The present disclosure is drawn to ink fixative solutions, which can consist essentially of a polyvalent metal salt, a holdout additive, and water. The polyvalent metal salt can be present in an amount from about 1 wt % to about 5 wt %, with respect to the entire weight of the ink fixative solution. The holdout additive can be present in an amount from about 2 wt % to about 20 wt %, with respect to the entire weight of the ink fixative solution. The holdout additive can be polyethylene glycol, glycerol, carboxy methyl cellulose, hydroxy ethyl cellulose, a fatty acid, a fatty acid ethoxylate, or combinations thereof.

A foldable paper-based substrate coated with primer coat and top coat. Primer coat includes a wax-free aqueous dispersion wherein a dry film thereof has a flexibility of at least 1100% for a film thickness from about 1.0 to about 2.5 mm. Top coat is blocking resistant and includes an aqueous dispersion of a polymer providing water resistance, grease or oil resistance, heat resistance, odor barrier, moisture barrier and/or heat sealability to the paper-based product. The top coat aqueous dispersion is characterized in that a dry film thereof has a flexibility of at least 570% for a film thickness from about 1.5 to about 2.5 mm. A process for preparing the coated foldable paper-based substrate includes applying the primer coat to the surface of the paper-based substrate, applying the top coat and drying the coats. The primer coat may be dried before application of the top coat.

The disclosure relates to a coating composition that can be applied to a substrate, especially a cellulose substrate. A layer of the coating composition applied to the substrate provides an excellent ink receptive layer and can be used as a coating on paper. The disclosure also relates to aqueous compositions and method for applying the layer of the coating composition onto the substrate.
