度などの点で本発明に好適であると考えられる。
【0006】
そこで、懸濁重合法について以下に説明をする。懸濁重合法とは重合開始剤を溶解したモノマー相を、このモノマー相と相溶性のない連続相中に液滴状に分散させた分散系で行ない、球状のポリマー粒子を生成する方法である。本発明における懸濁重合法を詳しく説明すると、油溶性の重合開始剤、および無機または有機微粒子および色材を分散もしくは溶解させた水不溶のモノマーを、懸濁安定剤とよばれる分散剤含有の水の中に油滴として分散させた分散系で重合を進行させ、無機または有機微粒子および色材を内包したポリマーカプセル粒子を生成する方法である。従って本発明に使用されるモノマーは水に不溶または難溶のモノマーが好ましく、ラジカル重合可能なモノマーであれば制限なく使用することができる。斯かるモノマーの具体例としては、スチレン、クロルスチレン、α−メチルスチレン、ジビニルベンゼン、ビニルトルエン等の重合性不飽和芳香族類、アクリル酸、メタクリル酸、イタコン酸、マレイン酸、フマル酸などの重合性不飽和カルボン酸類、スチレンスルホン酸ソーダ等の重合性不飽和スルホン酸もしくはその塩、メタクリル酸メチル、アクリル酸メチル、メタクリル酸エチル、アクリル酸エチル、メタクリル酸n−ブチル、アクリル酸n−ブチル、メタクリル酸−2−ヒドロキシエチル、アクリル酸−2−ヒドロキシエチル、メタクリル酸グリシジル、アクリル酸グリシジル、エチレングリコールジメタクリル酸エステル、エチレングリコールジアクリル酸エステル、アクリロニトリル、メタアクリロニトリル、メタアクロレイン、アクロレイン、メタアクリルアミド、アクリルアミド、ブタジエン、イソプレン、ビニルピリジン、N−ビニルピロリドン、共役ジエン類などが挙げられる。また様々な多官能性化合物もしくはモノマーも架橋剤として使用することができる。斯かる例としては、ジビニルベンゼン、ジビニルナフタレン、ジビニルシクロヘキサン、1,3−ジプロペニルベンゼン、エチレングリコールジメタクリレート、エチレングリコールジアクリレート、ジエチレングリコールジアクリレート、ジエチレングリコールジメタクリレート、ブチレングリコール、トリメチロールエタントリアクリレート、トリメチロールエタントリメタクリレート、ペンタエリスリトールテトラメタクリレート、ペンタエリスリトールテトラアクリレート等が挙げられる。
【0007】
重合開始剤においては水不溶または難溶の重合開始剤が好ましく、ラジカル重合開始剤であれば制限なく使用することができる。2,2’−アゾビスイソブチロニトリル、2,2’−アゾビス(2−メチルプロパンニトリル)、2,2’−アゾビス−(2,4−ジメチルペンタンニトリル)、2,2’−アゾビス−(2−メチルブタンニトリル)、1,1’−アゾビスー(シクロヘキサンカルボニトリル)、2,2’−アゾビス−(2,4−ジメチル−4−メトキシバレロニトリル)、2,2’−アゾビス−(2−アミノジプロパン)ヒドロクロリド等のアゾ(アゾビスニトリル)タイプの開始剤、過酸化ベンゾイル、クメンヒドロペルオキシド、過酸化アセチル、過酸化水素、過酸化ラウロイル、過硫酸塩、(過硫酸アンモニウム)、過酸化エステル(例えば、t−ブチルペルオクテート、α−クミルペルオキシピバレート及びt−ブチルペルオクテート)等の過酸化物タイプの開始剤が挙げられる。
【0008】
カプセル粒子内に内包させる有機微粒子は、同じく懸濁重合法にて調製することができる。上記の水不溶または難溶のモノマーと当該モノマーに可溶な重合開始剤を溶解させ、懸濁安定剤を含む水に高速で攪拌分散させ、油滴を生成し、温度をかけてラジカル重合を開始させることによって調製することができる。このときにモノマーの種類を適宜選択することにより硬い有機微粒子や柔らかい有機微粒子とすることができ、消去性にもこの芯物質の硬さが影響を及ぼす。また、市販の無機または有機微粒子を用いてもよい。JSR(株)社製の架橋ポリスチレンアクリル粒子SX8703やSX704や綜研化学(株)社製の架橋アクリル単分散粒子MXシリーズや架橋ポリスチレン粒子SGPシリーズや鈴木油脂工業(株)社製のゴッドボールE-2CやE-6Cのような多孔質シリカ球形粒子などを用いることができ、場合によっては分級を施すと好適である。粒子径が12μm以下の球状粒子であれば上記のものに限定されずに使用できる。
また、前記無機または有機微粒子は中空粒子であってもよく、前記色材および無機または有機微粒子内包カプセル粒子の比重をインキ組成物の分散媒質の比重と合わせるために用い、比重調整を行なうことによってカプセル粒子の沈降などを防止して経時安定性を向上させることができる。前記有機中空微粒子においては同じく懸濁重合法で調製することができ、以下に調製方法を記す。上記の水不溶または難溶のモノマーと当該モノマーに可溶で重合開始剤を溶解させ、さらに油溶性界面活性剤を多量に添加し、高速で攪拌を行なうことにより気泡が微分散したモノマーを、懸濁安定剤を含む水に高速で攪拌分散させ、油滴を生成し温度をかけてラジカル重合を開始させることによって気体を中核になす微粒子ができる。
また、下記のような市販の中空の無機または有機微粒子を用いてもよい。JSR(株)社製の架橋ポリスチレンアクリル中空粒子SX866や大日本インキ化学工業(株)社製の架橋ポリスチレンアクリル中空粒子GRANDOLL PP2000Sのような中空粒子、(株)シラックスウ社製のSILAX-MSなどの超微粒子シラスバルーンや鈴木油脂工業(株)社製のゴッドボールB-6Cのような中空多孔質シリカ球形粒子などを用いることができ、場合によっては分級を施すと好適である。また比重が1.2以下であり、粒子径が12μm以下の中空粒子であれば上記のものに限定されずに使用できる。
【0009】
前記無機または有機微粒子は、カプセル粒子中に少なくとも1種または2種以上用いられてもよい。また、前記インキ組成物中に色材および無機微粒子内包カプセル粒子と色材および有機微粒子内包カプセル粒子など種類の異なる2種以上のカプセル粒子を混在させてもよい。
さらに色材においては、公知の各種顔料および染料が使用可能であり、具体的には各種カーボンブラック、炭酸カルシウム、酸化チタン等の無機系顔料やアゾ系顔料、フタロシアニン系顔料、アンスラキノン系顔料、インジゴ系顔料、メラミン系顔料、等の有機顔料や蛍光顔料;染料においては、水に不溶または難溶の油溶性染料が好ましく、具体的にはソルベントレッド、ソルベントブルー、ソルベントオレンジ、ソルベントグリーンや油性インキ組成物に通常使用されている染料であるアゾ系、フタロシアニン系、アンスラキノン系染料などが挙げられる。これらの顔料および染料は単独または二種以上混合して使用してもよい。
懸濁重合に際しては懸濁安定剤を使用する。懸濁安定剤としてはゼラチン、ポリビニルアルコール、メチルセルロース、カルボキシメチルセルロースのような水溶性高分子、もしくはドデシルベンゼンスルホン酸ナトリウム、硫酸ドデシルナトリウムのような界面活性剤、もしくはリン酸三カルシウム、炭酸カルシウム、二酸化チタン、二酸化ニッケルのような固体微粉末を用いるのが好ましい。
【0010】
無機または有機微粒子および色材は上記の方法でカプセル粒子内に内包させるため、モノマー相に良く分散されていることが必要条件となる。そのため、無機または有機微粒子および色材をモノマー相に分散しやすくするために、無機または有機微粒子および色材表面をシラン系カップリング剤や、チタネート系カップリング剤および界面活性剤などで表面処理を施すとよい。これらのカップリング剤は無機または有機微粒子および色材の表面性状に応じて適宜選択される。具体的には、シラン系カップリング剤においては、γ−(2−アミノエチル)アミノプロピルトリメトキシシラン、γ−(2−アミノエチル)アミノプロピルメチルジメトキシシラン、アミノシラン、γ−メタクリロキシプロピルトリメトキシシラン、N−β−(N−ビニルベンジルアミノエチル)−γ−アミノプロピルトリメトキシシラン・塩酸塩、γ−グリシドキシプロピルトリメトキシシラン、γ−メルカプトプロピルトリメトキシシラン、メチルトリメトキシシラン、メチルトリエトキシシラン、ビニルトリアセトキシシラン、γ−クロロプロピルトリメトキシシラン、ヘキサメチルジシラザン、γ−アニリノプロピルトリメトキシシラン、ビニルトリメトキシシランなどが挙げられ、チタネートカップリング剤においてはイソプロピルトリイソステアロイルチタネート、イソプロピルトリ−n−ドデシルベンゼンスルホニルチタネート、イソプロピルトリス(ジオクチルピロホスフェート)チタネート、テトライソプロピルビス(ジオクチルホスファイト)チタネート、テトラオクチルビス(ジトリデシルホスファイト)チタネート、テトラ(2,2−ジアリルオキシメチル−1−ブチル)ビス(ジ−トリデシル)ホスファイトチタネート、ビス(ジオクチルピロホスフェート)オキシアセテートチタネート、ビス(ジオクチルピロホスフェート)エチレンチタネート、イソプロピルトリ(ジオクチルホスフェート)チタネート、イソプロピルトリ(N−アミノエチル−アミノエチル)チタネートなどが挙げられる。
また、前記無機または有機微粒子および色材内包カプセル粒子はインキ組成物中に5重量%〜35重量%含有されることが望ましい、5重量%未満では筆跡の濃さに影響を及ぼし、35重量%を越えると経時安定性に影響を及ぼす。
【0011】
更にインキ組成物中にはせん断減粘性付与剤を含み、1.0sec-1での粘度が800〜30000mPa.sであり、且つ100sec-1での粘度が20〜2000mPa.s(Haake社レオメーターRS−75にて測定20℃の値)を示すものが好適である。せん断減粘性付与剤は水に可溶または分散するものが好適であり、下記のものに限定されず使用することができる。斯かるせん断減粘性付与剤の例としてはキサンタンガム、アルカガム、ジェランガム、グァーガム、ローカストビーンガムなどの天然多糖類、ヒドロキシメチルセルロース、カルボキシメチルセルロース、などのセルロース類、ポリアクリル酸、ポリアクリル酸メタクリル酸アルキル共重合体などのアクリル酸重合体類、ポリエチレングリコール脂肪酸エステル類など単独あるいは混合して使用することができる。
従って、本発明の好ましい態様としては、無機または有機微粒子および色材内包カプセル粒子および水、水溶性有機溶剤、せん断減粘性付与剤を含んでなるボールペン筆記用消しゴム消去性水性インキ組成物である。

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to an eraser erasable water-based ink composition and a writing instrument using the same.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Conventionally, many proposals have been made on eraser erasable water-based ink compositions. For example, in JP-A-5-279614, “a resin having a film forming temperature of 0 ° C. or lower or a glass transition temperature of 0 ° C. or lower, colored spherical resin fine particles having a particle diameter of 1 to 20 μm and water, and an ink viscosity of 5 In addition, in JP-A-2001-1988, “at least a part of the surface of the colored resin fine particles composed of a pigment and an adhesive resin has adhesiveness” and disclosed as “Erasable ink of 35 mPa · sec”. It is disclosed as a writing eraser erasable aqueous ink composition for writing comprising at least 70% by weight of a particle distribution of the particles in a range of 2 μm to 20 μm, water and a water-soluble polar solvent. . In the ink composition described in any of the publications, in order to make the eraser erasable, the coloring agent is prevented from penetrating into the paper surface, and the coloring agent and the adhesive resin are used to impart handwriting retention. The ink composition is prepared by using the colored resin fine particles. However, these ink compositions are inferior in density compared to ballpoint pens using the pigment itself as the color material because the color material is interspersed in the resin fine particles, and when erasing with an eraser. Although the colored resin fine particles are aggregated and removed together, there is a drawback that the erasability is not as good as that of a pencil or the like because the handwriting is not scraped off by friction on the paper surface. Furthermore, in terms of stability over time, there is a drawback that particle sedimentation or the like is likely to occur as compared with a ballpoint pen that uses the pigment itself as a coloring material.
[0003]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
As a result of intensive studies to solve the problems of the prior art as described above, the present inventors have found that the coloring resin fine particles are scattered in the colored resin fine particles because the color resin fine particles are difficult to obtain. Therefore, we found a technology to encapsulate inorganic or organic fine particles in the core of colored resin fine particles and localize the coloring material near the outer surface of the inorganic or organic fine particles. Even if it is used, it has sufficient strength as an ink composition for writing, and in the eraser erasability, the inorganic or organic fine particles scrape the handwriting by rubbing the paper surface, and the effect of excellent eraser erasability Furthermore, the specific gravity of the dispersion medium can be adjusted by using hollow fine particles or fine particles with a low specific gravity as inorganic or organic fine particles. The object of the present invention is to provide an eraser-erasable water-based ink composition and a writing instrument using the same, which have improved the above-mentioned conventional drawbacks at once. That is.
[0004]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
The gist of the present invention is an eraser-erasable water-based ink composition comprising capsule particles, a water-soluble organic solvent, and water, wherein the capsule particles are made of a wall material made of a polymer having at least a part of the surface of the capsule particles. And the inside contains a coloring material as a core material and inorganic or organic fine particles having a particle size distribution of 0.1 μm to 12 μm, and the coloring material is localized near the outer surface of the inorganic or organic fine particles, and The capsule particle has a particle size distribution of 1 μm to 20 μm, and is an eraser erasable water-based ink composition.
That is, in the present invention, inorganic or organic fine particles are encapsulated in the capsule particles together with the color material, and the color material is localized near the outer surface of the inorganic or organic fine particles, thereby increasing the density of the ink composition. By using a hard material for the encapsulated fine particles, the encapsulated fine particles function to scrape the handwriting when the handwriting is erased with an eraser. Further, by using inorganic or organic fine particles, the specific gravity with the dispersion medium is adjusted.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The present invention will be described in detail.
In the present invention, a wall material is a polymer in which at least a part of the capsule particle surface has adhesiveness. Such a polymer preferably has a glass transition temperature of 60 ° C. or lower. It has a glass transition temperature of 60 ° C. or lower, preferably 30 ° C. to 45 ° C., so that the capsule particles are given moderate tackiness and can be easily erased with a fixing property and an eraser that can withstand rubbing such as rubbing between fingers or paper. It may have possible erasability. If the particle size distribution of the capsule particles is smaller than 1 μm, the capsule particles enter the gaps on the paper surface, making it difficult to erase with an eraser. If the particle size distribution is larger than 20 μm, the capsule particles are stuck in a ball holder called a ballpoint pen tip. Therefore, it is important to satisfy the above requirements.
The particle size distribution of the inorganic or organic fine particles encapsulated in the capsule particles is in the range of 0.1 to 12 μm. If it is smaller than 0.1 μm, the merit of including inorganic or organic fine particles, that is, the effect of the present invention, such as the density of the ink composition, the eraser erasability and the stability over time, are hardly observed. On the other hand, if it exceeds 12 μm, it becomes difficult to encapsulate inorganic or organic fine particles and obtain capsule particles of a desired size.
The capsule particles containing the inorganic or organic fine particles and the color material are prepared by suspension polymerization. In the emulsion polymerization method or the mini-emulsion polymerization method, the size of the capsule particles themselves is reduced, and the particles enter the pores on the paper surface and are difficult to erase. On the other hand, the suspension polymerization method, seed polymerization method, submerged drying method, dispersion polymerization method and the like are relatively easy to obtain particles having a particle size suitable for the present invention. Among these, the suspension polymerization method is considered suitable for the present invention in terms of the size of the generated particles, the properties of the capsule particle walls, the strength, and the like.
[0006]
Therefore, the suspension polymerization method will be described below. The suspension polymerization method is a method in which a monomer phase in which a polymerization initiator is dissolved is dispersed in a continuous phase incompatible with the monomer phase in a droplet form to produce spherical polymer particles. . The suspension polymerization method in the present invention will be described in detail. An oil-soluble polymerization initiator and a water-insoluble monomer in which inorganic or organic fine particles and a coloring material are dispersed or dissolved are contained in a dispersant containing a suspension stabilizer. In this method, polymerization is carried out in a dispersion system dispersed as oil droplets in water to produce polymer capsule particles containing inorganic or organic fine particles and a coloring material. Therefore, the monomer used in the present invention is preferably a monomer that is insoluble or hardly soluble in water, and any monomer that can be radically polymerized can be used without limitation. Specific examples of such monomers include polymerizable unsaturated aromatics such as styrene, chlorostyrene, α-methylstyrene, divinylbenzene, vinyltoluene, acrylic acid, methacrylic acid, itaconic acid, maleic acid, fumaric acid and the like. Polymerizable unsaturated carboxylic acids, polymerizable unsaturated sulfonic acids such as styrene sulfonic acid soda or salts thereof, methyl methacrylate, methyl acrylate, ethyl methacrylate, ethyl acrylate, n-butyl methacrylate, n-butyl acrylate , 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate, 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate, glycidyl methacrylate, glycidyl acrylate, ethylene glycol dimethacrylate, ethylene glycol diacrylate, acrylonitrile, methacrylonitrile, methacryloyl , Acrolein, methacrylamide, acrylamide, butadiene, isoprene, vinyl pyridine, N- vinylpyrrolidone, and the like conjugated dienes. Various polyfunctional compounds or monomers can also be used as crosslinkers. Examples of such include divinylbenzene, divinylnaphthalene, divinylcyclohexane, 1,3-dipropenylbenzene, ethylene glycol dimethacrylate, ethylene glycol diacrylate, diethylene glycol diacrylate, diethylene glycol dimethacrylate, butylene glycol, trimethylol ethane triacrylate, Examples include trimethylolethane trimethacrylate, pentaerythritol tetramethacrylate, pentaerythritol tetraacrylate and the like.
[0007]
As the polymerization initiator, a water-insoluble or hardly soluble polymerization initiator is preferable, and any radical polymerization initiator can be used without limitation. 2,2'-azobisisobutyronitrile, 2,2'-azobis (2-methylpropanenitrile), 2,2'-azobis- (2,4-dimethylpentanenitrile), 2,2'-azobis- (2-methylbutanenitrile), 1,1′-azobis- (cyclohexanecarbonitrile), 2,2′-azobis- (2,4-dimethyl-4-methoxyvaleronitrile), 2,2′-azobis- (2 -Aminodipropane) azo (azobisnitrile) type initiators such as hydrochloride, benzoyl peroxide, cumene hydroperoxide, acetyl peroxide, hydrogen peroxide, lauroyl peroxide, persulfate, (ammonium persulfate), peroxy Of peroxide type such as oxidized esters (eg t-butyl peroctate, α-cumyl peroxypivalate and t-butyl peroctate) Initiator, and the like.
[0008]
The organic fine particles to be encapsulated in the capsule particles can be similarly prepared by a suspension polymerization method. Dissolve the above water-insoluble or poorly soluble monomer and a polymerization initiator soluble in the monomer, stir and disperse in water containing a suspension stabilizer at high speed, generate oil droplets, and apply temperature to radical polymerization. Can be prepared by initiating. At this time, it is possible to obtain hard organic fine particles or soft organic fine particles by appropriately selecting the kind of monomer, and the hardness of the core substance also affects the erasability. Commercially available inorganic or organic fine particles may also be used. Cross-linked polystyrene acrylic particles SX8703 and SX704 manufactured by JSR Co., Ltd. Cross-linked acrylic monodispersed particles MX series and cross-linked polystyrene particles SGP series manufactured by Soken Chemical Co., Ltd. and God Ball E-made by Suzuki Oil & Fat Co., Ltd. Porous silica spherical particles such as 2C and E-6C can be used, and in some cases, classification is preferable. Any spherical particles having a particle diameter of 12 μm or less can be used without being limited to the above.
The inorganic or organic fine particles may be hollow particles. The specific gravity of the coloring material and the inorganic or organic fine particle-encapsulating capsule particles is used to match the specific gravity of the dispersion medium of the ink composition, and by adjusting the specific gravity. It is possible to improve the temporal stability by preventing the capsule particles from settling. The organic hollow fine particles can be similarly prepared by a suspension polymerization method, and the preparation method will be described below. A monomer in which bubbles are finely dispersed by dissolving a water-insoluble or hardly-soluble monomer and a monomer that is soluble in the monomer and dissolving a polymerization initiator, further adding a large amount of an oil-soluble surfactant, and stirring at high speed, Fine particles having a gas as a core can be formed by stirring and dispersing in water containing a suspension stabilizer at high speed, generating oil droplets and applying temperature to initiate radical polymerization.
Further, commercially available hollow inorganic or organic fine particles as described below may be used. Cross-linked polystyrene acrylic hollow particles SX866 manufactured by JSR Corporation, cross-linked polystyrene acrylic hollow particles GRANDOLL PP2000S manufactured by Dainippon Ink & Chemicals, Inc., SILAX-MS manufactured by Sylax Corporation Hollow porous silica spherical particles such as ultrafine particle shirasu balloons or God Ball B-6C manufactured by Suzuki Oil & Fats Co., Ltd. can be used. In some cases, classification is preferable. Further, hollow particles having a specific gravity of 1.2 or less and a particle diameter of 12 μm or less can be used without being limited to the above.
[0009]
The inorganic or organic fine particles may be used in capsule particles at least one kind or two kinds or more. Further, two or more kinds of capsule particles having different kinds such as color material and inorganic fine particle-encapsulated capsule particles and color material and organic fine particle-encapsulated capsule particles may be mixed in the ink composition.

These pigments and dyes may be used alone or in combination.
A suspension stabilizer is used in the suspension polymerization. Suspension stabilizers include gelatin, polyvinyl alcohol, water-soluble polymers such as methylcellulose and carboxymethylcellulose, surfactants such as sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate and sodium dodecylsulfate, or tricalcium phosphate, calcium carbonate, and carbon dioxide. It is preferable to use a solid fine powder such as titanium or nickel dioxide.
[0010]
Since the inorganic or organic fine particles and the color material are encapsulated in the capsule particles by the above-described method, it is a necessary condition that they are well dispersed in the monomer phase. Therefore, in order to make it easy to disperse the inorganic or organic fine particles and the coloring material in the monomer phase, the surface of the inorganic or organic fine particles and the coloring material is surface-treated with a silane coupling agent, a titanate coupling agent and a surfactant. It is good to apply. These coupling agents are appropriately selected according to the surface properties of the inorganic or organic fine particles and the color material.
