Aqueous ionically stabilized dispersions

摘要

Ionically stabilized dispersions are described that are substantially free of steric stabilization of the pigment. These ionically stabilized dispersions are obtained from polymeric dispersants where the hydrophilic components are minimized. These stabilized dispersions can be utilized to prepare ink jet inks which when printed result in improved optical density and chroma. The stability of the ionically stabilized dispersions are sufficient for ink jet inks.
