Abstract

Stable highly-concentrated solutions of colour formers in alkylaromatic hydrocarbons may be manufactured by dissolving the colour former or the mixture of colour formers to the desired concentration in the alkylaromatic hydrocarbon at a temperature in the range between 65 DEG C and the boiling point of the alkylaromatic hydrocarbon or, if it is lower, the decomposition temperature of the colour former, and cooling the solution to ambient temperature.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft Lösungen von Farbbildnern in alkylaromatischen Kohlenwasserstoffen.
Entsprechende Lösungen mit einem Gehalt an Farbbildnern von 3 - 8 % werden bei der Herstellung von druckempfindlichen Aufzeichnungsmaterialien verwendet.
The invention relates to solutions of color formers in alkyl aromatic hydrocarbons.
Appropriate solutions with a color former content of 3 - 8% are used in the production of pressure-sensitive recording materials.

Aus transport- und produktionstechnischen Gründen besteht ein Bedarf an entsprechenden Konzentraten mit möglichst hohem Gehalt an Farbbildnern. Dies scheiterte jedoch bislang daran, daß bei den meisten Farbbildnern die Löslichkeitsgrenze bei etwa 2 - 10 Gew.-% Farbbildnern erreicht ist.
Aus DE-A-36 05 552 ist ein Verfahren bekannt, hochkonzentrierte Lösungen von Farbbildnern auf Triphenylmethanbasis in verschiedenen unterschiedlichen Lösemitteln herzustellen, indem die Farbbildner nach ihrer Herstellung in wäßrigem Milieu in das wasserunlösliche Lösemittel eingebracht werden. Dabei lassen sich hochkonzentrierte Lösungen mit einem Gehalt von 10 - 50 Gew.-% bevorzugt 10 - 35 Gew.-% an Farbbildnern herstellen.
Die entsprechenden Lösungen sind einerseits auf Farbbildner auf Basis von Triphenylmethanderivaten und auf die Lösung von jeweils nur einem Farbbildner beschränkt. Andererseits ist das Verfahren an die Herstellung des Farbbildners gekoppelt, d. h., die Herstellung der Lösungen ist für ein Unternehmen, das die fertigen, trocknen Farbbildner bezieht, nicht möglich. Zudem ist das Verfahren aufwendig, da zumindest Restwasser, oft aber auch noch zusätzliche Hilfslösungsmittel aus der Farbbildnerlösung entfernt werden müssen.
For transport and production reasons, there is a need for corresponding concentrates with the highest possible color former content. However, this has so far failed because most color formers have reached the solubility limit of about 2 to 10% by weight color formers.
From DE-A-36 05 552 a method is known for using highly concentrated solutions of color formers To produce triphenylmethane base in various different solvents by introducing the color formers into water-insoluble solvents after their preparation in an aqueous medium. Highly concentrated solutions with a content of 10-50% by weight, preferably 10-35% by weight, of color formers can be produced.
The corresponding solutions are limited on the one hand to color formers based on triphenylmethane derivatives and to the solution of only one color former. On the other hand, the process is linked to the production of the color former, ie the production of the solutions is not possible for a company that purchases the finished, dry color former. In addition, the process is complex since at least residual water, but often also additional auxiliary solvents, have to be removed from the color former solution.

Es ist daher Aufgabe der Erfindung, Lösungen von gegebenenfalls mehreren Farbbildnern in alkylaromatischen Kohlenwasserstoffen bereitzustellen, die auch mehr als 50 % Farbbildner enthalten können, die nicht auf nur eine Gruppe von Farbbildnern beschränkt sind und die in einfacher Weise auch mit trockenen, als Handelsware bezogenen, Farbbildnern hergestellt werden können, ohne daß weitere Hilfslösemittel oder Wasser zusätzlich verwendet und abgetrennt werden müssen.It is therefore an object of the invention to provide solutions of optionally a plurality of color formers in alkylaromatic hydrocarbons which may also contain more than 50% of color formers, which are not limited to only one group of color formers and which can also be obtained in a simple manner with dry, commercially available products, Color formers can be produced without additional auxiliary solvents or water having to be used and separated.

Die Lösung der Aufgabe erfolgt durch Bereitstellen von Lösungen von Farbbildnern gemäß der Ansprüche 1 bis 4 und durch ein Verfahren zu ihrer Herstellung gemäß der Ansprüche 5 bis 7. Die erfindungsgemäßen Lösungen sind Konzentrate und werden zur Herstellung von druckempfindlichen Aufzeichnungsmaterialien verwendet.The problem is solved by providing solutions of color formers according to claims 1 to 4 and by a process for their preparation according to claims 5 to 7. The solutions according to the invention are concentrates and are used for the production of pressure-sensitive recording materials.

Es ist bekannt, daß sich die meisten Stoffe umso besser in einem Lösemittel lösen, je höher dessen Temperatur ist. Beim Abkühlen dieser, bei höherer Temperatur hergestellten Lösungen, kristallisiert der gelöste Stoff aus, bis das jeweilige Lösungsgleichgewicht erreicht ist. Entsprechendes gilt auch für Lösungen von Farbbildnern in alkylaromatischen Kohlewasserstoffen: Stellt man z. B. 20 %ige Lösungen der Farbbildner her, indem diese bei 100 °C in alkylaromatischen Kohlenwasserstoffen gelöst werden, so bilden sich beim Abkühlen gesättigte Lösungen. Die über den Sättigungsgrad liegende Menge an eingebrachtem Farbbildner kristallisiert aus. Bei handelsüblichen Farbbildnern liegt der Sättigungsgrad in alkylaromatischen Kohlenwasserstoffen bei Raumtemperatur bei etwa 2 - 10 Gew.-%, bezogen auf die Lösung.
Überraschenderweise aber tritt dieser Effekt nicht mehr auf, wenn in den alkylaromatischen Kohlenwasserstoffen mehr als 40 Gew.-%, bezogen auf die Lösung, Farbbildner gelöst werden. Beim Abkühlen derartiger hochübersättigter Lösungen kristallisieren keine Farbbildner aus. Es verbleibt vielmehr eine homogene, hochviskose Lösung, die bei Raumtemperatur mehrere Wochen stabil bleibt. Die Lösung kann durch Hinzufügen entsprechenden weiteren Lösemittels auf einen Gehalt von 3 - 10 Gew.-% verdünnt werden. Sie kann somit als Konzentrat eines Farbbildners dienen.
It is known that most substances dissolve in a solvent the better its temperature. When these solutions, which are produced at a higher temperature, cool down, the solute crystallizes out until the respective solution equilibrium is reached. The same applies to solutions of color formers in alkyl aromatic hydrocarbons. B. 20% solutions of the color formers ago by dissolving them at 100 ° C in alkyl aromatic hydrocarbons, so saturated solutions are formed on cooling. The amount of color former introduced, which is above the degree of saturation, crystallizes out. In the case of commercially available color formers, the degree of saturation in alkylaromatic hydrocarbons at room temperature is approximately 2-10% by weight, based on the solution.
Surprisingly, however, this effect no longer occurs if more than 40% by weight, based on the solution, of color formers are dissolved in the alkylaromatic hydrocarbons. When such highly supersaturated solutions cool, no color formers crystallize out. Rather, what remains is a homogeneous, highly viscous solution that remains stable for several weeks at room temperature. The solution can be diluted to a content of 3 to 10% by weight by adding appropriate further solvent. It can thus be used as a concentrate for a color former.

Alkylaromatische Kohlenwasserstoffe sind aromatische Verbindungen, die Alkylgruppen mit vorzugsweise 1 - 18 Kohlenstoffatomen enthalten, wie Alkylbiphenyle, insbesondere iso-Propyl-biphenyl, tert.-Butylbiphenyl, Dialkyl-biphenyl, insbesondere Di-isopropylbiphenyl und Di-tert.-butyl-biphenyl, Alkylbenzole, hydrierte und teilhydrierte Terphenyle, insbesondere Cyclohexyldiphenyl und Alkylnaphthaline wie Mono-, Di- und Trialkylnaphthaline mit Alkylgruppen die 1 bis 4 C-Atome enthalten können.
Die bevorzugten alkylaromatischen Kohlewasserstoffe sind Dialkylnaphthaline, wobei die Alkylketten gleich oder verschieden sind und jeweils 1 bis 4 C-Atome enthalten können.
Beispiele hierfür sind Dimethyl-, Diethyl-, Diisopropyl, Di-tert.-butyl-, Methyl-ethyl-, Methyl-propyl, Methyl-isopropyl-, Methyl-butyl-, Methyl-tert.-butyl- oder Isopropyl-tert.-butylnaphthaline, wobei die Position der Alkylgruppen am Naphthalinring beliebig ist. Aus technischen und wirtschaftlichen Gründen bevorzugt sind Gemische verschiedener Alkylnaphthaline sowie Gemische von an verschiedenen Stellen substituierten Naphthalinen (Isomerengemisch).
Alkyl aromatic hydrocarbons are aromatic compounds which contain alkyl groups with preferably 1-18 carbon atoms, such as alkyl biphenyls, in particular iso-propyl-biphenyl, tert-butylbiphenyl, dialkyl-biphenyl, in particular di-isopropylbiphenyl and di-tert-butyl-biphenyl, alkylbenzenes , hydrogenated and partially hydrogenated terphenyls, especially cyclohexyldiphenyl and alkylnaphthalenes such as mono-, di- and trialkylnaphthalenes with alkyl groups which can contain 1 to 4 carbon atoms.
The preferred alkyl aromatic hydrocarbons are dialkylnaphthalenes, where the alkyl chains are the same or different and can each contain 1 to 4 carbon atoms.
Examples include dimethyl, diethyl, diisopropyl, di-tert-butyl, methyl-ethyl, methyl-propyl, methyl-isopropyl, methyl-butyl, methyl-tert-butyl or isopropyl-tert. -butylnaphthalenes, the position of the alkyl groups on the naphthalene ring being arbitrary. Mixtures of different alkylnaphthalenes and mixtures of naphthalenes substituted at different positions (mixture of isomers) are preferred for technical and economic reasons.

Erfindungsgemäß verwendbare Farbbildner sind die in druckempfindlichen Aufzeichnungsmaterialien üblicherweise eingesetzten Farbbildner der verschiedenen Gruppen wie z. B. 3,3-Bis-(aminophenyl)-phthalide, 3,3-Bis-(indolyl)-phthalide, 3-Amino-fluorane, Spirodipyrane, Chromenoindole, Phenoxazine, Carbazolyl-methane, oder Triarylmethane. Diese Farbbildner können einzeln oder im Gemisch mit einem oder mehreren, auch der verschiedenen Gruppen in den erfindungsgemäßen Lösungen enthalten sein. Gerade die Gemische von Farbbildnern spielen eine große Rolle, um gezielte Farben und Farbtönungen zu erzielen. Obwohl sich generell alle diese Farbbildner in allen erfindungsgemäßen alkylaromatischen Kohlenwasserstoffen lösen, sind nicht alle Farbbildner in ihrem Löseverhalten gleich. Es unterscheidet sich je nach Aromatizitätsgrad des Farbbildners. Da sich aber auch die alkylaromatischen Kohlenwasserstoffe in ihrem Aromatizitätsgrad unterscheiden, besteht für den Fachmann die Möglichkeit, die eingesetzten Farbbildner und Lösemittel entsprechend ihrem Aromatizitätsgrad aufeinander abzustimmen, d. h. er kann z. B. bei Verwendung von Farbbildnern mit einem Anteil an langkettigen aliphatischen Gruppen als alkylaromatische Kohlenwasserstoffe solche bevorzugt einsetzen, die einen Anteil an langkettigen aliphatischen Substituenten haben, um eine möglichst gute Löslichkeit zu erzielen. Hierzu kann es auch zweckmäßig sein, ein Gemisch verschiedener alkylaromatischer Kohlenwasserstoffe einzusetzen.
Die Herstellung von hochkonzentrierten Lösungen von Farbbildnern in alkylaromatischen Lösemitteln, die auch die beanspruchten Lösungen umfassen, aber nicht auf sie beschränkt sind, erfolgt dadurch, daß die Farbbildner in der gewünschten Konzentration, die im Bereich von 40 bis 75 % liegen kann, in an sich bekannter Weise bei erhöhter Temperatur, in den alkylaromatischen Kohlenwasserstoffen gelöst, und diese Lösungen auf Umgebungstemperatur abgekühlt werden. Dieser Lösevorgang erfolgt bei einer Temperatur im Bereich von 65 °C bis zur Siedetemperatur des Lösemittels. Ist allerdings der Zersetztungspunkt des Farbbildners niedriger als der Siedepunkt des Lösemittels so bildet die Zersetztungtemperatur den oberen Grenzwert. Im allgemeinen erfolgt der Lösevorgang bei einer Temperatur im Bereich von 65 - 160 °C, bevorzugt im Bereich von 80 - 120 °C.
Erhalten werden hochviskose Lösungen aus denen auch bei mehrwöchiger Lagerung sowie auch beim Abkühlen auf Temperaturen bis zu - 10 °C keine Farbbildner auskristallisieren. Andererseits können diese hochkonzentrierten Lösungen durch Vermischen mit entsprechenden Mengen an alkylaromatischen Kohlenwasserstoffen bei Raumtemperatur, bevorzugt aber bei leicht erhöhter Temperatur bis etwa 50 °C auf eine Konzentration von 3 - 10 % verdünnt werden. Diese Lösungen werden als Farbbildnerlösungen mikroverkapselt in druckempfindlichen Durchschreibepapieren eingesetzt.
Color formers which can be used according to the invention are the color formers of the various groups which are usually used in pressure-sensitive recording materials, such as, for. B. 3,3-bis (aminophenyl) phthalide, 3,3-bis (indolyl) phthalide, 3-amino-fluorane, Spirodipyrans, chromenoindoles, phenoxazines, carbazolyl methanes, or triaryl methanes. These color formers can be contained individually or in a mixture with one or more, including the various groups, in the solutions according to the invention. The mixtures of color formers in particular play a major role in achieving targeted colors and tints. Although in general all of these color formers dissolve in all alkyl aromatic hydrocarbons according to the invention, not all color formers are identical in their dissolving behavior. It differs depending on the degree of aromaticity of the color former. However, since the alkyl aromatic hydrocarbons also differ in their degree of aromaticity, the person skilled in the art has the possibility of coordinating the color formers and solvents used with one another in accordance with their degree of aromaticity, ie he can e.g. B. when using color formers with a proportion of long-chain aliphatic groups as alkyl aromatic hydrocarbons preferably use those which have a proportion of long-chain aliphatic substituents in order to achieve the best possible solubility. For this purpose it can also be expedient to use a mixture of different alkyl aromatic hydrocarbons.
The preparation of highly concentrated solutions of color formers in alkyl aromatic solvents, which also include, but are not limited to, the claimed solutions, is carried out in that the color formers in themselves in the desired concentration, which can be in the range from 40 to 75% known manner at elevated temperature, in the alkyl aromatic Dissolved hydrocarbons, and these solutions are cooled to ambient temperature. This dissolving process takes place at a temperature in the range from 65 ° C. to the boiling point of the solvent. However, if the decomposition point of the color former is lower than the boiling point of the solvent, the decomposition temperature forms the upper limit. In general, the dissolving process takes place at a temperature in the range from 65 to 160 ° C., preferably in the range from 80 to 120 ° C.
Highly viscous solutions are obtained, from which no color formers crystallize, even when stored for several weeks or when cooled to temperatures down to -10 ° C. On the other hand, these highly concentrated solutions can be diluted to a concentration of 3 to 10% by mixing with appropriate amounts of alkyl aromatic hydrocarbons at room temperature, but preferably at a slightly elevated temperature up to about 50 ° C. These solutions are used as color former solutions, microencapsulated in pressure-sensitive carbonless papers.
