Abstract

The present disclosure provides binary ink sets and related methods. In one example, a binary ink set for printing a non-Newtonian inkjet image can comprise a gelator inkjet ink comprising a gelator in an amount ranging from 0.1% to 10% by weight based on the total weight of the gelator ink and an organic solvent; and a colorant inkjet ink comprising a colorant and an organic solvent. The gelator inkjet ink and the colorant inkjet ink can be configured to form a structured network upon printing where the non-Newtonian inkjet ink has a first dynamic viscosity ranging from 25 cps to 10,000 cps at a first state and a second dynamic viscosity ranging from 1 cps to 50 cps at a second state, measured at 25° C.
