An ink set includes a non-white ink composition and a white ink composition, and the non-white ink composition and the white ink composition are each an aqueous ink jet ink. The non-white ink composition contains a silicone-based surfactant A having a maximum peak within a molecular weight range of 3,000 to 20,000 within a molecular weight range of 300 or more in a molecular weight distribution in gel permeation chromatography, and the white ink composition contains a silicone-based surfactant B having a HLB value of 10.5 or less by Griffin method, but not having a maximum peak within a molecular weight range of 3,000 or more within a molecular weight range of 300 or more in a molecular weight distribution in gel permeation chromatography.

A molecular ink contains a silver carboxylate (e.g. silver neodecanoate), a solvent (e.g. terpineol) and a polymeric binder comprising a polyester, polyimide, polyether imide or any mixture thereof having functional groups that render the polymeric binder compatible with the solvent. Such an ink may have good thermal stability with higher silver carboxylate content.

Disclosed is an inkjet ink that is jettable through standard inkjet nozzles, yet creates a non-abrasive non-porous three-dimensional glass structure on a 1-100 micron-scale without the need for additional processes beyond those normally used for the inkjet decoration of glass substrates. Such an inkjet ink can avoid the drawbacks noted above and is described herein.

Compositions and methods for coupling metals to aluminum surfaces are provided. The compositions are prepared as aqueous solutions or suspensions, and can be applied to the aluminum surface using conventional printing techniques. Rheology of the printable composition can be adjusted to provide a gel or a cream. Curing steps, if necessary, are performed at low temperatures that are compatible with plastic/polymer components of mass produced devices, such as aluminum RFID antennae.
