Transfer ink jet recording method

摘要

An image recording method includes applying a liquid composition containing a reaction agent to a region of an intermediate transfer member, applying an ink containing a coloring material to at least part of the region to form an intermediate image, and transferring the intermediate image to a recording medium. The intermediate transfer member has a surface on which water forms a contact angle of 40 degrees or more with the surface. The reaction agent precipitates or aggregates the coloring material. The liquid composition has a pH of 6.0 or less and contains a polyether siloxane compound expressed by the following general formula:;

1. An image recording method comprising:
applying a liquid composition to a region of an intermediate transfer member, the liquid composition containing a reaction agent that will precipitate or aggregate a coloring material contained in an ink; forming an intermediate image by applying the ink to at least part of the region of the intermediate transfer member; and transferring the intermediate image to a recording medium, wherein the intermediate transfer member has a surface on which water forms a contact angle of 40 degrees or more with the surface of the intermediate transfer member, and the liquid composition has a pH of 6.0 or less and contains a polyether siloxane compound expressed by the following general formula: wherein R1 to R4 and R6 to R11 each represent hydrogen or an organic group, R5 represents an organic group, x, y and a each represent an integer of 1 or more, and z and b each represent an integer of 0 or more.
