Ink jet recording method, ink jet recording apparatus, and recorded matter
An ink jet recording method includes layer forming which includes image recording which records an image by discharging an ink composition which contains water and coloring materials on a recording surface of a recording medium having low absorbency or non-absorbency to ink, and protective layer forming which forms a protective layer on the image by discharging a clear ink composition which contains resin particles and substantially does not contain a coloring material; and heating and drying which includes first heating which heats the recording surface at a glass transition temperature or more of the resin particles after the layer forming, and first drying which performs ventilation while heating the recording surface at a heating temperature or less of the recording surface in the first heating after the first heating, in which the drying time in the first drying is two times or more the heating time in the first heating.
1. An ink jet recording method comprising:
forming a layer, the forming of the layer including:
recording an image on a recording surface of a recording medium by discharging an ink composition which contains coloring materials, the recording surface of the recording medium having low absorbency or non-absorbency to ink; and
forming a protective coating on the image by discharging a clear ink composition which contains resin particles and which substantially does not contain a coloring material; and
heating and drying the layer, the heating and drying of the layer including:
performing first heating of the recording surface at a first temperature, the first temperature being equal to or higher than a glass transition temperature of the resin particles for a first period of time after the layer is formed on the recording surface of the recording medium; and
after the first heating, performing first drying of the recording surface by performing ventilation while heating the recording surface at a second temperature for a second period of time, the second temperature being equal to or lower than the first temperature,
wherein the second period of time is at least two times longer than the first period of time,
wherein the heating and drying includes second drying which is performed during the layer forming and prior to the first heating,
the second drying performs ventilation while drying the recording surface at a third temperature that is lower than the second temperature of the recording surface in the first drying, and
wherein an air speed due to the ventilation of the second drying is less than an aft speed due to the ventilation of the first drying.
