Organometallic salts for inkjet receptor media

摘要

Organometallic salts useful for inkjet receptor media are disclosed. The organometallic salt can be a multivalent metal derivative of an aromatic carboxylic, sulfocarboxylic, sulfophenolic, or combination thereof. The aromatic moiety can be a simple aromatic, a condensed aromatic, a heterocyclic aromatic or a combination thereof. The multivalent metal ion can be derived from the group IIA to VIA and Group IB to VIIIB of elements in the Periodic Table. The organometallic salt simultaneously releases the multivalent metal cation and the organic acid anion for both pigment management and ink-drying.
