Description: PRINTING INK COMPOSITIONS HAVING SUPERIOR SMEAR-FASTNESS TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates generally to ink-jet printing ink compositions having superior smearfastness, as compared to prior art ink-jet ink printing compositions, and, more particularly, to the use of core/shell .and other polymers, or bind- ers, with hydrophobic and hydrophilic portions that contribute to such superior smearfastness and additives to the inks that improve their print reliability. BACKGROUND ART Core/shell polymers are well-known; such polymers typically have a hydrophilic portion and a hydrophobic portion comprising a latex particle morphol- ogy consisting of an inner "core", surrounded by an outer "shell". Core/shell polymers are commonly used to disperse molecules or particles, such as pigments, which are ordinarily insoluble in water, but which, after association with the core/shell polymer, form stable dispersions in water. Dispersion occurs when the hydrophobic portion of the polymer associates with the water-insoluble molecule or particle, and the hydrophilic portion of the polymer disperses with water. U.S. Patent 4,597,794 discloses the dispersion of pigments in an aqueous vehicle, using aqueous binders comprising both hydrophilic and hydrophobic components. The dispersion of the pigment is followed by centrifugation to eliminate the non-dispersed components such as agglomerates. Examples of the hydro- philic component comprise polymers of monomers having a mainly additively polymerizable vinyl group, into which hydrophilic construction portions such as carboxylic acid groups, sulfonic acid groups, sulfate groups, etc. are introduced by using a predetermined amount of an α,β-unsaturated monomer such as acrylic acid, methacrylic acid, crotonic acid, itaconic acid, itaconic acid monoester, maleic acid, maleic acid monoester, fumaric acid, fumaric acid monoester, vinyl sulfonic acid, sulfoethyl methacrylate, sulfopropyl methacrylate, sulfonated vinylnaph- thalene, etc. Examples of the hydrophobic portion comprise polymers of mono- SUBSTTTUTE SHEET (RULE 25) mers selected from the group consisting of styrene, styrene derivatives, vinyl- naphthalene, vinylnaphthalene derivatives, and α,β-ethylenic unsaturated carboxylate of aliphatic alcohol having C 8 -C 18 . In addition to the foregoing monomers, also included are acrylonitrile, vinylidene chloride, ,β-ethylenic unsaturated carboxylate, vinyl acetate, vinyl chloride, acrylamide, methacrylamide, hydroxyethyl methacrylate, hydroxypropyl methacrylate, glycidyl methacrylate, N- methylol acrylamide, N-butoxymethyl acrylamide, etc. U.S. Patent 5,082,757 discloses encapsulated toner compositions comprising a core and a hydroxylated polyurethane microcapsule shell derived from the polycondensation of a polyisocyanate and a water soluble carbohydrate. The core comprises a polymer binder, pigment, dye, or mixtures thereof. Examples of the polymer binder include polymerized monomers selected from the group consisting of acrylates, methacrylates, and olefins including styrene and its derivatives. U.S. Patent 5,461,125 discloses waterborne core-shell latex polymers use- fill as adhesive films, rather than super-dispersion stability. The core comprises a (co)polymer comprising a (meth)acrylate ester, while the shell comprises a copolymer, the copolymer comprising (1) a nitrogen-bearing ethylenically- unsaturated free-radically polymerizable monomer, (2) at least one (meth)acrylate ester of about a C, to C M alcohol, and (3) an optional ethylenically-unsaturated free-radically polymerizable silane monomer, wherein the nitrogen-bearing ethylenically-unsaturated free-radically polymerizable monomer comprises about 15 to 60 wt% of the shell and wherein the core comprises about 40 to 85 wt% of the weight of the total core-shell latex particle. The polymers obtained by practicing the teachings of the disclosure have molecular weights of 400,000 or more, and the total low T g component (less than -10°C), where T g is the glass transition temperature, is greater than 60 wt%. U.S. Patent 5,656,071 discloses ink compositions useful for ink-jet applications. These compositions include an insoluble pigment and a polymeric dispersant. In one embodiment, the polymeric dispersant comprises block or graft co- polymers comprising a hydrophilic polymeric segment (particularly an acrylate or methacrylate copolymer) and a hydrophobic polymeric segment which includes a hydrolytically stable siloxyl substituent. SUBSTITUTE SHEET (RULE 25) Heretofore, ink-jet printers have not had printing performance and durable print properties of competitive printer technologies. The foregoing cited patents do not provide for useful, durable film- forming properties upon removal of the water or solvent. Film durability includes wet and dry rub resistance, highlighter smear- fastness, lightfastness, and waterfastness (e.g., hot and cold water, under spill, soak, .and rub conditions). In particular, formulating an ink-jet ink often involves compromising competing interests. For example, it is possible to enhance one property, such as durable film- forming of the colorant. However, such enhancement usually results in the degradation of another property, such as printing stability associated in thermal ink-jet with resistor fouling or nozzle clogging (kogation or decap - nozzle crusting). Many thermal ink-jet inks exhibit poor smearfastness due to the aqueous solubility of the colorant and/or the dispersibility of the colorant. Efforts continue to develop ink-jet printing ink compositions that evidence the level of smearfastness that a water-insoluble colorant, such as a pigment, possesses, while retaining other desirable printing characeristics. DISCLOSURE OF INVENTION In accordance with the invention, specific core-shell binders and certain additives for use in ink-jet printing ink compositions are provided. The specific core/shell binders have the general formula (I) [(A) m (B) n (C) p (D) q (E) r ] x (I) wherein A, B, C, D, and E represent functionalities as follows: A = at least one hydrophobic component contributing to improved durable, film-forming properties selected from moieties which, when homo-polymerized to a solid state, have a glass transition temperature (T g ) in the range between -150° and +25°C; B = at least one hydrophobic and solvent barrier moiety used to adjust the T g of the hydrophobic component of the polymer (I) which, when homo-polymerized to a solid state, has a T g greater than +25°C; C = at least one hydrophilic component, selected from a wide variety of water-soluble monomers (optional); D = at least one UV absorber (optional); E = a moiety having at least one highly polar functional group (optional); m = 10 to 30 wt%; n = 40 to 90 wt%; p = 0 to 30 wt%; q = 0 to 50 wt%; r = 0 to 40 wt%; m + n + p + q + r = 100 wt%; and x = 1 to 100,000, with the proviso that at least one of C and E must be present. The molecular weight (weight average) of polymer (I) is between about 1 ,000 and 2,000,000. The polymers useful in the practice of the invention are prepared by emulsifying the monomers and then conducting a free-radical polymerization in water. The additives employed in the practice of the present invention include water-soluble or water-dispersive amines, polyamines, polyalcohols, amine alcohols, polyesters, and organic acids. In the present invention, (a) water-soluble and/or water-dispersive amines and polyamines are found to be good stabilizers for anionic dispersive components, including emulsion polymers (primer, durable polymer, etc.), colorants (pigments, dyes, etc.); and SUBSTITUTE SHEET (RULE 25) (b) water-soluble and/or water-dispersive acids and polymeric acids are found to be good stabilizers for cationic dispersive components, including emulsion polymers (primer, durable polymer, etc.), colorants (pigments, dyes, etc.). It has also been found in the present invention, (c) in the case of inks employing anionic dispersive components (colorants, emulsion polymers, etc.), a combination of a suitable quantity of polymeric acid with a suitable amount of amines can further improve the print performance; and (d) in the case of inks employing cationic dispersive components (colorants, emulsion polymers, etc.), a combination of a suitable quantity of polyamines with a suitable amount of acids can further improve the print performance. It has further been found in the present invention, (e) the non-ionic water-soluble or water-dispersive polyalcohols and polyesters can improve the print performance of the ink comprising either cationic, anionic, and non-ionic dispersive components (colorants, emulsion polymers, etc.). The amine alcohols have the general formula (II) R,R 2 N(R)-OH (II) I x where R, and R 2 are independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, alkyl, alkoxy, aryl, and phenoxy, R is alkyl, and X is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, alkyl, aryl, -OH, -COOH, and -CHO. Alternatively, organic acids, whether water-soluble or water-insoluble, are employed in conjunction with the binder polymer in formulating the smear-fast inks of the present invention. The organic acids include polymeric acids as a subclass. The ink formulation of the present invention comprises: 5 to 50 wt% water-miscible solvent; 0.5 to 10 wt% color-ant; 0.1 to 10 wt% core/shell polymeric binder; 0.005 to 50 wt% additive; and water.

BEST MODES FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION Definitions The following definitions are made: The term "core/shell polymer" means a water-dispersive polymer comprised of a solid hydrophobic core surrounded by (either physically or chemically) a water-soluble shell component, or similar polymers of undefined mor- phology containing a mixture of hydrophobic and hydrophilic groups. The term "substituted" is meant to include alcohols (OH), esters (COOR), aldehydes (CHO), carboxylic acids (COOH), thiols (SH), amino groups (NH 2 , NHR, NR 2 ) nitro group (NO,), nitriles (CN), isocyanides (NC), cyanates (CNO), isocyanates (NCO), amido groups, epoxies, halogens, silox- anes, and pyrridinyls. The term "halogen" is meant to include fluorine, chlorine, bromine, and iodine. All concentrations are given in terms of weight percent (wt%), unless otherwise specified. All values of molecular weight of polymers are given in terms of weight average. Monomeric Moieties In accordance with the present invention, core-shell binders have the following general structure given by formula (I) [(A) m (B) n (C) p (D) q (E) r ] x (I) wherein A, B, C, D, and E represent functionalities as follows: A = at least one hydrophobic component contributing to improved durable, film- forming properties selected from moieties which, when homo-polymerized to a solid state, have a glass transition temperature (T g ) in the range between -150° and +25°C, preferably -100° to +10°C, more preferably from -60° to +0°C; SUBSTITUTE SHEET (RULE 25) B = at least one hydrophobic and solvent barrier moiety used to adjust the T g of the hydrophobic component of the polymer (I) which, when homopolymerized to a solid state, has a T g greater than +25°C; C = at least one hydrophilic component, selected from a wide va- riety of water-soluble monomers (optional); D = at least one UV absorber (optional); E = a moiety having at least one highly polar functional group (optional); m = 10 to 30 wt%; n = 40 to 90 wt; p = 0 to 30 wt; q = 0 to 50 wt; r = 0 to 40 wt%; m + n + p + q + r = 100 wt%; and x = 1 to 100,000, with the proviso that at least one of C and E must be present. Preferably, the core/shell polymer has the structure given by formula (T) A v B y C' z (T) where A and B, are as defined above, C is either C or Ε or both C and Ε, x > 40 wt%, y < 30 wt%, and z < 30 wt%. The molecular weight (weight average) of polymer (I) or (T) is between about 1,000 and 2,000,000, preferably between about 5,000 and 500,000, and most preferably between about 10,000 and 70,000. Preferably, the final T g of the polymer(s) (I) or (F) is within the range of about -25° to +110°C, and more preferably, the final T g is within the range of about +25° to +75°C. The molecular weight (weight average) of polymer (I) is between about 1 ,000 to 2,000,000, preferably between about 5,000 and 500,000, and most preferably between about 10,000 and 70,000. SUBSTITUTE SHEET (RULE 25) The polymer (I) or (F) is designed to have both hydrophobic and hydrophilic moieties. Thus, the polymer is both (1) water-dispersible, and includes water-soluble polar groups, which are present in sufficient quantity to suspend a pigment particle, and (2) hydrophobic, with a substantial fraction of the polymer containing hydrophobic moieties that are either highly water-resistant or even water-insoluble. The hydrophobic A moiety allows the polymer to have a sufficiently low T g to permit formation of a film with other polymer molecules containing the A moiety. The film formation results upon drying (removal of water). The hydrophobic B moiety in combination with the hydrophobic A moiety provides the polymer with resistance to environmental solvents, such as water and those found in highlighter pens. Additional environmental solvents can be found in rain, coffee, soda pop, body oils, soils, hot water, etc. The hydrophilic C moiety may be provided in the polymer itself, as shown in formula (I). At least one C moiety may be present, and is water- soluble. If present, such water-soluble moieties comprise an ionic or non-ionic shell of the core-shell polymer. Alternatively, the C moiety may be provided by one or more surfactants, to form a polymer/surfactant system. Any of the ionic (anionic and cationic), non-ionic, and zwitterionic (amphoteric) surfactants may be employed. A representative listing of applicable surfactant can be found in McCutcheon's Emulsifiers and Detergents, North American Edition, 1997, McCutcheon's Division, MC Publishing Co. 175 Rock road, Glen Rock, NJ 07452 USA Examples of surfactants that may be beneficially employed in the practice of the present invention include: TERGITOLs, which are polyethylene or polypropylene oxide ethers; alkyl phenyl polyethylene oxides available under the tradenane TRITONs, ; BRIJs, which are polyethylene or polypropylene oxide ethers; PLURONICs, which are also polyethylene/o polypropylene oxide copolymers from BASF; and the SURFYNOLs, which are acetylenic ethoxylated diols; polyethylene oxide (POE) esters; POE diesters; POE amines; protonated POE amines; POE amides; the polypropylene analogs of the foregoing POE compounds; dimethicone copolyols; quaternary ammonium compounds; AEROSOLS, including sulfosuccinates; ethoxylates, amine oxides, and betaines. Preferred examples of non-ionic surfactants include, but are not limited to, BRIJs, which are polyethylene oxide ethers, available from ICI Surfactants (specific examples include the following BRIJs: 30, 35, 52, 56, 58, 72, 76, 78, 92, 97, and 98); TWEENs, which are derivatives of polyethylene oxides, avail- able from ICI Surfactants (specific examples include the following TWEENs: 20, 40, 60, 80, and 85); SOLSPERSE 27,000, which is an aromatic ethoxylate, available from Zeneca; SPAN 85, which is available from Air Products; and SURFYNOLs, which are acetylenic ethylene oxides available from Air Products. Examples of anionic surfactants include AEROSOL DPOS 45, which is a sul- fate, available from Cytec Industries; sodium octadecyl sulfonate; dioctyl ester of sodium sulfosuccinic acid; AEROSOL OT 100%, which is a sulfate, available from American Cyanamid; and sodium lauryl sulfonate. If used, the amount of surfactant ranges from about 0.001 to 30 wt%, and the balance the polymer. Optionally, one or more UV absorber moieties D may be present. The UV absorber contains a UV blocking chromophore, which imparts lightfastness to the polymer. Also optionally, one or more ionic water-soluble, dispersible moieties E may be present. If present, such water-soluble moieties comprise an ionic shell of the core-shell polymer. Although the C and E moieties are indicated as being optional, at least one of these two moieties must be present in the polymer. One moiety (monomer) may be employed to provide one or more of the foregoing functions. Alternatively, one function may be provided by one or more of the foregoing moieties. However, in many instances, a single moiety provides a single function. Typically, the polymer(s) of the present invention is prepared by emulsifying the monomeric components, and then conducting a free-radical polymerization in water. Free-radical polymerization involves employing a free-radical initiator. A concentration of about 0.001 to 10 wt% of the initiator is employed in the total monomer system. Examples of suitable free-radical initiators include, but are not limited to, ammonium persulfate, potassium persulfate, hydrogen peroxide, benzoyl peroxide, azobisisobutyronitrile, TRIGONOX 21, and PER- KADOX 16. Preferably, the resulting polymer (I) is a random polymer. Two or more moieties (monomers) may be copolymerized. Alternatively, two or more polymers may be blended together. One skilled in this art would understand that the polymer(s) can also be prepared by conventional condensation techniques. Once a film is formed from the polymer and water is removed, as by dehydration under ambient conditions, the film is essentially impervious to water, and the polymer is not capable of being redispersed with water. If the polymer or polymer/surfactant system is as- sociated with pigment particles, and the pigment with polymer or polymer/surfactant system is deposited on a surface, such as paper, then the pigment particles are trapped within or beneath the film on the surface, and are thus protected from the effects of water and environmental solvents. The sole Figure illustrates a molecule of polymer (I). Moieties A and B form a solid core. The C moiety forms a non-ionic, water-soluble shell. The D moiety is a UV absorber. The E moiety forms an ionic, water-soluble or water- insoluble shell. As stated above, the A moiety is a hydrophobic component for controlling solubility in organic solvents selected from monomer(s) that form homo- polyers having a T g in the range between -150° and +25°C. The A moiety is preferably selected from ethyl enically-substituted compounds given by (A): C(R,)(R 2 )=C(R 3 )R 4 R 5 R 6 (A) where R, and R 2 are independently hydrogen, halogen, alkyl, aryl, or substituted alkyl or aryl, or vinyl butyral, R 3 is hydrogen, halogen, saturated or unsaturated alkyl, alkoxy, aryl, or substituted alkyl, alkoxy, or aryl, R 4 is direct bond, O, CO, NH, halogen, saturated or unsaturated alkyl, aryl, or substituted alkyl, aryl, or CN, R 5 is absent (if R 4 is alkyl, aryl, or substituted alkyl or aryl), direct bond, hydrogen, NH, O, alkyl, alkylene, aryl, or substituted alkyl, alkylene, or aryl, and Rg is absent (if R 4 is alkyl, aryl, or substituted alkyl or aryl or if R 5 is hydrogen, alkyl, aryl, or substituted alkyl or aryl), NH,, saturated or unsaturated alkyl, alkoxy, aryl, aroxy, or substituted alkyl, or aryl.

ink-jet printing technology may be used in the practice of the present invention. While dyes, whether water- insoluble or water-soluble, may be employed, the core/shell binder is preferably employed with pigments. Without being limited to theory, it is believed that the primer is associ- ated with the colorant in solution and the primer and durable core/shell polymers are encapsulating the colorants upon drying; this appears to be the case after printing the ink on a print medium, such as paper. However, the present invention is meant to include ink formulations which comprise the polymers and colorants without limit to the type of association between the colorant and the polymer.

The polymeric acids employed in the practice of the invention can be prepared by an interfacial polymerization process or simply by a bulk polymerization process. Thus, these polymeric acids can be in a water-dispersive form or can be a homogeneous solution of suitable solvents. Many polymeric acids are commercially available. For example, polyac- rylic acid derivatives, made by bulk polymerization, are available from BYK Chemie Co., under the trade designations Disperbyk 110, 111, 180, 181, 182, 183, 184, and 190 and BYK 380 and 381. Additional polymeric acids are available from Zeneca Co. under the trade designations Neocryl BT175, BT520, TX- k 14, A6037, XK12, K990, and BT44. Water-soluble and water-dispersive polyesters are given by the general formulae R [-(-CH 2 -C-)-] n I COO(C,H 4 O) m CH 3 or R I -[-CH,CHCOO-] n - where m = 1-300; n = 10 to 10,000; R = H or alkyl. Examples of water-soluble and/or water-dispersive polyesters include ethylene glycol diacetate, butylene glycol diacetate, dimethyl succinate, diethyl succinate, poly(vinyl acetate), polyethylene glycol acrylate, polyethylene glycol methacryl- SUBSTTTUTE SHEET (RULE 25) ate, polpropylene glycol acrylate, polypropylene glycol methacrylate, and poly- phenylene glycol methacrylate. The above-described additives serve to stabilize the aqueous emulsion of the colorant/core-shell binder system, and minimizes decel and kogation in the ink. The foregoing additives may be employed in other ink systems in which water- insoluble colorants, such as pigments and water-insoluble dyes, are employed. In such other ink systems, the additives serve to stabilize the colorants or polymeric particles in the ink formulation, or core/shell binders, in addition to minimizing decel and kogation in the ink. The concentration of the additive is within the range of about 0.005 to 50 wt% of the ink composition. In the ink compositions of the present invention, the ratio of colorant (pigment) to binder (I) is between 10:1 and 1:10, preferably between 5:1 and 1:5, and most preferably between 3:1 and 1:3. The general ink formulation comprises: 5 to 50 wt% water-miscible solvent; 0.5 to 10 wt% colorant; 0.1 to 10 wt% at least one core/shell polymeric binder; 0.005 to 50 wt% additive; and water. The inks of the present invention comprise about 5 to 50 wt%, preferably about 10 to 25 wt%, water-miscible organic co-solvent, about 0.05 to 10 wt%, preferably about 0.5 to 10 wt%, colorant, about 0.0005 to 50 wt%, preferably about 0.1 to 10 wt%, more preferably about 0.5 to 5 wt%, durable core/shell polymer, about 0.0005 to 50 wt%, preferably about 0.1 to 10 wt%, more preferably about 0.5 to 5 wt%, primer core/shell polymer, about 0.005 to 50 wt% additive, and water. The co-solvents comprise one or more organic, water-miscible solvents commonly employed in ink-jet printing. Classes of co-solvents employed in the practice of this invention include, but are not limited to, aliphatic alcohols, aro- matic alcohols, diols, glycol ethers, poly(glycol) ethers, caprolactams, formamides, acetamides, and long chain alcohols. Examples of compounds employed in the practice of this invention include, but are not limited to, primary aliphatic alcohols of 30 carbons or less, primary aromatic alcohols of 30 carbons or less, secondary aliphatic alcohols of 30 carbons or less, secondary aromatic alcohols of 30 carbons or less, 1,2-alcohols of 30 carbons or less, 1,3-alcohols of 30 carbons or less, 1, co-alcohols of 30 carbons or less, ethylene glycol alkyl ethers, propylene glycol alkyl ethers, poly(ethylene glycol) alkyl ethers, higher homologs of poly(ethylene glycol) alkyl ethers, poly(propylene glycol) alkyl ethers, higher homologs of poly (propylene glycol) alkyl ethers, N-alkyl capro- lactams, unsubstituted caprolactams, substituted formamides, unsubstituted formamides, substituted acetamides, and unsubstituted acetamides. Specific ex- amples of co-solvents that are preferably employed in the practice of this invention include, but are not limited to, N-methyl pyrrolidone, 1,5-pentanediol, 2- pyrrolidone, diethylene glycol, l,3-(2-methyl)-propanediol, l,3,5-(2-methyl)- pentanetriol, tetramethylene sulfone, 3-methoxy-3-methylbutanol, glycerol, 1,2- alkyldiols, propylene glycol, glycerol, hexanediol, and heptanediol. The balance of the ink is water, together with other additives commonly added to ink-jet inks, which are employed to optimize the properties of the ink for specific applications. For example, as is well-known to those skilled in the art, biocides may be used in the ink composition to inhibit growth of microorganisms, sequestering agents such as EDTA may be included to eliminate deleteri- ous effects of heavy metal impurities, and buffer solutions may be used to control the pH of the ink. Other known additives such as viscosity modifiers and other acrylic or non-acrylic polymers may be added to improve various properties of the ink compositions as desired. The additives of the present invention may also be used with dual core/shell polymers, such as those disclosed in co-pending applications Serial No. 08/998,164, filed December 24, 1997 and Serial No. 09/ , filed [PD-10981049-1]. The additives of the present invention further increase the print- ability of the ink, resulting in an increase in smear-fastness and water- fastness, ap- p.arently due to the protection of the color.ant provided by the polymer (primer and/or durable). Further, these additives reduce the dry time of the ink and provide a higher print density and reduced decel and kogation. SUBSTITUTE SHEET (RULE 25) It should be noted that the use of the additives disclosed herein without the polymer (I) or (F) do not provide inks with good ink permanence, including waterfastness and smear-fastness. That is, it is the combination of the additives of the present invention and the core/shell polymers that provides the ink with good ink permanence. The ink-jet ink printing compositions of the present invention evidence superior smearfastness, as compared to prior art ink-jet ink compositions. EXAMPLES In the following examples, most of the monomers used were commer- cially available. The purity of such monomers is that found in normal commercial practice. Only the poly(ethylene glycol) methyl ether acrylate monomers of different molecular weights were prepared from the corresponding alcohol with acryloyl chloride in the presence of triethylamine by standard esterification process. Other monomers can be prepared by following conventional and well-known procedures of typical organic reactions. Example 1. (Hexyl Acrylate) 10 (Methyl Methacrylate) 30 (Vinylpyrrolidone) 59 (Dl),. Synthesis of core-shell polymer with hexyl acrylate (A), methyl methacrylate (MMA) (B), vinylpyrrolidone (C), and UV stabilizer (Dl) (D) in the ratio of 10, 30, 59, and 1% by weight, respectively: Hexyl acrylate (8 g), MMA (24 g), vinylpyrrolidone (47.2 g) and UV stabilizer D 1(0.8 g) were mixed with BRIJ 92 (0.8 g), SOLSPERSE 27,000 (0.82 g), and isooctylmercaptopropionate (0.8 g) in water (12 g) to form an emulsion. The emulsion was saturated with nitrogen. Then the emulsion was added over a period of 1 hour to a solution of potassium persulfate (1.71 g) in water (703.09 g) at 80°C. The reaction mixture was maintained at 80°C for 2.5 hour. The reaction mixture was then cooled to obtain the title polymer dispersed in water. The average particle size of the polymer solution was found to be 250 nm and the glass transition temperature (T g ) of the polymer obtained was 65°C. Example 2. (Hexyl Acrylate) 30 (Methyl Methacrylate) 40 (Acrylamide) 30 . Synthesis of core-shell polymer derived from hexyl acrylate (A), MMA (B), and acrylamide (E) in the ratio of 30, 40, and 30% by weight, respectively: The monomers, hexyl acrylate (3 g), MMA (4 g), and acrylamide (3 g) were mixed in water (7 g) containing BRIJ 92 (0.22 g), Aerosol DPOS 45 (0.22 g), and isooctylmercaptopropionate (0.22 g) to form an emulsion. The emulsion was saturated with nitrogen and added dropwise to a solution of potassium persulfate (0.2 g) in water (82.14 g) at 100°C. Heating was continued for a period of 4 hours and cooled to obtain the title core-shell polymer. The average particle size of the polymer solution was found to be 200 nm and the glass transition temperature (T g ) of the polymer obtained was -10° and +125°C. Examples 4-6. In the above Examples 1 to 3, the water-soluble components, such as vinylpyrrolidone (C), were replaced by poly(ethylene glycol) methyl ether acrylate (C) of molecular weight 404 (PEG-Ac(404)) in the corresponding amount to obtain core-shell polymer containing PEG-Ac(404). The resulting polymers and their average particle sizes and glass transition temperatures are given in Table II below. TABLE II. Results of Examples 4-6. Example 7. (Butyl Acrylate) 20 (Methyl Methacrylate) 80 / Surfactant (2 wt%). Synthesis of polymer derived from butyl acrylate (A) and MMA (B) in the ratio of 20 and 80% by weight, respectively: Butyl acrylate (4 g) and methyl methacrylate (16 g) were mixed with BRIJ 92 (0.2 g), SOLSPERSE 27,000 (0.2 g), and isooctylmercaptopropionate (0.2 g). An emulsion was prepared by adding water (2.0 g) to the above mono- mer mixture. The emulsion was saturated with nitrogen and added dropwise to a solution of potassium persulfate (0.4 g) in water (177 g) at 75°C. The reaction mixture was maintained at the same temperature for another 2 hr to obtain the title polymer/surfactant system dispersed in water. The average particle size of the polymer solution was found to be 165 nm and the glass transition temperature (T g ) of the polymer obtained was 63°C. Examples 8-11: Comparison Examples 1-2. Testing of the physical properties of several durable, film-forming, water- dispersive polymers was performed and compared to prior art polymers. The tests involved a film- forming test, a water-dispersive stability test, and a measurement of the glass transition temperature, T g . (1) Film Forming Test. The core/shell polymer of the invention was cast on a glass substrate and allowed to dry at ambient conditions for several hours. As the film-forming process occured, the milky color of the polymer solution gradually turned into a transparent film. The formed film (on glass substrate) was soaked in water mixed with different solvents liquid additives (40% versus water) for 24 hrs and the weight loss was measured. The samples with the least weight loss samples are indicative of the most durable film. (2) Water-Dispersive Stability Test. The polymer emulsion was subjected to a centrifugation set at 4,000 rpm for 30 minutes. This is repeated twice. The amount of accumulation after centrifugation is an indication of the dispersion stability, with a higher amount of accumulation indicating less dispersion stability. (3) Measurement of T g . The glass transition temperature was measured by Differential Scanning Calorimetry, using a DSC available from duPont de Nemours Company as Model 2.0. The data accumulated from the foregoing tests -are illustrated in the following Table III: TABLE III. Results of Tests. Example 12: Comparison Examples 3-4. Commercially available Cabot pigment plus polymer plus penetrating humectant plus+ non-penetrating humectant: Example 12. In an 250 cm 3 glass jar were added 5.0 g of carbon black (Vulcan XR- 72), 25.0 g of a polymer of the invention comprising (HA) 30 (MMA) 40 (PEGAc(404)) 30 (10 wt% solid), 10 g diethylene glycol (as non- penetrating humectant), 10 g N-methyl pyrrolidone (NMP, as penetrating humectant), 0.02 g of fluoro surfactant (Fluorad 99; 3M Products). The components were milled together by a paint shaker using 2 mm zirconium beads for 2 hrs. After being milled, the system was diluted with water to achieve a final ink solution of 5 wt% solid. The Zr beads were removed by 200 mesh filtering. The ink solution was centrifuged to eliminate agglomerated solids and the like and refiltered again through a 5 μm glass filter. This solution was then ready for print testing. In order to perform the print test, the ink was filled into the black ink cartridge of a Hewlett-Packard Company DeskJet printer prototype product and printed with a frequency of 20 Kz. The optical density (OD) of the print was measured by Mac Beth densi- tometer. The decap characteristic of the pen was characterized as the number of the streak lines appearing at the right hand side of a black solid band. As the pen prints right-to-left in the printer, this is an indication of the startup performance of the pen - how long it takes the dried nozzles to come back to full nozzle health. The stability of the ink was judged by measuring the changing of the particle size after the temperature cycle (T-cycle) between 70°C and -70°C. The particle size measurement is carried out by a Nikon particle sizer. The kogation effect is a phenomenon in which the pen cannot perform due to the deterioration of the firing resistor in the ink chamber due to a buildup of residue. So the kogation, generally, terminates the life of the pen. The kogation was measured by number of prints exhibiting unchanged print quality (PQ) diring continuous printing process of 100 pages. The higher the number, the lower the kogation effect. The smearfastness was measured by the background optical density (in mOD) when a neighbor image area is wiped twice with a highlighter pen. The waterfastness was measured by the background optical density (in mOD) when a water drip runs across an image area. Comparison Example 3. Example 12 was repeated, except the polymer was replaced by poly(ethylene glycol) having molecular weight in the range of 5,000. Comparison Example 4. Example 12 was repeated, except the polymer was replaced by 98% hydrolyzed polyvinyl alcohol, average molecular weight = 4,000. The print tests results for Examples 12 and Comparison Examples 3 and 4 are summarized in Table IV. SUBSTITUTE SHEET (RULE 25) TABLE IV. Results of Example 12 and Comparison Examples 3-4. Example 13. Example 12 was repeated, except that 1.28 g of dimethylaminopronanol (DMAMP) was added into the ink. It resulted in an increased OD of 1.55 and a decreased decel of 0 line/cm; the number of prints before kogation was 130. Actually, after this, the ink in the cartridge was totally consumed. Thus, the addition of DMAMP tends to improve the printability over the ink which does not contain DMAMP. Example 14. Comparative Example 3 was repeated with 1.28g of DMAMP additive, which gave rise to an increased OD up to 1.52 over the OD of 1.4 of the ink without the additive. Examples 15-17. Example 13 was repeated, except that dimethylaminopronanol (DMAMP) was replaced respectively by 2-(2-amininoethoxy) eth.anol (AEE, Aldrich Chemical), and 2-amino-l-butanol (Aldrich Chemical), Zoldine ZT-55 (Angus Chemical).

The components were milled together by a paint shaker using 2 mm zirco- nium beads for 2 hrs. After being milled and the system was diluted with water to achieve a final ink solution of 5 wt%. The Zr beads were removed by 200 mesh filtering. The ink solution was centrifuged to eliminate agglomeration solids and the like and refiltered again through a 5 μm glass filter. This solution was then ready for print test. In order to perform the print test, the ink was loaded into the color cartridge of a Hewlett-Packard Company Deskjet printer prototype product and printed with a frequency of 20 KHz.

The foregoing results show the superiority of an ink containing the additive of the invention as compared to inks that do not contain the additive of the invention. Specifically, kogation is reduced and smear-fastness and waterfastness are considerably improved, as are optical density and decel. Thus, there has been disclosed ink-jet ink printing compositions having superior smearfastness. It will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes and modifications of an obvious nature may be made, and all such changes and modifications are considered to fall within the scope of the invention.
