Definitions
- This invention relates to an image receptor used for image recording such as electrophotography or printer. More specifically, the invention relates to an image receptor useful for image recording using only a dye material itself as inking material.
- a variety of image recording methods using only a dye material itself as inking material have been proposed hitherto.
- a one-shot electrophotographic method using light transmitting particles containing a subliming color former as disclosed in Japanese Patent Publication No. 49307/80; a sublimation transfer method in which a color sheet prepared by coating a condenser paper or the like with a subliming dye is heated by a heating element so that the sublimed dye develops color on an image receptor; and a gas jet recording method disclosed in Japanese Patent Publication No. 2020/81 in which gas of a subliming dye is electrically injected and controlled to obtain a dye image on an image receptor.
- Such bottom paper had the problem of reduced color purity of the dye image for such reasons that (1) activated clay is tinted in light brown, and (2) the color-forming layer becomes opaque because of poor transparency of activated clay. Therefore, said bottom paper was not suitable for color recording especially.
- the object of this invention is to provide an image receptor used for image recording employing only a dye material itself as inking material, in which the color-forming layer containing color developer is transparent.
- the image receptor of this invention is of a structure in which a color forming layer principally composed of silica is provided on a substrate, and said color forming layer has the function to let the dye develop color in a molecular state and uniformly.
- the drawing is a schematic sectional view showing an embodiment of image receptor in accordance with this invention.
- a color-forming layer 3 principally composed of silica 2 is carried on a substrate 1 as illustrated in the drawing.
- Silica 2 is used as color developer and has excellent transparency. It is colorless and suffers from no thermal yellowing because of heat resistance, making it possible to obtain a dye image with high color purity.
- silica used in this invention there can be employed silicates represented by xM 2 I O ⁇ ySiO 2 such as xNa 2 O-ySiO 2 , xA1 2 0 3 .ySi0 2 and xMgO ⁇ YSiO 2 , silicic acids represented by xH 2 O ⁇ ySiO 2 , and amorphous, glassy or colloidal silicon dioxide.
- colloidal silica with a pH of 6 or below is especially excellent as it has the excellent ability to cause color development of dye and that the color forming layer can be easily made transparent.
- substrate 1 various types of substrate material can be applied according to the purpose of use. For instance, fine-quality paper or art paper with high whiteness is suited for reflective pictures such as documents. Plastic sheet with excellent transparency and heat resistance such as vinylon, cellophane, acetyl-cellulose or the like is suited for transmitting pictures such as slides.
- Color forming layer 3 can be made transparent by coating silica finely dispersed in a binder on substrate 1 by a usual means such as bar coater.
- the particle size of silica is preferably not greater than 0.1 micron.
- the binder is preferably one which is strong in binding force, transparent and also excellent in silica dispersability.
- styrene-butadiene copolymer, ethyl cellulose, acrylic resin or the like is preferred.
- a combination of styrene-butadiene copolymer and colloidal silica is especially suited for the applications where the image receptor is heated since such combination is hardened and improved in heat resistance when heated.
- the color forming layer porous so that the dye becomes more easily absorbed by silica.
- the amount of the binder used is not greater than 30% by weight based on silica.
- the coating weight of the color forming layer for effecting sufficient color development of the dye is preferably 1 - 10 g/m although it is variable depending on the type of the dye used.
- This color forming layer solution was coated on a sheet of art paper to a coating weight (after drying) of 6 g/m 2 to obtain an image receptor A for reflective picture.
- the color forming layer solution of Example 1 was coated on a vinylon sheet to a coating weight of 6 g/m 2 to obtain an image receptor B for transmitting picture. Transmittance of the image receptor was 90%.
- a mixture of the following formulation was sufficiently dispersed by an attritor to prepare a color forming layer solution.
- This color forming layer solution was coated on a fine-quality paper to a coating weight (after drying) of 8 g/m 2 to obtain an image receptor C for reflective picture.
- a yellow disperse dye ("P T -52 Y " produced by Mitsubishi Kasei Kogyo KK), a magenta basic dye (C.I. Basic Red 9) and a magenta subliming color former (7'-diethylamino-1,3,3,5-tetramethyl-indolinobenzospiropyran) were coated on a 15 micron thick condenser paper by using ethyl cellulose as binder to prepare three types of color sheets D, E and F.
- Examples and said color sheets were placed one upon the other and heated under the conditions of 180°C, 5 seconds and 1 kg/cm2, whereby the distinct yellow and magenta color images such as shown in Table 1 were obtained on the image receptor.
- the numerical figures in the table indicate color density.
- Color sheet F was superposed on the yellow color images obtained by using color sheet D in Experiment 1, and heated under the same conditions as Experiment 1, whereby the distinct red color images such as shown in Table 2 were obtained.
- the image receptor of this invention can make the color forming layer transparent as silica with excellent transparency is used as color developer. Therefore, there is no possibility that the dye which developed color below the color forming layer be concealed by the color developer thereabove to reduce the developed color density, and the whole color forming layer becomes a colored transparent body, so that a dye image with high developed color density can be obtained, enabling realization of high-quality pictures by electrophotography or printers.
