HEAT-SENSITIVE RECORDING PAPER

Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to heat-sensitive recording paper and more specifically to heat-sensitive recording paper which is cheap and excellent in storage stability and which has high reliability to the thermal head.

Background Art

[0002] The heat-sensitive recording system which makes use of a basic colorless dye and an acidic substance capable of causing the color-development of the basic colorless dye upon heating shows various characteristic properties. For instance, the system does not require the use of any developing process and the maintenance of the hard thereof is very easy. For this reason, such a heat-sensitive recording system has widely been used in a variety of fields such as facsimiles, printers and recorders for measuring machinery and tools.

[0003] As substrates for the heat-sensitive recording paper, there have presently been used wood-free paper which does not contain any waste paper, but it is assumed that the waste paper will be more frequently used in the substrates for the heat-sensitive recording paper because of the increasing demand for the reduction in the cost of the heat-sensitive recording paper and reuse or recycling of paper-making pulp.

[0004] Incidentally, when waste paper is incorporated into the substrates for the heat-sensitive recording paper, the resulting recording paper suffers from a variety of problems. For instance, the color-printing density thereof is reduced (discoloration) during storage under a high humidity condition, fogging of the white ground thereof is caused during storage under a high temperature condition and further when a long term running test is performed, there is observed the dot-missing of a thermal head (partial breakage of the thermal head).

[0005] Accordingly, the object of the present invention is to provide heat-sensitive recording paper which is cheap, makes it possible to save resources, is excellent in storage stability and exhibits high reliability to the thermal head.

[0006] The inventors of this invention have conducted various studies to achieve the foregoing object and as a result have found out that the aforementioned object of the present invention can effectively be achieved if the amount of the surfactants remaining in a substrate for heat-sensitive recording paper can be reduced to a level of not more than 1,000 ppm in the case where the substrates for the heat-sensitive recording paper comprise waste paper. Moreover, the inventors have also found out that a more excellent effect can be attained by disposing a barrier layer between the foregoing substrate and a heat-sensitive recording layer.

[0007] In general, waste paper is prepared according to any combination of the following three processes:

(1) Defibration Process ^.... waste paper is treated mechanically and with a chemical to loosen into fibrous state and to thus peel off printing ink from the fibers.

(2) Process for Removing Dusts ^.... foreign substances (such as plastics) and dusts are removed.

(3) Process for Deinking^....the printing ink peeled off from the fibers is removed outside the system according to a floatation method or a washing method.

[0008] If the waste paper thus obtained is simply incorporated into a substrate for the heat-sensitive recording paper, the resulting recording paper is greatly affected by surfactants as deinking agents which are used in the foregoing deinking process (3). Thus, the recording paper causes discoloration during storage under a high humidity condition, fogging of the white ground thereof during storage under a high temperature condition and the dot-missing of the thermal head. The inventors of this invention have investigated the influence of these surfactants on the properties of the substrate containing the waste paper and have found out that if the deinking agent comprises, for instance, nonionic surfactants such as polyoxyethylene alkyl phenyl ethers, polyoxyethylene alkyl ethers or polyoxyethylene polyoxypropylene block polymers; or cationic surfactants such as quaternary ammonium salts, alkyltrimethylammonium chloride, cetyltrimethylammonium chloride and alkylbenzylmethylammonium chloride, the substrate containing the waste paper causes discoloration during storage under a high humidity condition and fogging of the white ground thereof during storage under a high temperature condition, while if the deinking agent comprises, for instance, anionic surfactants such as fatty acid soaps, alkylbenzenesulfonic acid salts, salts of higher alcohol sulfuric acid ester, α-olefinsulfonates and dialkylsulfosuccinates, the reliability of the substrate to the thermal head is greatly impaired. The present invention has been completed on the basis of the foregoing findings.

[0009] Consequently, the present invention relates to heat-sensitive recording paper which comprises a substrate provided thereon with a heat-sensitive recording layer, which comprises a basic colorless dye and an acidic substance capable of color-developing the basic colorless dye upon heating, wherein the substrate comprises waste paper and the amount of surfactants remaining in the substrate is controlled to not more than 1,000 ppm.

[0010] The present invention will hereinafter be explained in more detail.

[0011] In the heat-sensitive recording paper, there is used a substrate comprising waste paper.

[0012] The term "waste paper" is a generic name which embraces used paper, paper board or cutting scraps thereof.

[0013] The substrate used in the present invention may be completely composed of waste paper, but it preferably comprises waste paper in an amount of not more than 60%. If the waste paper is incorporated into the substrate in an amount of greater than 60%, the strength of the substrate is liable to be impaired and it is apt to cause a decrease in whiteness.

[0014] In addition, the content of the surfactants remaining in the substrate must be in general controlled to not more than 1,000 ppm and preferably not more than 800 ppm. The storage stability of the substrate is impaired and the dot-missing of the thermal head is apt to cause as the content of the remaining surfactants increases.

[0015] As the basic colorless dyes which may be used in the heat-sensitive recording paper of the present invention, there may be mentioned, for instance, triarylmethane type dyes such as 3,3-bis(p-dimethylaminophenyl)-6-dimethylaminophthalide, 3,3-bis(p-dimethylaminophenyl)phthalide, 3-(p-dimethylaminophenyl)-3-(1,2-dimethylindol-3-yl)phthalide, 3-(p-dimethylaminophenyl)-3-(2-methylindol-3-yl)phthalide, 3,3-bis(1,2-dimethylindol-3-yl)-5-dimethylaminophthalide, 3,3-bis(1,2-dimethylindol-3-yl)-6-dimethylaminophthalide, 3,3-bis(9-ethylcarbazol-3-yl)-6-dimethylaminophthalide, 3,3-bis (2-phenylindol-3-yl)-6-dimethylaminophthalide and 3-p-dimethylaminophenyl-3-(1-methylpyrrol-3-yl)-6-dimethylaminophthalide; diphenylmethane type dyes such as 4,4' -bis-dimethylaminobenzhydryl benzyl ether, N-halophenyl-leucoauramine and N-2,4,5-trichlorophenyl leucoauramine; thiazine type dyes such as benzoyl leucomethylene blue and p-nitrobenzoyl leucomethylene blue; spiro type dyes such as 3-methyl-spiro-dinaphthopyran, 3-ethyl-spiro-dinaphthopyran, 3-phenyl-spiro-dinaphthopyran, 3-benzyl-spiro-dinaphthopyran, 3-methyl-naphtho(6'-methoxybenzo)spiropyran and 3-propyl-spiro-dibenzopyran; lactam type dyes such as rhodamine-B-anilinolactam, rhodamine(p-nitroanilino)lactam and rhodamine(o-chloroanilino)lactam; and fluoran type dyes such as 3-dimethylamino-7-methoxyfluoran, 3-diethylamino-6-methoxyfluoran, 3-diethylamino-7-methoxyfluoran, 3-diethylamino-7-chlorofluoran, 3-diethylamino-6-methyl-7-chlorofluoran, 3-diethylamino-6,7-dimethylfluoran, 3-(N-ethyl-p-toluidino)-7-methylfluoran, 3-diethylamino-7-N-acetyl-N-methylaminofluoran, 3-diethylamino-7-N-methylaminofluoran, 3-diethylamino-7-dibenzylaminofluoran, 3-diethylamino-7-N-methyl-N-benzylaminofluoran, 3-diethylamino-7-N-chloroethyl-N-methylaminofluoran, 3-diethylamino-7-N-diethylaminofluoran, 3-(N-ethyl-p-toluidino)-6-methyl-7-phenylaminofluoran, 3-(N-ethyl-p-toluidino)-6-methyl-7-(p-toluidino)fluoran, 3-diethylamino-6-methyl-7-phenylaminofluoran, 3-diethylamino-7-(2-carbomethoxy-phenylamino)fluoran, 3-(N-ethyl-N-isoamylamino)-6-methyl-7-phenylaminofluoran, 3-(N-cyclohexyl-N-methylamino)-6-methyl-7-phenylaminofluoran, 3-pyrrolidino-6-methyl-7-phenylaminofluoran, 3-piperidino-6-methyl-7-phenylaminofluoran, 3-diethylamino-6-methyl-7-xylidinofluoran, 3-diethylamino-7-(o-chlorophenylamino)fluoran, 3-dibutylamino-7-(o-chlorophenylamino) fluoran, 3-pyrrolidino-6-methyl-7-p-butylphenylaminofluoran, 3-diethylamino-6-methyl-7-anilinofluoran, 3-butylamino-6-methyl-7-anilinofluoran and 3-(N-ethyl-N-isoamyl)amino-6-methyl-7-anilinofluoran.

[0016] As the inorganic or organic acidic substance capable of color-developing the basic colorless dyes by heating, a variety of compounds have been known and examples thereof include inorganic acidic substances such as active china clay, acidic china clay, attapulgite, bentonite, colloidal silica and aluminum silicate; and organic acidic compounds, for instance, phenolic compounds such as 4-tert-butylphenol, 4-hydroxydiphenoxide, α-naphthol, β-naphthol, 4-hydroxyacetophenol, 4-tert-octylcatechol, 2,2'-dihydroxydiphenol, 2, 2'-methylenebis (4-methyl-6-tert-isobutylphenol), 4,4'-isopropylidenebis (2- tert-butylphenol), 4,4'-sec-butylidenephenol, 4-phenylphenol, 4,4'-isopropylidenediphenol (bisphenol A), 2,2'-methylenebis(4-chlorophenol), hydroquinone, 4,4'-cyclohexylidenediphe nol, benzyl 4-hydroxybenzoate, dimethyl 4-hydroxyphthalate, hydroquinone monobenzyl ether, novolak type phenol resin and phenolic polymer; aromatic carboxylic acids such as benzoic acid, p-tert-butylbenzoic acid, trichlorobenzoic acid, terephthalic acid, 3-sec-butyl-4-hydroxybenzoic acid, 3-cyclohexyl-4-hydroxybenzoic acid, 3,5-dimethyl-4-hydroxybenzoic acid, salicylic acid, 3-isopropylsalicylic acid, 3-tert-butylsalicylic acid, 3-benzylsalicylic acid, 3-(α-methylbenzyl)salicylic acid, 3-chloro-5-(α-methylbenzyl)salicylic acid, 3,5-di-tert-butylsalicylic acid, 3-phenyl-5-( α, α-dimethylbenzyl)salicylic acid and 3,5-di-α-methylbenzylsalicylic acid; and salts of these phenolic compounds or aromatic carboxylic acids with multivalent metals such as zinc, magnesium, aluminum, calcium, titanium, manganese, tin and nickel.

[0017] The ratio of the amount of the basic colorless dye to that of the acidic substance in the heat-sensitive recording layer is appropriately selected depending on the kinds of these basic colorless dyes and the acidic substances employed, but in general the acidic substance is used in an amount ranging from 1 to 50 parts by weight and preferably in the order of 1 to 10 parts by weight per 1 part by weight of the basic colorless dye.

[0018] A coating solution containing these substances is prepared by simultaneously or separately dispersing the basic colorless dye and the acidic substance in a dispersion medium which is usually water utilizing an apparatus for agitation · pulverization such as a ball mill, an attritor and a sand grinder to thus give a coating solution. In this case, the particle size of the dispersed particles are desirably as small as possible and more specifically this dispersion process is desirably continued till the size of the dispersed particles reaches not more than 2µm.

[0019] Such a coating solution may comprise, as an adhesive, starches, hydroxyethyl cellulose, methyl cellulose, carboxymethyl cellulose, gelatin, casein, gum arabic, polyvinyl alcohol, salts of diisobutylene · maleic anhydride copolymers, salts of styrene · maleic anhydride copolymers, salts of ethylene · acrylic acid copolymers, salts of styrene · acrylic acid copolymers and styrene · butadiene copolymer emulsion in an amount ranging from 10 to 40% by weight and preferably 15 to 30% by weight on the basis of the total weight of the solid content of the solution.

[0020] In addition, the coating solution may further comprise a variety of auxiliary agents, for instance, dispersants such as sodium dioctylsulfosuccinate, sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate, lauryl alcohol sulfuric acid ester·lsodium salts, alginic acid salts and metal salts of fatty acids; and ultraviolet light absorbers such as benzophenol type and triazole type ultraviolet light absorbers; as well as other additives such as antifoaming agents, fluorescent dyes and coloring dyes.

[0021] Moreover, it is also possible to optionally add, to the coating solution, for instance, lubricants such as zinc stearate, calcium stearate, polyethylene wax, carnauba wax, paraffin wax and ester wax; inorganic pigments such as kaolin, clay, talc, calcium carbonate, calcined clay, titanium oxide, diatomaceous earth, finely pulverized anhydrous silica and active china clay; sensitizing agents such as stearic acid amide, stearic acid methylenebisamide, oleic acid amide, palmitic acid amide, sperm oil oleic acid amide, coconut oil fatty acid amide, meta-terphenyl, p-benzylbiphenyl, ester derivatives of hydroxynaphthoic acid, dibenzyl terephthalate and tribenzylamine.

[0022] In the present invention, it is preferred to dispose a barrier layer between the substrate and the heat-sensitive recording layer. The presence of such a barrier layer makes it possible to reduce the influence of the surfactants included in the substrate and to provide an improved heat-sensitive recording paper which does not show any discoloration and fogging of the white ground during storage and whose reliability to the thermal head is further enhanced.

[0023] The barrier layer can be formed from, for instance, film-forming polymeric compounds and examples thereof include casein, polyvinyl alcohol, ammonium alginate, methyl cellulose, hydroxyethyl cellulose, carboxymethyl cellulose, maleic anhydride copolymers, styrene · maleic anhydride copolymers and styrene · butadiene copolymers. These polymeric compounds are in general used in the form of an emulsion. In addition, the amount thereof to be coated in general ranges from 0.3 g/m² to 5.0 g/m² and preferably 0.5 g/m² to 2.0 g/m². This is because, if the coated amount of the polymer is less than 0.3 g/m², the effect of lowering the influence of the surfactants is impaired, while if it exceeds5.0 g/m², the resulting images are apt to have insufficient quality.

[0024] Moreover, a protective layer may optionally be applied onto the heat-sensitive recording layer.

[0025] Furthermore, an intermediate layer containing a pigment may also be applied onto the foregoing barrier layer. (Examples)

[0026] The present invention will hereinafter be explained in more detail with reference to the following Examples.

[0044] A test pattern was printed and recorded on each heat-sensitive recording paper with a heat-sensitive facsimile FF 621C (available from Fujitsu Limited) and the density of the white ground and the printed portion thereof were determined by a Macbeth densitometer RD-514. Further, the samples which had been printed with the facsimile FF 621C were used in the following storability test.

a) Resistance to Humidity

[0045] Each sample was stored under a high humidity condition of 40°C-90% RH for 24 hours and after the storage, the density of the white ground and the printed portion of the sample were determined by a Macbeth densitometer RD-514.
