Abstract

The present invention relates to an inkjet recording element having very good stability to ozone and to light. Said recording element comprises a support and at least one ink receiving layer, said ink-receiving layer comprising at least one amorphous silica polymer having a degree of condensation between 75% and 88%. Such a polymer can be obtained by sol-gel pathway in acid catalytic conditions from silicon alcoxides.

Claims (12)

1 . An inkjet recording element, comprising a support and at least one ink-receiving layer, wherein said ink-receiving layer comprises at least one amorphous silica polymer having a degree of condensation between 75% and 88%.

2 . The recording element according to claim 1 , wherein said amorphous silica polymer is obtained by sol-gel pathway in acid catalytic conditions from silicon alkoxides.

3 . The recording element according to claim 2 , wherein the silicon alkoxide is tetraethyl orthosilicate.

4 . The recording element according to claim 2 , wherein the acid used for the acid catalysis comprises an acid selected from the group consisting of hydrochloric acid, perchlorhydric acid and nitric acid.

5 . The recording element according to claim 1 , wherein said amorphous silica polymer has a degree of condensation between 75% and 87%.

6 . The recording element according to claim 5 , wherein said amorphous silica polymer has a degree of condensation between 75% and 86%.

7 . The recording element according to claim 6 , wherein said amorphous silica polymer has a degree of condensation between 80% and 86%.

8 . The recording element according to claim 7 , wherein said amorphous silica polymer has a degree of condensation between 84% and 86%.

9 . The recording element according to claim 1 , wherein the ink-receiving layer comprises between 5% and 95% by weight of said amorphous silica polymer compared with the total weight of the dry receiving layer.

10 . The recording element according to claim 1 , wherein the ink-receiving layer comprises a hydrosoluble binder.

11 . The recording element according to claim 10 , wherein the hydrosoluble binder is gelatin or polyvinyl alcohol.

12 . The use of at least one amorphous silica polymer having a degree of condensation between 75% and 88% as receiving agent in an ink-receiving layer of an inkjet recording element.
