Abstract:
Herein is disclosed a liquid electrostatic ink composition. The composition may comprise a liquid carrier having dispersed therein: chargeable particles comprising a thermoplastic resin having acidic side groups; and globular particles comprising a hydrocarbon having a drop point, measured according to ASTM D3954-15, of at least 120° C., the globular particles having a D50 of from 2 μm to 7 μm and a D90 of 10 μm or less, the D50 and D90 being measured in the liquid carrier using laser diffraction and volume distribution, in accordance with ISO13220.

Claim (Index 10):
A method of forming an electrostatic ink composition comprising:\n grinding a thermoplastic resin having acidic side groups in a liquid carrier to provide a slurry comprising particles comprising the thermoplastic resin dispersed in the liquid carrier; adding globular particles to the slurry, the globular particles comprising a hydrocarbon having a drop point, measured according to ASTM D3954-15, of at least 120\u00b0 C., and the globular particles having a D50 of from 2 \u03bcm to 7 \u03bcm and a D90 of 10 \u03bcm or less, the D50 and D90, when measured in the liquid carrier using laser diffraction and volume distribution, in accordance with ISO13220.
