- a support substrate which is black or colored on at least one side, in particular paper, synthetic paper and / or a plastic film which is coated on this black or colored side with an opaque material.
- the black or colored carrier substrate appears white toward the outside.
- heat is applied, such as local heat through a thermal printer, the opaque coating loses its opacity at these points and becomes transparent so that the black or colored carrier substrate becomes visible.
- EP 2 345 678 A1 discloses a heat-sensitive recording material comprising a coating of nanoparticles comprising a shell and a core each have different polymers with different Glasübergangstempe- temperatures.
- thermosensitive recording material comprising a coating containing an opaque polymer, for example a styrene / acrylate copolymer.
- the heat-sensitive recording materials known from the prior art have the disadvantage that the structure of the heat-sensitive layer is often quite complex. For example, nanoparticles composed of different layers of different polymers must be provided, which are complex to produce and therefore often expensive. In addition, many of the polymers used are questionable in terms of their sustainability and toxicity. Many heat-sensitive recording materials known from the prior art can also be improved with regard to the sharpness and the contrast of the printed image. In addition, many known thermosensitive recording materials have inadequate storage stability.
- the object of the present invention is to overcome the above-mentioned disadvantages of the prior art.
- the object of the present invention is to provide a thermosensitive recording material comprising a thermoresponsive layer which is composed of, for example, sustainable, i. as natural and / or renewable raw materials, constructed, and on the other hand, the lowest possible to no toxicity.
- the material of the thermoresponsive layer should be able to be provided as simply and easily as possible.
- the heat-sensitive recording material should enable a sharp and high-contrast print image and, moreover, should not be impaired even with a longer storage time.
- the heat-sensitive recording material should be produced by a simple and inexpensive method.
- the melting point of the substances used in the thermoresponsive layer should preferably be above 90.degree. C., so that the process temperatures of up to 90.degree. C. which are customary in the preparation do not have a negative influence on the product.
- thermoresponsive layer on the at least one black or colored side of the carrier substrate, wherein the thermoresponsive layer comprises nanoparticles of at least one cellulose ester.
- thermosensitive recording material has the advantage that the thermoresponsive layer contains nanoparticles of modified cellulose, i. of at least one cellulose ester, since the cellulose ester is non-toxic and therefore substantially harmless to health. In addition, this cellulose ester is obtainable relatively cheaply in large quantities.
- the cellulose ester also has high opacity and, for thermal printing applications, a favorable melting point and glass transition temperature.
- a heat-sensitive recording material comprising a thermoresponsive layer comprising nanoparticles of at least one cellulose ester is relatively easy and cost-effective to produce. In addition, it has a high storage stability and an excellent print image.
- the cellulose ester has a relatively high melting point, so that the usual in the preparation of the heat-sensitive recording material process temperatures of up to 90 ° C can be tolerated.
- the support substrate of the heat-sensitive recording material of the present invention comprises at least one black or colored side.
- colored side is understood to mean that the side has a color other than white or black, in other words, the heat-sensitive recording material comprises at least one side that is not white the at least one black or colored page has several different colors, also in combination with the color black.
- thermoresponsive layer comprising nanoparticles of at least one cellulose ester, is applied on this at least one non-white but colored or black side of the carrier substrate.
- thermoresponsive layer comprising the nanoparticles of at least one cellulose ester is preferably substantially white.
- Nanoparticles of cellulose esters and methods of preparation are generally known to me.
- the alcohol groups of cellulose are first esterified.
- esterifications of cellulose are preferably carried out using the respective acid anhydrides and a catalyst, typically sulfuric acid.
- a catalyst typically sulfuric acid.
- the cell is initially suspended in the reaction mixture, but as the acetylation proceeds, the cellulose becomes increasingly soluble in the glacial acetic acid, which causes the homogenization of the reaction mixture.
- the viscosity of the solution varies and provides information about the degree of substitution (DS).
- the increasing solution of the polymer chains leads to an increase in the viscosity, which later decreases again due to degradation reactions on the cellulose backbone and thus the reduction of the chain length.
- the DS and chain length can be controlled on-line by observing the viscosity.
- cellulose esters are cellulose acetate propionate, cellulose butyrate and cellulose acetate butyrate, which are prepared analogously to the method described above, preferably using the respective acid anhydrides.
- the procedure is preferably as follows.
- a solvent for. As dissolved THF, acetone, etc., so that the concentration of the cellulose ester is about 1 to 10 mg / mL.
- This solution is then dissolved in a non-solvent, e.g. As a mixture of isopropanol and distilled water, like. Either the dissolved cellulose ester may be added to the non-solvent or, conversely, the non-solvent may be added to the solution of the cellulose ester.
- the resulting suspension is typically stirred for 12 to 24 hours to allow solvent exchange between the still-swollen particles and the precipitating agent.
- the particles sedimented into the lower quarter of the precipitation mixture and about 4/5 of the solvent mixture is separated.
- the resulting suspension is centrifuged and the resulting particulate sludge is rinsed to water, and then introduced into coating formulations.
- Typical yields are between 70 and 80%.
- the heat-sensitive recording material according to the invention is preferably characterized in that the nanoparticles of the at least one cell osmotic ester number-average particle sizes of 50 to 400 nm, preferably from 160-200 nm (+/- 40 nm), measured by dynamic light scattering (or " dynamic light scattering (DLS) is a technique used to analyze the scattered light of a laser on a dissolved or suspended sample, which is commonly used in polymers and biopolymers
- DLS dynamic light scattering
- the number-average particle size was determined in detail as follows: A "Nanophox" from Heribler Sympatec was used. This particle size analyzer uses photon cross-correlation spectroscopy (a statistical analysis method based on DLS) to determine particle sizes and distributions.
- the temperature during the measurement is kept constant with a thermostat, typically at 20 ° C. Distilled water is usually used as the fluid medium.
- a large number of scatter events are detected (typically set at 300,000 per second over several minutes).
- the measured values thus obtained provide information about the Brownian molecular motion of the particles and their diffusion coefficient.
- thermoresponsive layer has a transparency, measured according to DIN 53147: 1993-01, of less than 35%, preferably less than 30%, particularly preferably less than 25% and most preferably less than 20%, in particular less than 15% or even less than 10%.
- Transparency is the ability of matter to transmit electromagnetic waves (transmission).
- Opacity denotes the opposite of transparency, ie lack of transparency or lack of permeability.
- the opacity is the reciprocal of the transmission.
- the low transparency preferred according to the invention has the advantage that the black or colored side of the carrier substrate is substantially completely covered and appears at least substantially white to the outside.
- the heat-sensitive recording material according to the invention is preferably characterized in that the at least one cellulose ester comprises cellulose acetate, cellulose acetate propionate, cellulose butyrate and / or cellulose acetate butylate, preferably cellulose acetate butyrate.

- This method is particularly advantageous from an economic point of view.
- the value of the solids content of about 15 wt .-% is exceeded, then the economy deteriorates because a large amount of water from the Coating must be removed by gentle drying in a short time, which adversely affects the coating speed. If, on the other hand, the value exceeds 60% by weight, then this only leads to an increased technical outlay in order to ensure the stability of the coating curtain during the coating process.
- the heat-sensitive recording material according to the invention by means of a process in which the aqueous coating suspension is applied by the curtain coating coating method, preferably at an operating speed of the coating unit of at least about 400 m / min.
- the so-called curtain-coating method is known to the person skilled in the art and is characterized by the following criteria:
- a free-falling curtain of a coating dispersion is formed.
- the coating dispersion in the form of a thin film is "poured" onto a substrate to apply the coating dispersion to the substrate
- DE 10196052 TI discloses the use of the curtain coating process in the manufacture of information recording materials, including heat-sensitive recording materials.
- the setting of the operating speed of the coater to at least about 400 m / min has both economic and technical advantages.
- the operating speed is particularly preferably at least about 750 m / min, very particularly preferably at least about 1000 m / min and very particularly preferably at least about 1500 m / min. It was particularly surprising that even at the latter speed, the resulting heat-sensitive recording material is in no way impaired and that the operation is carried out optimally even at this high speed.
- the aqueous deaerated application suspension has a viscosity of about 150 to about 800 mPas (Brookfield, 100 rpm, 20 ° C). If the value falls below about 150 mPas or exceeds the value of about 800 mPas, then this leads to a poor runnability of the coating on the coating unit. More preferably, the viscosity of the aqueous deaerated coating suspension is about 200 to about 500 mPas.
- the surface tension of the aqueous application suspension can be from 25 to 60 mN / m, preferably from about 35 to about 50 mN / m (measured according to the static ring method according to Du Noüy, DIN 53914, 1997-07 ).
- the dried thermoresponsive layer is subjected to a smoothing action. It is advantageous here to adjust the Bekk smoothness, measured to DIN 53107 (2000), to about 100 to about 1200 seconds, preferably to about 300 to about 700 seconds. Bekk smoothing of 100 to 300 sec are measured according to method A of DIN 53107 (2000) and Bekk smoothing of over 300 according to method B of DIN 53107 (2000).
- the present invention also relates to a heat-sensitive recording material obtainable by the above method.
- FIG. 1 shows light microscope photographs of a printed heat-sensitive recording material according to the invention.
- Figure 2 shows an illustration of the opacities. These are the gray values of a horizontal line.
- the laser power was 70%.
- the gray value is a value between 0 and 255, with 255 reflecting a completely black pixel and 0 a completely white pixel.
- An aqueous coating suspension was prepared by mixing 100 parts of cellulose acetate butyrate nanoparticles having a mean particle diameter of about 170 nm ( ⁇ 40 nm) in the presence of 0.1% polyvinyl alcohol, THF as a solvent, and a water / isopropanol mixture in the ratio of 1.2 to 2.8 as non-solvent as described above, mixed with 40 parts of polyvinyl alcohol, 5 parts of Styronal D 517 as binder, 15 parts of Sterocoll as a viscosity regulator and 3 parts of NaOH.
- the coating formulation a ratio of 11.75% by weight of solids / liquid was selected. This value was chosen because the particles are present after production as ⁇ 15% by weight suspension.
- the solids contents of the additives and coatings were determined using a dry balance.
- the polyvinyl alcohol used is 84% saponified polyvinyl acetate (Mn 100,000 g / mol).
- the sample containers were filled with 100 mg of cellulose acetate butyrate nanoparticles, the respective additives added, and the solids content (FG) adjusted to 11.75 wt% with distilled water. The formulation is then homogenized by Vortex shaker and ultrasonic bath.
- thermoresponsive layer was 2.5 4 and 6 g / m 2 .
- the coated substrates were cut in half with scissors.
- One half of a substrate was tempered for 30 minutes in a drying oven at 70 ° C. in order to simulate simple drying conditions.
- both samples were "printed” with a 30-watt CO 2 laser (parameter in Tab. 1). In each case 10 different amounts of energy (0.43 - 4.3 mJ / mm 2 ) were deposited and with every amount of energy 12 lines were written into the coating ("printed").
- the evaluation was done with the open source image analysis program Image! The brightness has been set so that the brightest areas are not actually using the sensor. Based on the Gau values, relative opacities between the melted and non-treated sites could be calculated.
- the paper strips of formulation 1 showed promising results, which are shown in FIG.
- the patterns are macroscopically very homogeneous. With a laser power of 70%, sharp line profiles were already recognizable. Increasing the laser power to 80% reduces the distance between the individual lines.
- FIG. 2 serves to illustrate the opacities. These are the gray values of a horizontal line. The relative opacity reached maximum values of up to 95% for PVA coatings. The thermal treatment showed no negative influence.
