In a three-dimensional printing method example, a pre-treatment coating is formed on a part precursor by applying and drying, alternatingly: a polycation solution including a chloride ion and a polyanion solution including a sodium ion to form at least two layers. An ink is selectively deposited on the pre-treatment coating.

The present invention is based on a method for marking products using two or more ink formulations, each containing one or more photoluminescent dyes emitting radiation in the range of 380-3000 nm under photon excitation and distinguished by different fluorescence lifetimes, for storing information in serialization and/or track & trace systems and for document security.

A thermal inkjet dye sublimation ink consists of a cyan disperse dye colorant dispersion, glycerol, a water soluble or water miscible organic solvent, a chelating agent, additive(s), and water. The colorant dispersion is present in an amount ranging from about 1 wt % actives to about 7 wt % actives. Glycerol is present in an amount ranging from about 10 wt % to about 22 wt %, and the water soluble or miscible organic solvent is present in an amount ranging from 0 wt % to about 7 wt %. The chelating agent is present in an amount greater than 0 wt % actives and less than 0.1 wt % actives. The additive is selected from the group consisting of a buffer, a biocide, a surfactant, and combinations thereof.
