COSMETIC INK COMPOSITION COMPRISING A SURFACE TENSION MODIFIER - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18443360 titled 'COSMETIC INK COMPOSITION COMPRISING A SURFACE TENSION MODIFIER

The cosmetic ink composition in this patent application includes a particulate material, a polymeric dispersant, a rheology modifier, and a surface tension modifier, which can be C1-C16 alcohols, C5-C18 diols, or mixtures thereof. The particulate material has a Particle Size Distribution D50 ranging from about 100 nm to about 2,000 nm. The rheology modifier can be alkali swellable emulsion polymers, hydrophobically modified alkali swellable emulsion polymers, or a combination of both. The cosmetic ink composition has a surface tension of about 20 to 45 mN/m.

• Particulate material with specific size distribution
• Surface tension modifier options
• Rheology modifier choices
