Abstract

ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE

Although it is known to produce images, writings or drawings by the use of conventional chalks and crayons, such images cannot be permanently fixed by simple means. Therefore, enamels are sometimes used to produce a permanent image. How-ever, such enamels are expensive and require firing at high temperatures. The present invention overcomes these problems by providing a drawing and painting stick, in the form of school chalk, for producing images adapted to be fixed by the use of heat. By means of such a stick, images, writing, drawings, and the like may be produced in the usual manner upon a base and then be permanently fixed by the application of moderate temperatures. Thus, the drawing and painting stick according to the invention allows the user to produce designs or drawings as if conventional chalks were being used, and then to fix them permanently, very quickly and simply, so that they adhere firmly and are impact-resistant. The stick comprises a major proportion of a thermoplastic or heat-curable thermosetting synthetic resin composition together with colouring matter including at least 5% by weight of the stick of pigment.

Description

3~

The present invention re:Lates to a drawing and painting stick in the form of school chalk for producing images adapted to be fixed by the use of heat.
Already known are drawing and painting sticks in the form of rods of varying thicknesses made from pressed lime and/or gypsum and posslbly colour-producing pigments.
Images, writing, or drawings produced with chalks of this kind cannot be permanently fixed by simple means, and the same applies to most crayons on the market.
It is also known how to produce coloured designs upon ceramic and metal panels or the like by applying thereto a paste of meltable mineral powders and by then heating these powders to a molten condition. This process requires two operations, namely, first operation of applying to a panel a covering coat of a so-called base enamel followed by the application of a coloured design to this enamel, and then the second and separate operation of baking the panel.
These processes operate at temperatures of about 800C and require expensive enamels or coloured covering ena-mel powders the colours of which do not always turn out cor-rectly after firing. Thus the production of coloured designs by enamelling requires the use of a special and expensive kiln to produce the desired firing temperatures. It also re-quires considerable technical knowledge. This militates against the general use of such processes, by hobbyists for example, for the purpose of producing permanent coloured designs or images on stable bases such as sheet metal, glass, or the like.
Also known are crayons made of pigments and synthe-tic materials. However, since these materials have leadsmade of a hard fusible substance like pencil leads, they are not suita~le for forming drawing or painting sticks in the 3~
form of school chalks which can be used for producing images which can also be fixed upon bases by the use of heat.
Thus German OS 2 255 519 discloses a marking pencil consisting of a powdered pigment, a thermoplastic resin, metal soaps and other additives, and characterized in that it contains as a thermoplastic resin, an epoxy resin which is solid and unhardened at room temperature, and in addition pos-sibly other thermoplastlc synthetic resins. This mi.xture of resin and additives is extruded into leads at temperatures of at least 140C, and these are then processed into pencil leads of varying degrees of hardness.
In contrast to this, it is the purpose of the inven-tion to provide a drawing and painting stlck, in the form of school chalk for producing images adapted to be fixed by the use of heat, by means of said e:Lement images, writing, drawings, and the like may be produced in the usual manner upon a base, upon which they may then be permanently fixed by the use of temperatures of typically only about 200C~
The invention thus.relates to a drawing and painting stick, in the form of school cha~ for producing imagQs adapted to be fixed by the use of heat, said stick being formed of a finely powdered mixture of colouring matter including at least one pigment and a bonding agent consisting of a composition containing at least one thermoplastic or heat-curable synthe-~ic resin, said composition being capable of melting and/or curing under the influence of heat to orm a vehicle for said colouring matter, the powdered mixture being pressure bonded, ~
at a temperature below the melting or curing temperature of ~ ;
the resin com~osition, to form a rigid stick containing at least 5% by weight of pigment and a major proportion of syn-thetic resin compositionO
The synthetic resin composition is prefe~ably a mixture of an epoxy resin and apolyester resin in a weight ~9~Z3~
ratio of be-tween 0.5:1 and 1.5:1, preferably 1:1. The colou-ring matter may include at least one dye soluble in the syn-thetic resin composition.
A preferred method of forming the stick comprises mixing the powdered constituents and applying high pressure thereto at room temperature, preferably in an extrusion press.
The mixture is then cooled, bxoken up and ground to a maximum particle size of 60 ~m. The powdered mixture thus obtained is then pressed into drawing or painting sticks at room tem-perature and at a pressure of 90 bars. Individual drawing orpainting sticks may also be cu~ from a previously pressed block.
A layer cf lacquer is then preferably applied to the sticks thus obtained. This not only increases their strength, but also largely prevents the user from dirtying his fingers. Instead of, or as wel:L as, the layer of lacquer, a wrapping of aluminum foil, paper, wood, or the like may be provided.
The synthetic resin composition utilized in sticks a~cording to the invention may also contain in addition to synthetic resins, plasticizers, fillers, extenders and other additives cust~marily present in thermoplastic or thermoset-ting resins.
~ As already indicated, the drawing and painting stick according to the invention may be used for producing images and the like which may then be permanently fixed by the use of heat. These images, or the like t may be produced upon any desired base which can withstand the heat-treatment temperature, for instance sheet metal, stoneware, glass, wood, synthetic materials, etc.
If the base is a good heat conductor, the design may be fixed thereon merely by heating the base from below until the material applied adheres to the base and/or, if use !. '' .

is made of a thermosetting synthet:ic resin incorporating a hardener, until it hardens, which usually takes only a few minutes.
sases which are not good heat conductors may be heated from above or in a sto~e, after the drawing has been applied, the temperature used being governed by the softening or setting temperature of the synthetic resin, usually between 50 and 300C. The images may therefore also be fixed on a hot-plate or in a domestic oven, or the like.
As may be gathered from the foregoing, the drawing and painting stick according to the invention allows the user to produce designs or drawing$ as if he were using conventio-nal chalks, and then to ~ix them permanently, very ~uickly and simply, like enamels, so that they adhere firmly and are impact-resistant. Images produced with the sticks according to the invention are resistant, after they have been fired, to weathering and are largely resistant to attack by chemicals and solvents. Moreover, the surface of the image has consi-derable mechanical strength. All of these advantageous proper-ties make it possible ko display the images or the like, pro-duced rapidly and simply with the sticks according to the invention, in highly exposed locations.
