GALLIUM NAPHTHALOCYANINE SALTS EXHIBITING REDUCED KOGATION

摘要

A sulfonated dye salt of formula (II): wherein M is Ga(A1); A1 is an axial ligand selected from the group consisting of: —OH and halogen; and Z1+, Z2+, Z3+ and Z4+ are independently selected from the group consisting of: H and an ammonium cation including 3 or more hydroxyl groups. At least one of Z1+, Z2+, Z3+ and Z4+ is the ammonium cation. Such salts exhibit reduced kogation in thermal bubble-forming inkjet printheads.
