20110002718 | FIXING SOLUTION, FIXING METHOD, FIXING DEVICE, IMAGE FORMING METHOD AND IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS - To provide a fixing solution for fixing fine resin particles to a recording medium, the fixing solution including: a diluent which contains water; a foaming agent which allows the fixing solution to be in the form of foam; and a solid plasticizer which is solid at normal temperature and soluble in the diluent, and which softens or swells at least part of the fine resin particles while dissolved in the diluent. | 01-06-2011 |
20110217098 | Fixing device and image forming apparatus - A disclosed fixing device includes a fixer application unit configured to apply a fixer containing a softener, capable of softening resin by dissolving or swelling at least a part of the resin, and water to resin particles formed on a recording medium such that the resin particles are fixed on the recording medium, and an anti-tack agent application unit configured to apply a liquid anti-tack agent immiscible with the softener to surfaces of the resin particles that are mixed with the softener by the application of the fixer containing the softener. | 09-08-2011 |
20110229231 | FIXATION FLUID, FIXATION METHOD, IMAGE FORMING METHOD, FIXATION DEVICE, AND IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS - Disclosed is a fixation fluid, including a softening agent(s), the softening agent(s) being a saturated aliphatic carboxylic acid ester(s) of a saturated aliphatic alcohol(s) and/or a carbonic acid ester(s) of a dihydric saturated aliphatic alcohol(s), a foaming agent(s), the foaming agent(s) being a non-ionic surfactant(s) and/or an amphoteric surfactant(s), water, a pH adjustor(s), the pH adjustor(s) being an acid(s) and/or a salt(s) of the acid(s), and a pH of the fixation fluid being 6 or more and 7 or less. | 09-22-2011 |
20110268480 | FIXATION DEVICE, IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS, AND FIXATION FLUID STORAGE CONTAINER - Disclosed is, for example, a fixation device of fixing a resin-containing fine particle, the fixation device being configured to foam a fixation fluid including at least a softening agent configured to dissolve or swell at least one portion of a resin to soften the resin-containing fine particle including a resin, a foaming agent, and water, and to provide a foamed fixation fluid to the resin-containing fine particle, the fixation device including a first storage part configured to contain a softening agent fluid including at least the softening agent, a second storage part configured to contain a foaming agent fluid including at least the foaming agent, and a mixed foamed fixation fluid producing part configured to mix and foam both fluids contained in independent states in the storage parts to produce the foamed fixation fluid. | 11-03-2011 |
20120135342 | FIXING SOLUTION, FIXING METHOD, FIXING DEVICE, IMAGE FORMING METHOD AND IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS - To provide a fixing solution for fixing fine resin particles to a recording medium, the fixing solution including: a diluent which contains water; a foaming agent which allows the fixing solution to be in the form of foam; and plasticizers which soften or swell at least part of the fine resin particles, wherein the plasticizers contain a liquid plasticizer which is liquid at normal temperature and soluble in the diluent, and a solid plasticizer which is solid at normal temperature and soluble in the diluent. | 05-31-2012 |
20140071196 | IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS AND IMAGE FORMING METHOD - Disclosed is an image forming apparatus including a head configured to discharge an aqueous recording liquid onto a recording medium; and a coating unit configured to apply a process liquid onto the recording medium, wherein the process liquid is formed by emulsifying, by a first surfactant, water including a water-soluble polymer and a low polarity solvent which is not compatible with the water, wherein the water and the low polarity solvent are emulsified as a W/O emulsion in which the water is in a dispersed phase and the low polarity solvent is in a continuous phase. | 03-13-2014 |
20150249263 | SOLID ELECTROLYTE AND SECONDARY BATTERY - Provided is a sulfide-based solid electrolyte, including: a Na element; a Ge element; a P element; and a S element, wherein an atomic percentage (at. %) of each of the Na element, the Ge element, the P element, and the S element is as follows when a total of the respective elements is 100 at. %,
