“…Bimodal distribution is probably due to agglomeration phenomena. The new surface area created by comminution increases linearly with milling time, but different trends in the increase in specific surface area were seen as a function of median particle size, indicative of complex changes in particle size and shape as confirmed by the pigments' microstructure, that were illustrated in the first two parts of this study [7][8]. The particle size data for the three pigments achieved under different experimental conditions are reported in Table 1.…”

“…Ceramic pigments are currently micronized down to a mean particle diameter around 0.3 µm in order to prevent clogging of print heads [7][8]. However, micronization causes a strong increase in the specific surface area of pigments, with the drawback of a high tendency of particles to agglomerate.…”

“…Despite the high surface tension, aqueous-based inks have gained attention as they are more environmentally friendly and have the option of using co-solvents such as alcohols to match the inkjet printer requirements [27][28][29]. Güngör et al studied the effect of micronisation on three ceramic pigments, spinel, rutile, and zircon by mechanical milling for inkjet printing on ceramic tiles in terms of rheological and physical properties [31]. The major challenge with colloidal suspensions is their particle size distribution and stability of the suspended particles.…”

“…In the field of textile printing, in the last few decades, increasing attention has been devoted to inkjet printing systems [1,2]. Aside from the small manufacturing scale and customized production, inkjet printing technology is attractive because of its low pollution, quick response, rational ink management, and so on [3,4,5,6]. As for the inks, pigment-based inks have been widely used due to their good washing and light fastness [7].…”

In this work, the effect of confined space on crystallization processes of pigments was investigated by using C.I. Pigment Red 146 (PR 146) as a model compound. The colloidal system (i.e., emulsion droplets) was used as a nanoreactor to prepare nanoscale PR 146 for the inkjet printer. The effects of the space confinement were investigated by comparing the products of PR 146 prepared from bulk solution, macroemulsion, and miniemulsion. The results showed that PR 146 crystallized in mini-emulsion had the narrowest particle size distribution and the average particle size can be as small as 172.5 nm, one order of magnitude smaller than the one obtained from the bulk solution. X-ray diffraction (XRD) data revealed that PR 146 crystallized in all three solutions where the crystalline state and had similar crystallite sizes. The process mechanism of crystallization confined in the miniemulsion droplets was proposed and explained. The function mechanism of the co-stabilizer during the crystallization of PR 146 in emulsion was also explained. It was found that sodium chloride could counteract the pressure difference as an osmotic pressure agent and prevent the migrating of water from small droplets into big droplets. The influences of dosages of emulsifiers and co-stabilizers on droplet size and the size of the obtained PR 146 particles were evaluated and the optimal conditions were determined. Furthermore, the disparity of PR 146 products prepared by different methods was investigated by UV–Vis spectra. The aqueous dispersion of PR 146 crystallized in miniemulsion had the highest absorbance and darkest color.
