Definitions

  • the invention relates to a paper layer with the preamble features of patent claim 1.
  • the present invention relates to a flat, printed or printable component with a paper layer of the aforementioned type and a method for producing such a component.
  • Paper layers for producing flat, printed or printable components for floor, wall, ceiling or furniture applications are also known from practice.
  • an ink-receiving layer is applied to the fiber structure of the actual paper layer. Investigations which have been carried out by the applicant have shown that the particles of the ink-receiving layer are on average a few micrometers.
  • the ink-receiving layer which has silicon dioxide and titanium dioxide as its main components, is applied over the entire surface of the top of the paper structure and rests on it, completely covering and hiding the paper structure.
  • the ink-receiving layer although it engages superficially in the fiber structure, is essentially arranged above the fiber structure and covers and thus closes the fibers and the spaces between the fibers.
  • the known paper produces an essentially closed, uniform surface, which leads to a very good print result.
  • This publication relates to a method and a device for producing a paper web printable by means of an inkjet printing process, which paper web is then applied to plates or panels.
  • the aim here is to provide an inkjet printing process, whereby the print result on the surface of the objects to be printed corresponds to the highest quality requirements in terms of appearance.
  • a paper web that is absorbent for liquid synthetic resin along its entire thickness is soaked from the underside with liquid synthetic resin in such a way that the synthetic resin does not completely penetrate the paper web, so that the other side of the paper web is at least essentially free of synthetic resin.
  • the from the EP 1 749 676 A1 known paper web has an upper-side, essentially resin-free area which makes up about 50% of the thickness of the paper web.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a paper layer of the type mentioned at the outset, in which, on the one hand, a very good print result is possible and, on the other hand, a good connection to the base body of a component and possibly to a protective layer on the top is ensured.
  • an ink-absorbing compound to be provided at least on the upper side of the fiber structure, which at least essentially encases the upper-side area of the fibers, and that open spaces in the coated fiber structure remain on the upper side of the paper layer, i.e. not covered by the ink-absorbing compound are.
  • a plurality of open spaces with a length of greater than 20 ⁇ m and / or an opening area of greater than 250 ⁇ m 2 are provided on the upper side of the paper layer.
  • the ink absorbing mass has particles with an average diameter of 50 nm to 400 nm and the weight per unit area of the ink absorbing mass is between 0.5 g / m 2 and 20 g / m 2 .
  • the invention is based, first of all, on the basic idea of providing an ink absorbing composition as a so-called pigment coating to which the printing ink or ink is applied. At the same time it is the case that the ink absorbing compound does not provide a quasi-closed, flat surface.
  • the fibers are sheathed or when dye absorbing particles in the nano range are used, uncovered, outwardly open spaces remain in the fiber structure, which ensure that the paper layer is sufficiently resinified. If the upper side of the fiber structure is only partially covered with the dye-absorbing compound, free areas remain in any case, which also ensure the necessary resin build-up.
  • the solution according to the invention is initially rejected by the applicant because it was feared that the paper layer with the incorporated or applied ink-absorbing mass, in which the structure caused by the cellulose fibers is ultimately still recognizable despite the color-absorbing mass, cannot achieve an adequate print result.
  • the invention does not result in a closed, essentially flat printing surface as in the prior art. In practical tests which were then carried out, however, it was found that the printing result that can be achieved with the paper according to the invention does not differ, or only insignificantly, from the printing result that is achieved with the known paper mentioned above.
  • the invention also offers the possibility that the paper layer can be printed with the ink absorbing material both before and after it is applied to the base body of a component.
  • the paper layer can be printed with the ink absorbing material both before and after it is applied to the base body of a component.
  • the printed paper layer can then be pressed with the base body of the component under the influence of pressure and heat, the resin first melting and then curing immediately.
  • the particles of the ink absorption compound should preferably have an average Have diameters between 100 nm and 300 nm and in particular between 150 nm and 250 nm. Very good tests have been achieved with particle sizes in the range of around 200 nm in diameter.
  • the paper layer according to the invention has an excellent resin coating, regardless of whether the resin coating is carried out from above or from below.
  • the aforementioned dimensions of the interspaces are not only provided "sporadically”, but if they are located on the entire upper side of the paper layer. It has been found that at least one intermediate space, preferably more than three and in particular more than ten intermediate spaces of the aforementioned type, should be provided on the upper side per unit area [nm 2 ].
  • the weight per unit area of the dye absorbing compound is between 0.5 g / m 2 and 20 g / m 2 .
  • a significantly lower proportion of ink absorbing compound is used than in the prior art. This has a considerable effect on the acquisition costs of the paper layer.
  • the costs of the paper according to the invention are lower by a factor of 3 than that of the paper known from practice mentioned at the beginning.
  • the ink absorbing compound also has titanium dioxide, barium sulfate and silicates, in particular as main components.
  • the dye-absorbing compound is basic. It has been found that the resin to be applied is generally basic, i.e. has a pH value greater than 7. It has also been found that the resin solidifies more easily or faster in an acidic environment than in a basic environment. In order to ensure that the resin is well resinated through, the ink absorbing compound and, if appropriate, the paper of the fiber structure should be basic.
  • the paper or the fiber structure should be a decorative paper that has a weight per unit area without resin content but with an ink absorbing mass between 30 g / m 2 and 300 g / m 2 , preferably between 50 g / m 2 and 120 g / m 2 and in particular about 70 g / m 2 .
  • the paper layer according to the invention with the ink-absorbing compound embedded in the fiber structure can in principle have no resin before the printing and only be resinated after the printing. In principle, however, it is also possible for the paper layer to be resinated in a defined manner from the underside before printing in such a way that the upper area of the fiber structure with little or no resin content extends preferably over a maximum of 30% of the thickness of the fiber structure. In particular, the upper paper layer area extends over a maximum of only 20% of the thickness of the paper layer and more preferably over a maximum of 10% of the thickness of the paper layer, each individual value between 0.1% of the thickness of the paper layer and 30% of the thickness of the paper layer being possible and expressly provided as being essential to the invention.
  • the aforementioned values of the thickness of the upper paper layer area relate to the not yet pressed state of the paper layer, that is, when the paper layer has not yet been applied to the base body of the component under the influence of pressure and / or heat.
  • an upper protective layer which is also resinified, is applied to a printed component, at least if it is used in the floor area, under the influence of pressure and heat.
  • the one from the EP 1 749 676 A1 known component after the protective layer has been pressed, a substantially resin-free layer area remains between the resin of the protective layer and the resin of the paper layer. Since the resin of the protective layer does not bond or does not bond sufficiently with that of the paper layer, this can, as already stated at the outset, lead to the protective layer becoming detached.
  • the present invention it has been recognized that a sufficient connection of the resin of the paper layer with the protective layer can be ensured by the comparatively large spaces between the fibers.
  • the amount of resin added to the underside is controlled in a process-technically defined manner as a function of the porosity and thus the absorbency of the paper layer and the viscosity of the resin. If the resin is applied, for example, via a roller that runs through an immersion bath, with the underside of the paper layer being guided over a roller, the immersion depth of the roller, the surface properties of the roller, the diameter of the roller and the contact pressure play a role as further process parameters the paper layer and the roller and the transport speed of the paper layer matter. It goes without saying that the resin can also be applied to the paper layer in another way, for example by nozzle application.
  • the paper layer In order to achieve a defined layer thickness of the upper paper layer area, it is also advisable for the paper layer to be impregnated from the top in a defined manner with a barrier liquid that does not mix with the resin, such that a preferably more than 30% of the thickness of the paper layer results Forms a barrier layer for the resin.
  • the application of the barrier liquid can take place in the same way as the application of the resin or in principle in a different manner. After the paper layer has been resinified, the barrier liquid is evaporated. The space originally occupied by the barrier liquid then forms the upper paper layer area. However, it goes without saying that it is basically also possible to add the barrier liquid in such a way that ultimately no defined barrier layer is created.
  • the barrier liquid contains the ink-absorbing mass according to the invention, which is deposited in the upper paper layer area after evaporation, so that the sheathing or coating of the fibers is then obtained.
  • the ink-absorbing mass can be applied in connection with or following the impregnation with barrier liquid.
  • the ink absorbing mass can be applied separately or together with the barrier liquid by rolling, spraying, knife coating, blade coating, air brushing, cast coating processes, film pressing, linen pressing, curtain casting processes and / or by slot nozzle application.
  • the resin coating can be carried out with just one resin or, if necessary, in several resin coating steps also with different resins in order to achieve certain properties of the paper layer.
  • the paper layer can be dried and then the ink absorbing compound can be applied. This can be followed by drying again.
  • a so-called wet / wet treatment takes place.
  • the ink absorbing material is applied before the resin has completely dried, i.e. is still in a liquid or gelled or gelled state. This is followed by the joint drying of the resin-coated paper layer provided with the ink-absorbing material.
  • the weight per unit area of the resin content in the paper according to the invention should be between 5 g / m 2 and 300 g / m 2 , preferably between 20 g / m 2 and 100 g / m 2 in order to ensure a good connection between the paper layer and the base body of the component and, if necessary, the protective layer to be provided.
  • the resin itself is preferred a reactivatable resin, in particular an aminoplast such as a melamine resin or a urea resin.
  • an aminoplast such as a melamine resin or a urea resin.
  • resins from the group of diallyl phthalates, epoxy resins, urea-formaldehyde resins, hamic acid-acetylic acid ester copolyesters, melamine-formaldehyde resins, melamine-phenol-formaldehyde resins, phenol-formaldehyde resins, poly (meth) acrylates or unsaturated polyester Resins used.
  • the paper layer in order to achieve good printing results, it is advantageous for the paper layer to be heated or warmed up before, during and / or after the application of the ink layer.
  • corresponding heating devices can be provided which heat the paper layer or the ink-absorbing mass. This can be done, for example, using an appropriate fan.
  • infrared, in particular NIR heating devices and / or microwave heating devices can be provided, which act directly on the water content in the paint layer. The heating or warming can, as stated above, take place before, during and / or after the printing.
  • one or more heaters can be provided, the heating path not only being provided at certain points, but also extending over a larger area, for example between 0 and 5 m and in particular between 0 and 2 m before and / or after the respective pressure point.
  • the temperature of these surfaces should advantageously be between 30 ° C. and 40 ° C., preferably around 35 ° C., during the preheating and / or post-heating.
  • the aforementioned heating leads to an immediate drying of the ink layer on the ink-receiving layer as soon as the printing ink or ink is released by the print head, as well as drying of the fiber structure. It should be pointed out in the present case that the aforementioned heating or warming is also of independent inventive importance, that is to say independently of the paper layer according to the invention.
  • the paper layer After drying, the paper layer is either cut on sheets or rolled up as a continuous web. In principle, with the method according to the invention, it is also possible for printing to take place before cutting / rolling up.

Since the ink absorbing compound 9 is very fine-grained, namely has particles with an average diameter in the nano range, the ink absorbing compound 9 encases the fibers 6 of the upper area of the fiber structure 7. Due to the fine grain of the particles of the ink absorbing compound 9, the coated fiber structure 7 remains on the upper side the top side 2 of the paper layer 1 also forms open spaces 8.
