In an example of a method for three-dimensional (3D) printing, a build material composition is applied to form a build material layer. The build material composition includes a polymeric or polymeric composite build material, and a precipitating agent. Based on a 3D object model, a fusing agent is selectively applied on at least a portion of the build material composition. The fusing agent includes a radiation absorber, which the precipitating agent precipitates. The build material composition is exposed to radiation to fuse the at least the portion to form a layer of a 3D part.

An ink jet recording method performs recording on a recording medium using a white ink composition, a non-white ink composition, and a treatment liquid containing an aggregating agent, the method including: a treatment liquid adhesion step of adhering the treatment liquid to the recording medium to form a treatment liquid layer; a non-white ink adhesion step of adhering the non-white ink composition to the recording medium by ejection thereof from an ink jet head to form a non-white ink layer; and a white ink adhesion step of adhering the white ink composition to the recording medium by ejection thereof from an ink jet head to form a white ink layer. The recording medium has a region in which the non-white ink layer, the white ink layer, and the treatment liquid layer are overlapped with each other, at least one of the ink compositions contains resin particles and a water-soluble resin, and the water-soluble resin has a glass transition temperature higher than that of a resin of the resin particles.

The present invention provides water-based energy curable compositions that exhibit improved printability, adhesion, opacity, and wash-up properties. The compositions comprise one or more inert water-based polyurethane resins and one or more water-based phosphate esters. Addition of the inert polyurethane resins and phosphate esters improves adhesion of the energy curable compositions to a variety of substrates.
