An example of a radiation curable binder dispersion for an inkjet ink includes water and a radiation curable polyurethane dispersed in the water. The radiation curable polyurethane has a weight average molecular weight that is equal to or less than 5,000, a glass transition temperature (T.sub.g) less than 25° C., and a double bond density higher than 4.0. The radiation curable polyurethane binder dispersion is formed from a non-aromatic diisocyanate; a polyol; an acrylate or methacrylate, the acrylate or methacrylate having at least two hydroxyl functional groups and having an acrylate functional group or a methacrylate functional group; a compound including i) an ionic group or ii) a group to form an ionic group; and another acrylate or methacrylate, the other acrylate or methacrylate having a hydroxyl functional group or an amino functional group.

An ink jet recording method is a method in which a cyan ink, a magenta ink, a black ink, and a yellow ink radiation that are curable inks are ejected from ink jet heads to attach the radiation curable inks to a recording medium. The method includes, in this order, a first step of attaching the cyan ink, the magenta ink, and the black ink onto the recording medium and applying temporary curing radiation to the recording medium and a second step of attaching the yellow ink onto the recording medium and applying full curing radiation to the recording medium without applying the temporary curing radiation.

The present invention discloses a hybrid (mixed) formulation composition for 3D additive manufacturing and a manufacturing process. The hybrid formulation composition possesses capability of UV radiation curing and thermal curing. The hybrid formulation composition is designed to be cured by UV radiation in the 3D printing/additive manufacturing process and then post cure by heat to get its final properties. The hybrid formulation composition consists of acrylates (oligomer, monomer, and diluent), photoinitiators, and isocyanate-containing prepolymers which comprises polyols (di-ol, tri-ol) and isocyanates. The hybrid formulation composition may also include reaction accelerator, dye, pigment, and fillers. The finished products of the hybrid formulation composition possess rubber-like properties and can be used in the applications such as shoe sole, toys, medical, and wearables goods . . . etc.
