Definitions

  • This invention relates to printing paper, and in particular to such paper for hard copy sublimation transfer, which may be used for making a hard copy of an image picked up by a video camera or a television picture image by thermal transfer of sublimable dyes.
  • FIG. 1 of the accompanying drawings there is shown a printer for obtaining a hard copy by thermal transfer printing.
  • the printer has a platen 2 around which printing paper 1 is wound and which is rotated in the direction of an arrow a, and a heating head 4 arranged to press a dye carrier ribbon 3 against the platen 2 and the printing paper 1.
  • a heating head 4 arranged to press a dye carrier ribbon 3 against the platen 2 and the printing paper 1.
  • heating elements 4a At the tip of the heating head 4 are arranged heating elements 4a corresponding to the number of required picture elements, which in turn correspond to the number of elements in one scanning line of, for example, a television picture image.
  • the dye carrier ribbon 3 sandwiched under pressure between the heating head 4 and the printing paper 1 has a sheet substrate 9 on which there are formed colorant layers in a form corresponding, for example, to the frame of a television picture image, and which each contain a respective one of four sublimable dyes which are yellow, magenta, cyan and black in colour.
  • the respective colorant layers including yellow Y, magenta M, cyan C and black 8 are successively formed on the sheet substrate 9 in a repeating fashion.
  • detection marks 5 (5Y, 5M, 5C and 5B for each of the respective colorant layers) from which the position of each colorant layer is detected, are provided along one side edge of the substrate 9 as shown.
  • a block position-detecting mark 6 is provided along the other side edge of the substrate 9.
  • the sublimable yellow dye in the dye portion Y is thermally transferred to the printing paper according to the heating pattern.
  • bisphenol units is intended to mean those units having the following structural formulae:
  • the resin having bisphenol units is used in amounts not less than 70 wt% of the total amount of the resin in the resin layer or the uppermost resin layer. If the amounts are less than 70 wt%, the dyeing property of a sublimable dye and the storage stability are unfavourably degraded.
  • the (uppermost) resin layer may further contain, apart from the resin having bisphenol units, up to 30 wt% of other types of resin such as polyesters, epoxy resins, nylon or cellulose acetate resins. In this case, the resin layer should be arranged to have a glass transition temperature Tg of not lower than 55°C.
  • the (uppermost) resin layer may further comprise fillers (for example Si0 2 , TiO 2 , CaC0 3 or the like), ultra-violet (UV) absorbers, antioxidants, fluorescent brighteners, surface active agents and the like.
  • fillers for example Si0 2 , TiO 2 , CaC0 3 or the like
  • UV absorbers for example, UV absorbers, antioxidants, fluorescent brighteners, surface active agents and the like.
  • the dye accepting layer 12 is formed of a multilayered structure, for example a double-layered structure as shown in Figure 3, a dye accepting layer 12b of a polyester resin is first formed on the substrate 11, on which a dye accepting resin layer 12a mainly composed of a resin having bisphenol units and having a glass transition temperature not lower than 55 0 C is further formed.
  • the upper dye accepting resin layer 12a may have a thickness of 0.5 - 5.0 ⁇ m.
  • a resin having bisphenol units has a high absorptivity for sublimable dyes and exhibits good storage stability of picture images formed thereon when the temperature is maintained at or lower than its glass transition point Tg.
  • the main component of the (uppermost) dye accepting layer should be a resin having bisphenol units and the layer should have a glass transition point Tg not lower than 55°C, so that stable storage is ensured even under high temperature and higher humidity conditions than in an ordinary state. Accordingly, although, for example, a polyester resin may be mixed with the resin having bisphenol units in order to increase the colour concentration, the resultant resin layer should have a glass transition point Tg not lower than 55°C.
  • Phenoate YP-50 (Trade name of Toto Kasei Co., Ltd., phenoxy resin, Tg 100°C) was dissolved in a solvent and applied onto art paper used as a substrate 11 in a dry thickness of 10 ⁇ m, thereby obtaining printing paper 13 for printing hard copies by thermal transfer of sublimation dye, the printing paper 13 being composed of the substrate 11 and a dye accepting layer 12 as shown in Figure 2.
  • Panlite L1225 (Trade name of Teijin Ltd., polycarbonate resin, Tg 145 0 C) was dissolved in a solvent and applied onto art paper used as a substrate 11 in a dry thickness of 10 ⁇ m, to obtain printing paper 13 composed of the substrate 11 and a dye accepting layer 12 as shown in Figure 2.
  • a resin layer was formed in the same manner as in Example 1 using U-100 (Trade name of Unitika Ltd., polyarylate resin, Tg 190 C), thereby making printing paper 13 which was composed of a dye accepting layer 12 and a substrate 11.
  • a resin layer was formed in the same manner as in Example 1 using Epototo YD-017 (Trade name of Toto Kasei Co., Ltd., epoxy resin, Tg 77°C), thereby making printing paper 13 composed of a dye accepting layer 12 and a substrate 11.
  • Epototo YD-017 (Trade name of Toto Kasei Co., Ltd., epoxy resin, Tg 77°C)
  • a resin layer was formed in the same manner as in Example 1 using a mixed resin (Tg 57°C) of 7 parts by weight of Epototo YD-012 (Tg 65°C) and 3 parts by weight of UE-3300 (Trade designation of Unitika Ltd., polyester resin, Tg 50°C), thereby making printing paper 13 composed of a dye accepting layer 12 and a substrate 11.
  • a mixed resin Tg 57°C
  • Epototo YD-012 Tg 65°C
  • UE-3300 Trade designation of Unitika Ltd., polyester resin, Tg 50°C
  • a resin layer was formed in the same manner as in Comparative Example 1 using XA5535 (made by Unitika Ltd., polyester, Tg 105°C), thereby obtaining printing paper which was composed of a dye accepting layer and a substrate.
  • a resin layer was formed in the same manner as in Comparative Example 1 using a mixed resin (Tg 53°C) of 7 parts by weight of Epototo TD-012 (Trade name of Toto Kasei Co., Ltd., bisphenol A-type epoxy resin, Tg 60°C) and 3 parts by weight of TP-219 (Trade designation of Nippon Synthetic Chem. Ind. Co., Ltd., polyester resin, Tg 40 C), thereby obtaining printing paper composed of a dye accepting layer and a substrate.
  • a mixed resin Tg 53°C
  • Epototo TD-012 Trade name of Toto Kasei Co., Ltd., bisphenol A-type epoxy resin, Tg 60°C
  • TP-219 Trade designation of Nippon Synthetic Chem. Ind. Co., Ltd., polyester resin, Tg 40 C
  • the (uppermost) dye accepting layer is a resin layer mainly composed of a resin having bisphenol units and having a glass transition point Tg not lower than 55°C. Accordingly, the dyeing property of the dye accepting layer is enhanced, so that an image of a higher quality can be obtained, which has good stability even under high temperature and higher humidity conditions than is the case under ordinary storage conditions.
  • This does not require an additional specific type of surface protective film, such as a laminate film, as has been necessary with the previously-proposed types of printing paper.
