Appeal No. 2002-0178
Application 09/385,909
polyvinyl alcohol, polyacrylic acid, methyl cellulose,
polyoxyethylene octylphenyl ether, or polyoxyethylene nonylphenyl
ether; wherein the anionic surfactant is selected in an amount of
from about 0.1 to about 10 weight percent based on the total
weight percent amount of monomers, anionic surfactant, and
nonionic surfactant; wherein the nonionic surfactant is selected
in an amount of from about 0.1 to about 6 weight percent based on
the total weight percent amount of monomers, anionic surfactant,
and nonionic surfactant.
20. A process in accordance with claim 1 wherein the
anionic surfactant is sodium dodecyl sulfate, sodium
dodecylbenzene sulfonate, sodium dodecyl naphthalene sulfate,
sodium dodecyl diphenyloxide disulfonate, or sodium N-decyl
diphenyloxide disulfonate.
21. A process in accordance with claim 1 wherein the
nonionic surfactant is selected in an amount of from about 0.1 to
about 6 weight percent based on the total weight percent amount
of monomer, anionic surfactant, and nonionic surfactant.
22. A process in accordance with claim 1 wherein the ink
vehicle is present in an amount of from about 50 to about 99
percent by weight, the colorant is present in an amount of from
about 1 to about 20 percent by weight, and the ionic sulfonate
latex polymer generated after polymerization is present in an
amount of from about 0.05 to about 20 percent by weight, and
which ink further includes a biocide present in an amount of from
about 0.1 to about 10 percent by weight, a humectant present in
an amount of from about 0.1 to about 50 percent by weight, a
polymeric additive present in an amount of from about 0.1 to
about 10 percent by weight, and a stabilizer additive present in
an amount of from about 0.1 to about 5 percent by weight, based
on the total amount of components in the ink and which total is
about 100 percent.
23. A process in accordance with claim 1 wherein the
colorant is a dye.
24. A process in accordance with claim 1 wherein the
colorant is a pigment.
