WHITE INK FOR INKJET PRINTING - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18416184 titled 'WHITE INK FOR INKJET PRINTING
Simplified Explanation: The patent application describes a white ink for inkjet printing that contains titanium oxide particles in an aqueous medium. The titanium oxide particles consist of both anatase-type and rutile-type titanium oxide particles with specific mass percentages and particle diameters.
- The white ink for inkjet printing contains titanium oxide particles in an aqueous medium.
- The titanium oxide particles include both anatase-type and rutile-type particles.
- The anatase-type particles have a mass percentage between 17.50% and 37.50%.
- The rutile-type particles have a mass percentage between 72.50% and 82.50%.
- Both types of titanium oxide particles have a primary particle diameter between 140 nm and 340 nm.

Original Abstract Submitted
A white ink for inkjet printing contains titanium oxide particles and an aqueous medium. The titanium oxide particles include anatase-type titanium oxide particles and rutile-type titanium oxide particles. The anatase-type titanium oxide particles have a percentage content of at least 17.50% by mass and no greater than 37.50% by mass in the titanium oxide particles. The rutile-type titanium oxide particles have a percentage content of at least 72.50% by mass and no greater than 82.50% by mass in the titanium oxide particles. Both the anatase-type titanium oxide particles and the rutile-type titanium oxide particles have a number average primary particle diameter of at least 140 nm and no greater than 340 nm.
