An ink set containing an inkjet ink and a treatment liquid, wherein the inkjet ink contains a pigment, a water-soluble organic solvent, a surfactant and water, the water-soluble organic solvent contains an alkyl diol (A) of 2 to 8 carbon atoms, the weighted average boiling point of the water-soluble organic solvent at one atmosphere is from 175 to 240° C., the surfactant contains an acetylenediol-based surfactant, the treatment liquid contains a coagulant, calcium nitrate is included as the coagulant in an amount of 6.8 to 20.8% by mass relative to the total mass of the treatment liquid, and the pH of the treatment liquid is from 2 to 11.

The present application provides switchable, homogeneous paint composition and methods of painting and/or forming films or coatings using the composition. The composition includes a liquid having an aqueous solution and dissolved acid gas (e.g., carbonated water), and a switchable polymer. The switchable polymer converts from a protonated, water-soluble form in the liquid to a water-insoluble unprotonated form following removal or substantial removal of the liquid and acid gas.

A battery includes a first conductive substrate portion having a first face, and a second conductive substrate portion having a second face opposed to the first face. Each of the first and second faces has a perimeter portion and an interior portion inside the perimeter portion. A first electrode material of the battery is disposed in contact with the interior portion of at least one of the first and second faces, and a jettable electrolyte material disposed in contact with the first electrode material. A second electrode material is disposed in contact with the electrolyte material, and a conductive tab is disposed in contact with the second electrode material. The conductive tab extends outwardly from the interior region beyond the perimeter portion of at least one of the first and second faces.

Methods for coloration of substrates, including textiles, by plasma polymerization of dyes to which polymerizable moieties have been chemically bonded at sites on the dye capable of bonding to such moieties, and that have been deposited on at least one surface of the substrate, are described. Atmospheric pressure plasmas were used for the polymerization process. Generally, the plasma polymerization is performed away from the dye deposition so that undeposited dye is not exposed to the plasma. Textiles may include cotton, polyester, wool, silk, acrylics, polypropylene, polyolefins, aramids, and nylon, and blends thereof. The plasma-polymerizable moiety may be chosen from acrylates, methacrylates, and vinyl amides. Dye functional groups may include hydroxyl groups, carboxyl groups, amines: primary, secondary, and tertiary, epoxides, carboxylic acids, and chlorides, and dyes may include acid dyes, disperse dyes, azo dyes, vat dyes, sulfur dyes, direct dyes, reactive dyes, basic dyes, pigment dyes, aniline dyes, anthraquinone dyes, and coumarin dyes, as examples.
