A coated medium for inkjet printing is disclosed. The coated medium includes a coating layer formed on at least one side of a supporting substrate. The coating layer includes precipitated calcium carbonate with an average particle size of less than about 1 micron, silica with a surface area of greater than 100 m/g, a third inorganic pigment with an average particle size greater than that of precipitated calcium carbonate and selected from the group consisting of ground calcium carbonate (GCC) and clays, and at least one binder, wherein silica is present in an amount of at least 15 parts based on 100 parts of inorganic pigments in total.

Coated medium for inkjet printing and method of fabricating the same

Media coating composition and inkjet recording media including it. An example composition includes a total solid content ranging from about 10 to about 65 weight percent by total weight of the composition. The solid content includes from about 80 to about 99 weight percent of insoluble starch nanoparticles having a particle size ranging from about 50 to about 300 nm and from about 1 to about 20 weight percent of fillers by total weight of the solid content. A disclosed example inkjet recording media includes a supporting substrate, and the coating composition disposed on the substrate.

Coating compositions including starch nanoparticles

An inkjet recording material which comprises a supporting substrate, a first bottom base coat applied to at least one surface of said substrate, and a second topcoat layer applied over said base coat. In said inkjet recording material, the base coat includes a combination of at least three pigments and the topcoat layer comprises pigments selected from the group consisting of fumed silica, silica gel, precipitated silica, colloidal silica, fumed alumina, boehmite, pseudo-boehmite or a mixture thereof.
