Abstract:
A heat-sensitive recording material is disclosed which comprises a support sheet of 5-40.mu. in thickness having thereon a heat-sensitive transfer layer containing a phenolic material, a colorless or pale-colored chromogenic material which forms a color with said phenolic material upon application of heat and a heat fusible material having a melting point of 40.degree.-150.degree. C. and an image receiving sheet superposed on the surface of said layer which are made into one integral sheet by pressing. Using this recording material, sufficiently high density of record can be obtained even by low heat energy, and the background (non-record portion) forms substantially no color to result in high contrast of record.
Abstract:
A thermal sensitive paper having a heat sensitive layer containing a color-developing lactone compound and a phenol compound is amazingly lessened in release of tailings liable to deposit on the thermal head of a thermal printer, facsimile or such in the printing operation when a layer containing light calcium carbonate or an oil-absorptive inorganic powdery material is provided between the heat sensitive layer and the support.
Abstract:
This invention relates to a method for dispersing a suspension of solid particles into the colloidal state, which comprises charging grinding media and said dispersion into a vessel so that the volume ratio of the grinding media and the suspension is within a range of from 2/1 to 1/2 and agitating the suspension and the grinding media by rotating one agitation rod mounted on the tip end of an agitation shaft at the lower part of the central portion of the vessel so that the peripheral velocity of the tip of the agitation rod is within a range of from 6 to 20 m/sec. The invention also is directed to an apparatus for practicing this method.
Abstract:
Thermosensitive recording material for use in thermal printing, which is composed of a coating composition applied on a support, which coating composition comprises (a) a chromogenic compound, (b) an organic acid, (c) a water-soluble binder containing a carboxyl group and having a softening point of 200.degree. C or higher, (d) a filler, (e) a metal salt of a higher fatty acid and (f) a wax, said recording material having a Bekk surface smoothness of 100 to 500 seconds.
Abstract:
Equipment which automatically manufactures cushioning material by filling air inside polyvinyl alcohol laminated paper and sealing the filled material into individual bags. The manufacturing equipment 1 is provided with a material roll 20 on which a sheet material of polyvinyl alcohol laminated paper is wound. The sheet material 10 is rolled out by a feeding roller 40 from the material roll 20, and the sheet material 10 in a known length, adjusted by a length adjusting device 50 having a roller 42 which goes up and down, is supplied intermittently to a bag forming device 100 located downstream thereof. The bag forming device 100 is provided with a pipe member 105 and a sailor 110, which is a guide plate to reverse the sheet material 10 and form it into a tubular shape, and the sheet material 10 is fed along the pipe member 105 after being formed into a tubular shape. Feed rollers 130 and auxiliary belt 120 are arranged at the periphery of the pipe member 105. The feed rollers 130 catch the superposed sections of both edges of the sheet material formed into a tubular shape and feed the material, inserting the superposed section into a center sealer 150. The center sealer 150 is provided with a heater and welds together the superposed sections. As a result of this welding, the sheet material is formed into a long tube. The center sealed tubular sheet material is further sent downstream from the lower end of the pipe member 105. Air is supplied from the top of the pipe member 105, and the air is filled inside the tubular sheet material. In such condition, the sheet material is sent to the end sealer/cutter. The end sealer/cutter 160 is provided with a pair of end sealers facing each other which weld the tubular sheet material into a bag shape and cut the material into individual bags with a cutter 165. At this time, the air amount is adjusted by the filled air amount adjusting device 170. The air filled cushioning material 200 is sent to the next process by a conveyor 210.
Abstract:
A thermal sensitive paper having a heat sensitive layer containing a color-forming lactone compound and a phenol compound is amazingly lessened in possible deposition of its residue on the thermal head during the printing operation when finely divided urea-formaldehyde resin is incorporated in at least one of the heat sensitive layer, support and between said heat sensitive layer and support.
Abstract:
A heat-sensitive recording composition comprising a normally colorless or pale-colored chromogenic substance, a phenolic substance capable of developing the color of said chromogenic substance at an elevated temperature, and a water-soluble binder is not water resistant, but when incorporated with a compound having 2 to 10 1,2-epoxy ring structures ##EQU1## in one molecule as a hardner for said binder, the composition is rendered highly water resistant. Further, a coating liquid containing the said composition is prevented from coloration, and a recording sheet prepared by coating the said coating liquid on a support is prevented from coloration in texture.
