The invention relates to novel compounds, the use of such compounds and/or mixtures thereof as dyestuffs for printing recording materials, especially paper or papery substrates, textile fibre materials, plastic films and plastic transparencies by the inkjet printing process and also to the recording materials printed thereby.
Inkjet printing processes are becoming more and more important for industrial applications.
Inkjet printing processes are known. In what follows, the principle of inkjet printing will only be discussed very briefly. Details of this technology are described for example in the Ink-Jet-Printing section of R. W. Kenyon in “Chemistry and Technology of Printing and Imaging Systems”, Peter Gregory (editor), Blackie Academic & Professional, Chapmann & Hall 1996, pages 113-138, and references cited therein.
In the inkjet printing process, individual droplets of the ink are sprayed from a nozzle onto a substrate in a controlled manner. The continuous inkjet method and the drop-on-demand method are employed predominantly for this purpose. In the case of the continuous inkjet method, the droplets are produced continuously and droplets not needed for printing are diverted into a collecting vessel and recycled. In the case of the discontinuous drop-on-demand method, by contrast, droplets are generated and printed as desired, i.e. droplets are only generated when this is necessary for printing. The droplets may be generated for example by means of a piezo inkjet head or by means of thermal energy (bubble jet).
By additionally disposing at least one nozzle with yellow, magenta or cyan ink side by side it is possible to obtain colour reproductions in high quality. This process is known as polychromatic printing or, when three colour components are used, as trichromatic printing.
The composition of the invention can be used with all known and suitable inkjet printers for printing paper or papery substrates, textile fibre materials, plastic films and plastic transparencies. This applies not only to the use in monochromatic printing but also to polychromatic printing, especially trichromatic printing.
The composition of the ink for the inkjet printing process has to possess a suitable conductivity, sterility in storage, viscosity and surface tension to meet the specific requirements of inkjet ink. In addition, the prints on the recording materials have to have good properties and fastness.
Useful recording materials, as mentioned above, are preferably paper and papery substrates, textile fibre materials, plastic films and plastic transparencies. But glass and metal may be used as well.
Useful papers or papery substrates include all known such materials. Preference is given to papers or papery substrates coated on at least one side with a material which is particularly receptive to ink compositions. Such papers or papery materials are described inter alia in DE 3018342, DE 4446551, EP 164196 and EP 875393.
Useful textile fibre materials are in particular hydroxyl-containing fibre materials. Preference is given to cellulosic fibre materials, which consist of or comprise cellulose. Examples are natural fibre materials such as cotton, linen or hemp and regenerated fibre materials such as, for example, viscose and also lyocell.
Useful plastic films or plastic transparencies include all known such materials. Preference is given to plastic films or plastic transparencies coated on at least one side with a material which is particularly receptive to the ink compositions. Such plastic films or plastic transparencies are described inter alia in EP 755332, U.S. Pat. No. 4,935,307, U.S. Pat. No. 4,956,230, U.S. Pat. No. 5,134,198 and U.S. Pat. No. 5,219,928.

The anhydrous organic solvent can consist of a single solvent or a mixture of 2 or more different solvents.
When it is a mixture of different solvents, a mixture including 2 to 5 different anhydrous solvents is preferred. This makes it possible to provide a medium as per 2) which permits good control of the drying properties and of the stability of the ink composition in storage.
Ink compositions including an anhydrous organic solvent or mixtures thereof are of particular interest when rapid drying times are required and especially when they are used for prints on hydrophobic and non-absorbing substrates, such as plastic, metal and glass.

These auxiliaries are preferably added in an amount of 0-5% by weight.

They are used in particular in amounts of 0.1 to 3% by weight, preferably 0.1 to 1% by weight, based on the total weight of the ink, to set a pH of for example 5 to 9, especially 6 to 8. A citrate buffer is preferred in the case of alginatic inks.
The inks may further include customary additives, for example foam suppressants or especially fungal and/or bacterial growth inhibitors. These are customarily used in amounts of 0.01 to 1% by weight, based on the total weight of the ink.
The printing inks and also the dye mixtures comprise at least the compound of formula (I).
The prints obtainable by the process of the invention have good general fastnesses, a good lightfastness and also sharp contours and a high colour strength. The inks provide prints of high optical density. Especially good brilliance together with a good light fastness is achieved with the dyes according to the invention.
The printing inks used are notable for good stability and good viscosity properties. The recording fluids of the invention have viscosity and surface tension values which are within the ranges suitable for the ink-jet processes. The viscosity remains virtually unchanged even in the event of high shearing forces occurring during printing.
Recording fluids according to the invention in storage are not prone to the formation of precipitates that leads to fuzzy prints or nozzle cloggage.
A further aspect of the present invention is the use of the printing ink in trichromatic printing. Trichromatic printing is a very large application for all recording materials. This form of printing is normally carried out with a yellow, red and blue ink composition. Furthermore, the magenta dye mixtures of the invention may be used as an ink set in combination with black, yellow and/or cyan recording fluids.
This invention further provides recording materials, which have been printed with a composition according to the invention.
Moreover, the dye mixtures of the invention are useful as colorants in the electrophotographic toners and developers, for example one- and two-component powder toners, magnetic toners, liquid toners, polymerization toners and other specialty toners.
Typical toner binders are addition polymerization, polyaddition and polycondensation resins, such as styrene, styrene-acrylate, styrene-butadiene, acrylate, polyester, phenolic and epoxy resins, polysulfones, polyurethanes, individually or in combination, and also polyethylene and polypropylene, in or to which further ingredients, such as charge control agents, waxes or flow agents, may be present or added subsequently. Dye mixtures according to the invention are further useful as colorants in powders and powder coating materials, especially triboelectrically or electrostatically sprayed powder coating materials, which are used to coat the surfaces of articles made for example of metal, wood, plastic, glass, ceramic, concrete, textile material, paper or rubber. Powder coating resins employed are typically epoxy resins, carboxyl- and hydroxyl-containing polyester resins, polyurethane resins and acrylic resins together with customary curing agents. Combinations of resins are also used. For instance, epoxy resins are frequently used in combination with carboxyl- and hydroxyl-containing polyester resins.
The dye mixtures of the invention are also useful as colorants for color filters, for additive as well as subtractive color generation (P. Gregory “Topics in Applied Chemistry: High Technology Applications of Organic Colorants” Plenum Press, New York 1991, page 15-25), and also as colorants in electronic inks for electronic newspapers.
