Abstract

A process for forming a chain extended thermoplastic polymer which includes reacting: (i) a prepolymer having one or more guanidinium or biguanidinium units and having at least one reactive end group; and (ii) a chain extender having at least two groups able to react with reactive end group(s) in (i). The polymer used as fixing agent to reduce highlighter smear of prints prepared by ink jet printing.
