Abstract:
A method for creating controlled scattering effects including (a) disposing at least one curable ink layer onto a substrate in an imagewise fashion or in a continuous film fashion; (b) applying a first cure to partially cure the ink layer (a); (c) disposing at least one scattering material onto the ink layer (a); and (d) applying a second cure to fully cure the ink layer (a); wherein the first cure and the second cure are applied in a manner to control the disposition of the scattering material on top of and penetration into the curable ink layer to control surface and subsurface scattering properties.

Claim (Index 13):
The method of  claim 1 , wherein the scattering material is a material having at least one characteristic selected from the group consisting of a high aspect ratio, a large particle size; and an unjettable material;\n wherein a high aspect ratio comprises a ratio of from about 3 to about 1; wherein a large particulate material comprises a particle having a volume average particle diameter of from about 5 to about 20 micrometers; and wherein an unjettable material is a material that is incapable of being jetted from an ink jet print head nozzle.
