The research progress in recording layer of the inkjet printing materials

Inkjet printing has become a prevailing printing technology due to its practicability and rapidity. The color inkjet printing as one of the inkjet printing has color comprehensive and high clarity compared with traditional printing. The key point of the color inkjet printing is the introducing of special recording layer which has great influence on the printing quality. However, the printing quality of the color inkjet printing depends on the compositions and performance of the recording layer and the infiltration behavior between the ink and the recording layer. Specially, the theoretical study of the infiltration behavior between the ink and the recording layer is the key to guiding the structural design. In this review, the types and compositions of the recording layer were clearly analyzed, the process and evaluation methods of ink infiltration and the performance evaluation system of the recording layer were also summarized. Ultimately, the current bottleneck and the development trend of the recording layer were put forward.

Automated summary

Inkjet printing technology has become popular due to its practicality and speed, with color inkjet printing offering rich color and high clarity compared to traditional printing. The quality of color inkjet printing depends on the special recording layer and the infiltration behavior between ink and the recording layer. Understanding the types, compositions, and infiltration behavior of the recording layer is crucial for guiding structural design and improving printing quality.
