LYOPHILIC PATTERN FORMING METHOD, BASE MATERIAL OBTAINED BY THE METHOD, INTERMEDIATE TRANSFER BODY AND COATING ROLLER USING THE BASE MATERIAL, METHOD OF MANUFACTURING RECORDING MATERIAL AND IMAGE RECORDING DEVICE USING THE INTERMEDIATE TRANSFER BODY

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To highly accurately and easily form a pattern having a lyophilic portion and a liquid repellent portion for appropriately forming a reaction liquid reacting to ink on an intermediate transfer body, in image recording of an intermediate transfer system adopting inkjet recording.;SOLUTION: A liquid containing a surfactant is adhered in a state of a liquid droplet on a liquid-repellent treating object surface, a liquid droplet outside portion is made lyophilic, and after the liquid droplet diameter is increased thereby, a liquid droplet center portion on the liquid-repellent surface is removed by washing. A lyophilic pattern having a ring-like lyophilic portion is formed on a base material surface. The size of the ring such as an inner diameter, and a ring width (eventually, an outer diameter) are easily controlled by adjusting the amount of adhered liquid droplet, the imparted density, the kind and concentration of the surfactant, and conditions during plasma treatment.;COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT
