In general, inkjet is considered to be a recording technique. However, research is currently being
conducted in many fields such as 3D printers and food related fields.We are investigating releasing agent
coating method using electrostatically extracted inkjet method. A release agent is necessary when taking out
a modeled object in a form. This is to prevent the shape of the model from collapsing. Methods for coating
release agents include manual work and spraying. However, this method has problems such as scattering of
the release agent into the space and contamination of the surroundings.
In this paper, we report various fundamental characteristics such as flight characteristics of release agent.
