Description

本発明は印刷用塗工紙および封筒用紙に関する。   The present invention relates to coated printing paper and envelope paper.

近年、印刷分野では小ロット化および短納期化の傾向が強まっており、インキ乾燥性が重要な指標の一つとなっている。インキ乾燥性が劣ると、印刷後の印字物を重ねた際にインキが他方に転移する「裏移り」の問題が発生しやすい。そのため、印刷物と紙との密着を防止するために澱粉等のパウダーを使用したり、重ねた後に擦れが生じないように静置したりするなどの対策が取られている。特に両面印刷を行う場合は、上記「裏移り」が発生すると印刷画像が汚損されて印刷物の価値が著しく損なわれるため、片面印刷後の静置時間を長くとり、「裏移り」が発生しなくなるまでインキを乾燥させる必要がある。インキの乾燥性が劣るとこの静置時間が長くなるため作業効率が低下する。さらに、両面印刷においては反対面に印刷を施す際に、ロール等により既に印刷された面の印刷画像が擦られるため、インキの乾燥性が劣ると印刷画像が汚損されるおそれがある。この傾向は、光沢の低いマット調塗工紙においてより顕著である。マット調塗工紙は光沢塗工紙に比べて表面の凹凸が大きいので、紙の表面に乗ったインキが沈み込みやすく印刷濃度を上げるためにはインキを多めに転移させる必要があり乾燥性が低下するからである。よって、印刷速度の向上や両面印刷に対応するためインキが速やかに乾燥する性能が求められている。この要求に対応するために、カオリン等の扁平顔料を含む顔料塗工層を設ける技術が提案されている(特許文献1)。   In recent years, in the printing field, there is an increasing tendency toward smaller lots and shorter delivery times, and ink dryness is one of the important indicators. If the ink dryness is poor, the problem of “offset” in which the ink transfers to the other when the printed materials are overlaid tends to occur. Therefore, measures such as using a powder such as starch to prevent the printed matter and the paper from adhering to each other, or allowing the powder to stand still without rubbing after stacking are taken. Especially when performing double-sided printing, if the above-mentioned "set-off" occurs, the printed image will be stained and the value of the printed matter will be significantly impaired. It is necessary to dry the ink until. If the drying property of the ink is poor, this standing time will be long and the work efficiency will be reduced. Furthermore, in double-sided printing, when printing is performed on the opposite side, the printed image on the already printed side is rubbed by a roll or the like, so that the poorly dried ink may stain the printed image. This tendency is more remarkable in the low gloss matte coated paper. Since matte coated paper has larger surface irregularities than gloss coated paper, the ink on the surface of the paper tends to sink and it is necessary to transfer a large amount of ink to increase the printing density Because it will decrease. Therefore, in order to improve the printing speed and cope with double-sided printing, the ability of the ink to dry quickly is required. In order to meet this demand, a technique of providing a pigment coating layer containing a flat pigment such as kaolin has been proposed (Patent Document 1).

ところで、印刷用紙の用途の一つに封筒用途がある。封筒は加工工程において、断裁、接着剤による糊付けの後、封筒の形に成形される。封筒は他人に見られたくない文書や偽造を防止したい文書の送付に使用されることが多いため、封筒には高い機密保持性能が求められる。封筒の機密性保持性能としては、内容物が透過して見えないことと、接着箇所からの開封が容易でないことが挙げられる。これまで、内容物が透過して見えない不透明性を持った封筒用紙に関しては、原紙に酸化チタンなどの光散乱性の高い顔料を使用し、さらに紙表面を着色することで不透明性を高める技術や(特許文献2)、封筒の内面に印刷を施すことで内容物の文字などを判別し難くする技術などが知られている。しかしながら、封筒の接着箇所における開封性に関する詳細な検討はあまりなされてこなかった。一般的に、剥離した形跡が残りにくい接着剤層内での剥離や、紙表面と接着剤間での剥離は、封筒を開封され中の文書を偽造されてしまう恐れがあることから好ましくないとされ、原紙層での紙層間剥離を伴う剥離が好ましいとされている。前述のインキ乾燥性に優れた印刷用塗工紙は、接着剤に対しても優れた吸収性を示すため、結果的に紙表面に保持される接着剤が少なくなり十分な接着強度が得られず接着剤層内の剥離が発生してしまう。よって、インキ乾燥性と封筒剥離性は両立することが困難であると考えられていた。   By the way, one of the uses of printing paper is for envelopes. In the processing step, the envelope is cut and glued with an adhesive, and then formed into an envelope shape. Envelopes are often used to send documents that others do not want to be seen or forgery-prevented documents, so envelopes are required to have high confidentiality performance. As the airtightness-keeping performance of the envelope, it is possible to see that the contents are transparent and invisible, and that it is not easy to open the envelope from the bonded portion. Up to now, for envelope paper that has opacity so that the contents cannot pass through it, a technology that increases the opacity by using a pigment with a high light scattering property such as titanium oxide as the base paper and coloring the paper surface In addition, (Patent Document 2), there is known a technique of making it difficult to distinguish characters and the like of contents by printing the inner surface of an envelope. However, detailed studies on the unsealing property at the bonded portion of the envelope have not been made much. Generally, peeling within the adhesive layer where the trace of peeling is unlikely to remain or peeling between the paper surface and the adhesive is not preferable because the envelope may be opened and the document inside may be forged. Therefore, peeling involving peeling of the paper layers in the base paper layer is preferable. The above-mentioned coated paper for printing, which has excellent ink drying properties, also exhibits excellent absorbency for adhesives, and as a result, less adhesive is retained on the paper surface and sufficient adhesive strength is obtained. Instead, peeling occurs in the adhesive layer. Therefore, it has been considered difficult to achieve both ink drying property and envelope peeling property.

発明者らは特許文献1に記載のインキ乾燥性に優れた印刷用塗工紙を封筒に適用して貼合部の剥離性を検討したところ、紙層間や接着剤層内での剥離ではなく、塗工層内部での剥離が生じていることを見出した。塗工層内部での剥離は偽造防止の観点から好ましくない。カオリンなどの扁平顔料の主面は酸性、側面は塩基性であり(非特許文献1)、一般に封筒用の接着剤は一般に酸性基を含む。したがって塗工層内部での剥離は扁平顔料の主面と接着剤の親和性が低いことと、扁平顔料の側面は塩基性であるので接着剤との親和性が高いが面積が小さく充分な接着面積が達成できないことに起因すると推察された。よって、本発明は、優れた封筒剥離性とインキ速乾性とを備える印刷用塗工紙を提供することを課題とする。   The inventors applied the coated paper for printing having excellent ink drying property described in Patent Document 1 to an envelope and examined the releasability of the bonded portion, and found that it was not peeled between the paper layers or within the adhesive layer. It was found that peeling occurred inside the coating layer. Peeling inside the coating layer is not preferable from the viewpoint of preventing forgery. The main surface of a flat pigment such as kaolin is acidic and the side surface is basic (Non-Patent Document 1), and the adhesive for envelopes generally contains an acidic group. Therefore, the peeling inside the coating layer has a low affinity for the main surface of the flat pigment and the adhesive, and the side surface of the flat pigment is basic, so it has a high affinity for the adhesive but a small area and sufficient adhesion. It was speculated that the area could not be achieved. Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a coated paper for printing, which has excellent envelope peeling property and ink quick drying property.

(1)顔料塗工層
1)顔料
顔料塗工層は平均粒子径(D50)が0.80μm以下の炭酸カルシウム(以下、「第1の炭酸カルシウム」ともいう)を含む。D50は体積50%平均粒子径である。沈降法による顔料の粒度分布およびD50は、Malvern社製、マスターサイザー3000等により測定可能である。本発明ではこのような超微粒の炭酸カルシウムを用いることで、優れた封筒剥離性とインキ速乾性とを両立できる。この観点から、第1の炭酸カルシウムのD50の上限は0.75μm以下であることが好ましく、0.70μm以下であることがより好ましく、下限は0.50μm以上であることが好ましく、0.55μm以上であることがより好ましい。
(1) Pigment coating layer 1) Pigment The pigment coating layer contains calcium carbonate having an average particle diameter (D50) of 0.80 μm or less (hereinafter, also referred to as “first calcium carbonate”). D50 is a volume 50% average particle diameter. The particle size distribution and D50 of the pigment by the sedimentation method can be measured with a Mastersizer 3000 manufactured by Malvern. In the present invention, by using such ultrafine calcium carbonate, it is possible to achieve both excellent envelope releasability and quick ink drying property. From this viewpoint, the upper limit of D50 of the first calcium carbonate is preferably 0.75 μm or less, more preferably 0.70 μm or less, and the lower limit is preferably 0.50 μm or more, 0.55 μm. The above is more preferable.

顔料塗工層が原紙の両面に存在する場合は、一方の面の顔料塗工層が第1の炭酸カルシウムを含めばよいが、両面の顔料塗工層が第1の炭酸カルシウムを含むことが好ましい。また、顔料塗工層は一方の面に複数存在してもよいが、この場合、少なくとも最外顔料塗工層が第1の炭酸カルシウムを含むことが好ましい。   When the pigment coating layers are present on both sides of the base paper, the pigment coating layers on one side may contain the first calcium carbonate, but the pigment coating layers on both sides may contain the first calcium carbonate. preferable. Further, a plurality of pigment coating layers may be present on one surface, but in this case, it is preferable that at least the outermost pigment coating layer contains the first calcium carbonate.

顔料塗工層を1層備える場合、第1の炭酸カルシウムの配合量の下限は、当該顔料塗工層中の顔料100重量部中、40重量部以上であることが好ましく、45重量部以上であることが好ましい。また、第1の炭酸カルシウムの配合量の上限は、当該顔料塗工層中の顔料100重量部中、70重量部以下であることが好ましく、60重量部以下であることがより好ましく、55重量部以下であることがさらに好ましい。一方の面に顔料塗工層を2層以上備える場合、少なくとも1層の顔料塗工層が前記量の第1の炭酸カルシウムを含むことが好ましく、最外顔料塗工層が前記量の第1の炭酸カルシウムを含むことがより好ましい。第1の炭酸カルシウムは、重質炭酸カルシウムまたはパルプ製造工程の苛性化工程で製造された軽質炭酸カルシウム(苛性化軽質炭酸カルシウム、特許5274077号公報参照)であることが好ましい。   When one layer of the pigment coating layer is provided, the lower limit of the blending amount of the first calcium carbonate is preferably 40 parts by weight or more, and 45 parts by weight or more in 100 parts by weight of the pigment in the pigment coating layer. Preferably there is. The upper limit of the amount of the first calcium carbonate compounded is preferably 70 parts by weight or less, more preferably 60 parts by weight or less, and 55 parts by weight, based on 100 parts by weight of the pigment in the pigment coating layer. It is more preferable that the amount is not more than part. When one surface is provided with two or more pigment coating layers, it is preferable that at least one pigment coating layer contains the above amount of the first calcium carbonate, and the outermost pigment coating layer is the above amount of the first calcium carbonate. It is more preferable to include calcium carbonate. The first calcium carbonate is preferably heavy calcium carbonate or light calcium carbonate manufactured in the causticizing step of the pulp manufacturing step (causticized light calcium carbonate, see Japanese Patent No. 5274077).

顔料塗工層中の第1の炭酸カルシウム以外の白色顔料として、当該分野で通常使用されている顔料を用いることができる。その例としては、カオリン、クレー、エンジニアードカオリン、デラミネーテッドクレー、重質炭酸カルシウム、軽質炭酸カルシウム、タルク、二酸化チタン、硫酸バリウム、硫酸カルシウム、酸化亜鉛、珪酸、珪酸塩、コロイダルシリカ、サチンホワイトなどの無機顔料、および密実型、中空型、またはコアーシェル型などの有機顔料が挙げられる。これらの顔料は複数種を組合せて使用してもよい。   As the white pigment other than the first calcium carbonate in the pigment coating layer, a pigment usually used in this field can be used. Examples thereof include kaolin, clay, engineered kaolin, delaminated clay, heavy calcium carbonate, light calcium carbonate, talc, titanium dioxide, barium sulfate, calcium sulfate, zinc oxide, silicic acid, silicate, colloidal silica, satin. Inorganic pigments such as white, and organic pigments such as solid, hollow, or core-shell types are mentioned. You may use these pigments in combination of multiple types.

第1の炭酸カルシウム以外の白色顔料として、D50が0.80μmを超える重質炭酸カルシウムまたは軽質炭酸カルシウム(以下、「第2の炭酸カルシウム」ともいう)を用いることが好ましい。炭酸カルシウムは接着剤(バインダー)との結着性に優れかつ白色度を向上するので、インキ乾燥性と封筒剥離性を両立しさらに高い白色度および印刷適性を達成できる。顔料塗工層を1層備える場合、当該顔料塗工層中の顔料100重量部中、第1および第2の炭酸カルシウムの合計量は90重量部以上が好ましく、100重量部がより好ましい。一方の面に顔料塗工層を2層以上備える場合、少なくとも1層の顔料塗工層における第1および第2の炭酸カルシウムの合計量が前記範囲であることが好ましく、最外顔料塗工層における当該合計量が前記範囲であることがより好ましい。第2の炭酸カルシウムは、重質炭酸カルシウムまたは苛性化軽質炭酸カルシウムであることが好ましい。   As the white pigment other than the first calcium carbonate, it is preferable to use heavy calcium carbonate or light calcium carbonate having a D50 of more than 0.80 μm (hereinafter, also referred to as “second calcium carbonate”). Since calcium carbonate has excellent binding properties with an adhesive (binder) and improves whiteness, it is possible to achieve both ink drying properties and envelope releasability and achieve higher whiteness and printability. When one pigment coating layer is provided, the total amount of the first and second calcium carbonates is preferably 90 parts by weight or more, and more preferably 100 parts by weight, based on 100 parts by weight of the pigment in the pigment coating layer. When two or more pigment coating layers are provided on one surface, the total amount of the first and second calcium carbonates in at least one pigment coating layer is preferably within the above range, and the outermost pigment coating layer. It is more preferable that the total amount of the above is within the above range. The second calcium carbonate is preferably ground calcium carbonate or causticized light calcium carbonate.

2)接着剤
顔料塗工層はマトリックスとして接着剤(バインダー)を含む。接着剤は限定されず、公知の接着剤を使用できる。その例としては、スチレン・ブタジエン系共重合体、スチレン・アクリル系共重合体、エチレン・酢酸ビニル系共重合体、ブタジエン・メチルメタクリレート系共重合体、酢酸ビニル・ブチルアクリレート系共重合体、無水マレイン酸共重合体、アクリル酸・メチルメタクリレート系共重合体等のラテックス;完全ケン化ポリビニルアルコール、部分ケン化ポリビニルアルコール、カルボキシ変性ポリビニルアルコール、アセトアセチル変性ポリビニルアルコール等のポリビニルアルコール類;カゼイン、大豆蛋白、合成蛋白等の蛋白質類;酸化澱粉、陽性澱粉、尿素燐酸エステル化澱粉、ヒドロキシエチルエーテル化澱粉などのエーテル化澱粉、デキストリン等の澱粉類;カルボキシメチルセルロース、ヒドロキシエチルセルロース、ヒドロキシメチルセルロース等のセルロース誘導体等が挙げられる。これらの複数種を組合せて使用できる。
2) Adhesive The pigment coating layer contains an adhesive (binder) as a matrix. The adhesive is not limited, and known adhesives can be used. Examples thereof include styrene / butadiene type copolymers, styrene / acrylic type copolymers, ethylene / vinyl acetate type copolymers, butadiene / methyl methacrylate type copolymers, vinyl acetate / butyl acrylate type copolymers, anhydrous Latex of maleic acid copolymer, acrylic acid / methyl methacrylate copolymer, etc .; polyvinyl alcohol such as fully saponified polyvinyl alcohol, partially saponified polyvinyl alcohol, carboxy-modified polyvinyl alcohol, acetoacetyl-modified polyvinyl alcohol; casein, soybean Proteins such as proteins and synthetic proteins; oxidized starch, positive starch, urea phosphate esterified starch, etherified starch such as hydroxyethyl etherified starch, starch such as dextrin; carboxymethyl cellulose, hydroxyethyl cellulose, hydrid Cellulose derivatives such as carboxymethyl cellulose and the like. These plural types can be used in combination.

接着剤の量は、印刷適性、塗工適性の点から、全顔料塗工層中の顔料100重量部に対して5〜30重量部であることが好ましく、8〜25重量部であることがより好ましい。接着剤の総量が25重量部を越える場合、顔料塗工液の粘度が高くなり塗工時に操業トラブルが生じ易い。さらに、インキの乾燥性が低下する傾向が見られる。一方、接着剤の総量が5重量部未満であると十分な表面強度を得にくくなる。   From the viewpoints of printability and coating suitability, the amount of the adhesive is preferably 5 to 30 parts by weight, and preferably 8 to 25 parts by weight, based on 100 parts by weight of the pigment in the entire pigment coating layer. More preferable. When the total amount of the adhesive exceeds 25 parts by weight, the viscosity of the pigment coating solution becomes high and operating troubles are likely to occur during coating. Further, there is a tendency that the drying property of the ink is lowered. On the other hand, if the total amount of the adhesive is less than 5 parts by weight, it becomes difficult to obtain sufficient surface strength.

本発明の印刷用塗工紙は、全接着剤中10〜80重量%のエマルションの形態であるスチレン・ブタジエン系共重合体ラテックスを含むことが好ましく、15〜70重量%のラテックスを含むことが好ましい。顔料塗工層が2層以上の場合、原紙に最も近い層は全接着剤中10〜80重量%のラテックスを含むことが好ましく、原紙に遠い層は30〜60重量%のラテックスを含むことが好ましく、ラテックスとしてはスチレン・ブタジエン系ラテックスが好ましい。他の接着剤としては澱粉類を用いることが特に好ましく、その量は原紙に最も近い層では全接着剤中30〜90重量%であることが好ましく、原紙に遠い層では40〜70重量%であることが好ましい。ラテックスと比較して澱粉類は顔料塗工液の保水性を高めるため、原紙への塗工液の沈み込みが生じにくく、顔料塗工層で原紙を効果的に被覆することができる。言い換えれば、澱粉類を使用すると、顔料塗工層による原紙の被覆性が良好となる。その結果、印刷品質、特に印刷光沢度の向上と、インキ乾燥性の向上が期待できる。本発明においては、ラテックスと澱粉類の割合が、3:5〜5:7であることが好ましい。   The printing coated paper of the present invention preferably contains 10 to 80% by weight of the styrene / butadiene copolymer latex in the form of an emulsion in the total adhesive, and preferably 15 to 70% by weight of the latex. preferable. When there are two or more pigment coating layers, the layer closest to the base paper preferably contains 10 to 80% by weight of latex in the total adhesive, and the layer far from the base paper contains 30 to 60% by weight of latex. Preferably, the latex is a styrene / butadiene latex. It is particularly preferable to use starches as the other adhesive, and the amount thereof is preferably 30 to 90% by weight in the total adhesive in the layer closest to the base paper and 40 to 70% by weight in the layer far from the base paper. Preferably there is. Since starches increase the water retention of the pigment coating liquid as compared with latex, it is difficult for the coating liquid to sink into the base paper and the pigment coating layer can effectively coat the base paper. In other words, the use of starch improves the coverage of the base paper with the pigment coating layer. As a result, it can be expected that the printing quality, especially the printing glossiness, and the ink drying property are improved. In the present invention, the ratio of latex to starch is preferably 3: 5 to 5: 7.

3)他の添加剤

3.紙質
(1)剥離指数
本発明の印刷用塗工紙は35〜55の剥離指数を有することが好ましい。剥離指数とは封筒における糊付け部の接着性の目安であり、この値が高いほど原紙層での剥離が起こりやすいこと、すなわち接着性に優れることを示す。この範囲の剥離指数を有する本発明の印刷用塗工紙は封筒用紙として好適である。剥離指数は以下の方法で得られる。
厚さ40μmのPETフィルムであって、中央部に幅5mm、長さ70mmの開口部を有するPETフィルムを準備する。

3. Paper quality (1) Peeling index The coated paper for printing of the present invention preferably has a peeling index of 35 to 55. The peeling index is a measure of the adhesiveness of the glued portion in the envelope, and the higher this value, the easier the peeling of the base paper layer to occur, that is, the better the adhesiveness. The printing coated paper of the present invention having a release index in this range is suitable as an envelope paper. The peeling index is obtained by the following method.
A PET film having a thickness of 40 μm and having an opening having a width of 5 mm and a length of 70 mm in the central portion is prepared.
Prepare a set of paper samples to be evaluated. The size of each sample is 50 mm in width and 100 mm in length.
The PET film is overlaid on one of the paper samples (A), and glue is evenly applied to the openings so that the thickness is about 40 μm.
The other paper sample (B) is quickly overlaid thereon and left under a load of 4.17 g / cm 2 for 1 minute, and then the load is released and after 4 minutes, peeling is performed by hand.
When the area of the peeled paper sample (A) to which the glue was applied was visually observed, and when peeling was observed in areas other than the glue layer, SEM-EDS was used to measure 12 at 4 mm intervals in the longitudinal direction of the opening. Point observation (field of view: length 1.9 mm x width 2.6 mm) is performed, and the ratio of C (carbon), O (oxygen), Al (aluminum), Si (silica), and Ca (calcium) at each point is measured. The peeling index is the average value of the proportions of C at a total of 8 points excluding the upper 2 points and the lower 2 points of each numerical value. On the other hand, when peeling is confirmed in the glue layer, the peeling index is set to zero. The larger the peeling index, the easier the peeling of the base paper layer, that is, the better the envelope suitability. On the other hand, the lower the peeling index, the easier the peeling of the coating layer, that is, the poorer the envelope suitability.

(3) White paper glossiness The white paper glossiness is an index indicating the glossiness of a white paper, and is measured according to JIS-P8142 in the present invention. In order to exhibit an excellent matte tone, the white paper glossiness is preferably 40% or less, more preferably 35% or less, and further preferably less than 30%. The lower limit of the white paper glossiness is not limited, but is preferably 15% or more. When the white paper glossiness is within the above range, there is an advantage that the print is easy to recognize without glare, and it is hard to slip when the envelope is formed.

(4)坪量
本発明の印刷用塗工紙の坪量は60〜250g/mであることが好ましく、70〜210g/mであることがより好ましい。

(5) Ink Dryability The coated paper for printing of the present invention is excellent in ink dryability. The superiority or inferiority of the ink drying property of the coated paper for printing is generally identified by confirming the set-off that the ink is transferred to the other when the printed matters are piled up on the other side after printing and the rubbing stain on the printed surface.

(5−1)窒素吸着法(紙の全細孔容積)による評価
本発明においては、低圧条件下で測定できる窒素吸着法を用いて顔料塗工層の細孔構造を定評的に評価することで、本発明の印刷用塗工紙のインキ乾燥性を評価できる。顔料塗工層と溶剤吸収性との関係については、顔料塗工層中に存在する多数の微細な孔を毛細管の集合体として捉えた(1)式に示すLucas−Washburnの式が広く用いられている。ここで、Lは溶剤の浸透深さ、rは毛細管の平均半径、tは時間、γは溶剤の表面張力、θは毛細管壁と溶剤の接触角、ηは溶剤の粘度である。そして、顔料塗工層の細孔構造を平均半径rの円筒菅がn個並んだものと仮定すると、顔料塗工層へのインキ溶剤浸透量νは式(2)で表されるから、式(1)は式(3)のように変形できる。dは顔料塗工層の厚さ、Vは顔料塗工層の細孔容積、kはインキの粘度である。つまり、顔料塗工層中の細孔直径、細孔容積が大きいほど、また顔料塗工層厚さが小さいほど一定時間あたりの溶剤浸透量は多くなり、インキ乾燥性は向上すると考えられる。本発明においては、トライスター3000によって得られた細孔容積を、顔料塗工層の細孔容積とみなし、平均細孔直径を、顔料塗工層の平均細孔直径とみなす。
(5-1) Evaluation by Nitrogen Adsorption Method (Total Pore Volume of Paper) In the present invention, the pore structure of the pigment coating layer is evaluated remarkably by using a nitrogen adsorption method that can be measured under low pressure conditions. Thus, the ink drying property of the printing coated paper of the present invention can be evaluated. Regarding the relationship between the pigment coating layer and the solvent absorbability, the Lucas-Washburn equation shown in the equation (1) in which a large number of fine pores existing in the pigment coating layer are regarded as an assembly of capillaries is widely used. ing. Here, L is the penetration depth of the solvent, r is the average radius of the capillary, t is time, γ is the surface tension of the solvent, θ is the contact angle between the capillary wall and the solvent, and η is the viscosity of the solvent. Assuming that the cylindrical structure of the pigment coating layer has n cylindrical tubes with an average radius r, the ink solvent penetration amount ν into the pigment coating layer is expressed by equation (2). Equation (1) can be transformed into equation (3). d is the thickness of the pigment coating layer, V is the pore volume of the pigment coating layer, and k is the viscosity of the ink. That is, it is considered that the larger the pore diameter and the pore volume in the pigment coating layer, and the smaller the pigment coating layer thickness, the larger the solvent permeation amount per constant time and the ink drying property is improved. In the present invention, the pore volume obtained by Tristar 3000 is regarded as the pore volume of the pigment coating layer, and the average pore diameter is regarded as the average pore diameter of the pigment coating layer.
