Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は電子写真、電子印刷、静電記録、インクジェット記録及び熱転写記録等の画像記録における記録剤あるいはその製造に使用される顔料と樹脂バインダーを含む画像記録用着色組成物及びその製造方法に関する。更に詳しくは、顔料として各種堅牢性及び微細な粒子径を有するジメチルキナクリドン顔料及び少なくとも一種の特定の赤色顔料を含有する負帯電特性が付与された鮮明なマゼンタ色の画像記録用着色組成物及びその製造方法に関するものである。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
従来、フルカラー又はモノカラーの電子写真、電子印刷、静電印刷、インクジェット記録及び熱転写記録等の画像記録に用いられるマゼンタ色記録剤においては、赤色顔料として赤色の油溶性染料、分散性染料、チオインジゴ系顔料、溶性アゾレーキ系顔料、不溶性アゾ系顔料、ジメチルキナクリドン顔料等が使用されている。
【0003】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
上記したマゼンタ色画像記録剤に使用される赤色顔料の中では、マゼンタ色顔料として著名なジメチルキナクリドン(2,9−ジメチルキナクリドン)顔料(C.I.ピグメントレッド 122)が使用されていることが多い。
この顔料は単独ではマゼンタ色として青みが強過ぎ、着色濃度が不十分であるだけでなく、顔料の摩擦帯電が正帯電で、しかもかなり大きい値を示すという欠点がある。そのために、該顔料を負帯電性マゼンタ記録剤に使用すると、地汚れが発生し易い問題がある。
【0004】
しかしながら、マゼンタ色画像記録剤に使用される赤色色素についてみると、油溶性染料、分散性染料等は樹脂媒体に溶解的に着色できるため着色力が高いが、耐光性、耐熱性、耐溶剤性、耐薬品性等の諸堅牢性に劣るという欠点がある。又、チオインジゴ系顔料、溶性アゾレーキ系顔料、不溶性アゾ系顔料も染料類より優れているが、耐光性、耐熱性等の諸堅牢性、鮮明性が不十分である。
従って、上記した如き染料や顔料は、諸堅牢性、鮮明性、透明性、負帯電性が要求される記録剤用のマゼンタ色用に使われる色素としては不十分であり、優れた物性を有する記録剤用のマゼンタ色に使用される顔料の開発が要望されている。
【0005】
本発明者らは、上記従来のマゼンタ色記録剤用色素の欠点を解消し、諸堅牢性、鮮明性、透明性、負帯電性を満足させ得る赤色顔料を開発すべく種々研究した結果、ジメチルキナクリドン顔料と特定の赤色顔料の少なくとも一種とを併用することにより、この用途に必要な諸堅牢性、鮮明性、透明性、負帯電性が付与された適切なマゼンタ色をもたらすことが出来ることを見出した。
更に、従来の塗料やプラスチック着色等の用途に使用されている顔料に比べ粒子径を小さくすることにより、色相の鮮明性、冴え、透明性等に優れた性質を発揮させることが出来、これを着色剤として使用することにより優れた画像記録用記録剤が得られることを見出し本発明を完成した。
【0006】
【課題を解決するための手段】
即ち、本発明は、顔料及び樹脂を含む、電子写真、乾式現像剤を用いる電子印刷、静電記録、インクジェット記録及び熱転写記録から選ばれる画像記録に用いられる画像記録用着色組成物において、上記顔料としてジメチルキナクリドン顔料(1)と少なくとも一種の負帯電性又は弱正帯電性の赤色顔料(但し、キナクリドン系顔料は除く)(2)とを併用することを特徴とする画像記録用着色組成物、その製造方法及び使用方法である。
【0007】
【発明の実施の形態】
以下に本発明を更に詳細に説明する。
本発明の画像記録用着色組成物は、その顔料成分としてジメチルキナクリドン顔料(1)と負帯電性又は弱正帯電性の赤色顔料(但し、キナクリドン系顔料は除く)(2)の少なくとも一種を併用することが特徴である。この赤色顔料(2)は、更に、諸堅牢性に優れ、高い着色力、鮮明性、冴え、透明性を有するものが好ましい。
上記顔料を用いることにより、顔料を高濃度で含有する画像記録用着色組成物の製造に際しても、加工温度を120℃以下で行う分散加工方法を採用すること等によって高濃度着色組成物を安定に製造することが出来る。又、本発明の画像記録用着色組成物を最終的に画像記録剤として使用する際には、優れた負帯電性を有し、鮮明で冴えて、透明感の高い、地汚れのない、諸堅牢性に優れた画像を長期間安定して記録することが出来る。これらの特徴は、画像記録剤が固体状及び液体状のいずれの場合においても発現される。
【0008】
本発明でジメチルキナクリドン顔料(1)とともに使用される赤色顔料(2)は、負帯電性もしくは弱い正帯電性の顔料であり、好ましくは、更に高い着色力、鮮明性を有する赤色顔料が使用される。好ましい赤色顔料は、ブローオフ粉体帯電量測定装置で測定した摩擦帯電量が−100〜+30μc/gのものであり、例えば以下に示す顔料が挙げられる。

本発明で使用し、主として本発明を特徴づけるジメチルキナクリドン顔料(1)と赤色顔料(2)とで調色顔料を調製し、それを使用して画像記録用着色組成物を製造する。これらの顔料は予め混合あるいは固溶体としたものであっても、あるいは画像記録用着色組成物を製造する工程中で混合されたものであってもよい。 画像記録用着色組成物の製造方法は特に限定されないが、例えば、顔料製造工程でジメチルキナクリドン顔料(1)と赤色顔料(2)を混合及び調色を行って得た微粉混合顔料、微粉固溶体顔料等を用いて直接画像記録剤に適した濃度で顔料を含む着色組成物を製造する方法と、該微粉混合顔料等を予めロールミル又は押出機等の加熱混練機を使用して、あるいは混合調色した顔料(1)及び顔料(2)の混合顔料のプレスケーキ等を加熱ニーダー等を使用して高濃度に顔料を含有する着色組成物を製造する方法があるが、いずれでも構わない。
又、上記の顔料を樹脂を構成する単量体混合物中に分散させ、単量体を重合させることによって形成された重合体(樹脂)中に該顔料を含有させる方法を用いることもできる。
【0010】
具体的な調色顔料及び該調色顔料を含む高濃度着色組成物の製造法の例として下記の如き方法が挙げられる。
(A)ジメチルキナクリドン顔料(1)と赤色顔料(2)、又はこれらの混合顔料を使用する高濃度着色組成物の製造法
(a)各々の顔料を単独で乾燥し、衝突粉砕又は磨砕された各微粉顔料の混合物と樹脂とを加熱混練機で混練して高濃度着色組成物を得る
(b)各々の顔料の水性プレスケーキを混合し、乾燥後、衝突粉砕又は磨砕された微粉混合顔料と樹脂とを加熱混練機で混練して高濃度着色組成物を得る
(c)顔料(1)及び(2)の水性プレスケーキ及び樹脂を加熱ニーダー等に仕込み、溶融フラッシング法等により高濃度着色組成物を製造する
(d)顔料(1)及び(2)の水性プレスケーキを予め混合し、これを用いて上記(c)と同様にして高濃度着色組成物を製造する
(e)顔料(1)及び顔料(2)の微粉、樹脂及び少量の水を加熱ニーダー等に仕込み、溶融フラッシング法等により高濃度着色組成物を製造する
(f)上記(a)又は(b)の微粉混合顔料、樹脂及び少量の水を加熱ニーダー等に仕込み、溶融フラッシング法等により高濃度着色組成物を製造する
【0011】
(B)ジメチルキナクリドン顔料(1)と赤色顔料(2)との固溶体顔料を用いる高濃度着色組成物の製造方法
(a)ジメチルキナクリドン顔料(1)と赤色顔料(2)との固溶体を乾燥し、衝突粉砕又は磨砕された微粉固溶体顔料と樹脂とを加熱混練機で混練して高濃度着色組成物を得る
(b)上記(a)の固溶体顔料の水性プレスケーキと樹脂を加熱ニーダー等に仕込み、溶融フラッシング法等により高濃度着色組成物を製造する
(c)(a)の微粉固溶体顔料、樹脂及び少量の水を加熱ニーダー等に仕込み、溶融フラッシング法等により高濃度着色組成物を製造する
【0012】
上記(B)において、ジメチルキナクリドン顔料(1)と赤色顔料(2)との固溶体顔料とは、これらの混合顔料を下記のような顔料化処理をすることにより固溶体の状態にしたものであり、固溶体とすることで色相の鮮明性、冴え、透明性、負帯電性を向上させることが出来る。
混合顔料を固溶体にする方法は、従来公知の方法を用いることが出来、特に制限されない。例えば、固溶体にする複数の顔料を配合し、酸ペースト処理ないし磨砕工程を経て固溶体粗結晶を得、これを有機溶剤等で処理することによって固溶体顔料が得られる。
【0013】
本発明で使用されるジメチルキナクリドン顔料(1)と赤色顔料(2)との調色顔料、即ち、両顔料の使用割合は、希望する画像の色相によって適宜決められるものであり、特に限定されないが、通常、該顔料(1)対該顔料(2)は99:1〜1:99(重量比)の範囲であり、好ましくは95:5〜30:70の範囲である。
【0014】
本発明の画像記録用組成物を使用して画像の色の透明性、冴え、鮮明性、負帯電性等の性質や物性をより優れたものとするために、本発明に使用するジメチルキナクリドン顔料(1)と赤色顔料(2)に、顔料の結晶を整えたり、顔料粒子の形状や粒子径を所望の範囲に整えたりする等の後処理を従来公知の方法に準じて施すことが出来る。
一般ににジメチルキナクリドン顔料や赤色顔料が塗料あるいはプラスチックなどの着色の用途に使用される場合には、顔料に隠蔽力、媒体への分散の容易さ、耐候性、耐加熱加工性等の性能を持たせるため顔料の平均粒子径は大きく、例えば、凡そ500〜700nmの大きさに調整されている。しかし、この粗大な顔料を画像記録剤の着色剤として使用した場合には、色相の透明性、冴え及び鮮明性を低下させるという問題がある。
【0015】
特に、フルカラー記録剤の着色剤として使用する場合には、色相の透明性、冴え、鮮明性を有していることが好ましい。
そのために、本発明で使用されるジメチルキナクリドン顔料(1)と赤色顔料(2)との調色顔料は、画像記録用着色組成物を製造するフラッシング、加熱混練あるいは湿式分散等の通常の分散方法で樹脂中に重量平均粒子径が200nm以下、好ましくは150nm以下になるように分散させることが好ましい。
従って、該組成物の製造に際しては、これらの顔料は上記の分散粒子径となるように予め微粒子化されたものを使用することが好ましい。
【0016】
顔料を微粒子化する方法は特に限定されず、従来公知の方法を用いることが出来る。例えば、顔料を酸ペースト処理する方法や、衝突粉砕や磨砕により微細化する方法等が挙げられる。衝突粉砕法にはボールミルや振動ミルを用いるドライミリング法があり、スチールボール、スチールロッド等の粉砕媒体が使用され、必要により、無機塩が磨砕助剤として使用される。磨砕法にはソルトミリング法やソルベントソルトミリング法があり、磨砕助剤として無水芒硝、塩化ナトリウム、硫酸アルミニウム等の無機塩が使用される。このようにして得られた微粒子顔料は色相の鮮明性、冴え、透明性を有し、又、耐光性、耐熱性、耐溶剤性、耐薬品性、耐水性等の諸堅牢性、負帯電性に優れた性質を示す。
【0017】
本発明の画像記録用着色組成物を製造するために使用される熱可塑性重合体樹脂やワックス類等の樹脂は、固体の形態で使用される該組成物にあっては分散媒体であり、液体の状態で使用される該組成物にあっては顔料の分散剤として機能するものである。又、実際に記録剤として使用されるときには顔料の固着剤として作用するものである。
このような目的で使用される樹脂としては、電子写真、静電印刷、静電記録等の乾式現像剤、油性及び水性インクジェットインク、熱転写インクリボン及びフィルム等の画像記録剤に従来から使用されている樹脂はいずれも使用することができ、特に限定されない。又、上記の各々の用途に合わせて、必要に応じて従来公知の添加剤、例えば、帯電制御剤、流動化剤、あるいは媒体として溶剤、水系媒体等を使用することが出来る。
【0018】
本発明の画像記録用着色組成物は、その使用目的の画像記録剤に適した顔料濃度となるように初めから製造されたものでも、高濃度に顔料を含む高濃度着色組成物として製造されたもののいずれでもよい。
高濃度着色組成物は、顔料を高濃度に含み、予め充分に練肉して顔料を分散させたり、調色を行っておくことにより、後の画像記録剤製造工程を容易にするためのものであり、粗粒、粗粉、微粉、シート状、小塊状等の固体状、ペースト状又は液状の任意の形態で使用される。該組成物中の顔料の含有量は、通常10〜70重量%程度であり、好ましくは20〜60重量%程度である。
【0019】
本発明の画像記録用着色組成物には、それぞれの使用目的に応じて従来から使用されている各種添加剤や溶剤等が添加され、目的の画像記録剤として使用される。画像記録剤としては、例えば、いわゆる微細粉体状乾式現像剤、静電記録剤、インクジェット記録用インキ、フィルム、紙等の基に塗布された熱転写インクリボン及びフィルム等が挙げられる。
【0020】
本発明の画像記録用着色組成物(使用目的の画像記録剤に適した濃度の顔料を含む)中の顔料の含有量は、該組成物の使用目的によって異なり、本発明で使用されるマゼンタ色に調色されたジメチルキナクリドン顔料(1)と赤色顔料(2)との調色顔料、樹脂やその他添加剤あるいは媒体を含む全着色組成物中における顔料の含有量は、通常2〜20重量%程度である。電子写真用乾式記録剤等として使用する場合には、顔料の含有量2〜15重量%程度、好ましくは3〜10重量%程度である。又、熱転写インクリボン、フイルムの着色剤として使用される場合には、4〜15重量%程度、好ましくは6〜10重量%程度であり、インクジェット記録用インクとして使用される場合には3〜20重量%程度、好ましくは5〜10重量%程度であり、各々使用する目的に応じて最も好ましい含有量で使用される。
【0021】
前記した顔料の高濃度着色組成物の製造方法としては、例えば、乾式の加熱混練分散法とセラミックビーズ、ガラスビーズ、スチールボール等を用いる湿式の媒体分散法がある。特に顔料を樹脂中に高濃度に分散させる方法としては、通常、二本ロール、三本ロール、加熱ニーダー、加圧加熱ニーダー、一軸押出機、二軸押出機等の混練分散機を使用して樹脂を溶融して顔料を混練分散させる方法が用いられる。これらのいずれの方法においても、混練分散加工は120℃以下の温度でなされることが望ましい。この比較的低温の加工温度条件で混練分散を行うことによって、予め微細に調整された顔料の粒子径が該組成物中にそのまま保たれ、引き続き行われる記録剤製造の加工工程を同様に120℃以下の温度条件で行うことにより、色相の鮮明性、冴え、透明性が発現される画像記録剤が得られる。
【0022】
顔料の高濃度分散方法として最も好ましい方法は、顔料の水性ペーストを溶融した樹脂でフラッシングする方法(常圧溶融フラッシング法)であり、例えば特開平2−175770号で提案されている方法等である。
具体的には、溶剤は全く使用せずに顔料の水性プレスケーキと樹脂バインダーを蒸気加熱の出来るニーダー又はフラッシヤーに仕込み、樹脂の融点又は軟化点未満の温度で常圧で混練して水性相の顔料を樹脂相に移行させ、分離した水を除去し、更に残存している水分を混練蒸発させる方法である。水性プレスケーキを使用することでプレスケーキの顔料粒子をそのまま樹脂中に移行させることが出来、又、混練分散加工温度も水が存在する間は100℃以下で進めることが出来るという特徴を有している。
又、好ましい他の高濃度顔料分散方法としては、粉末顔料、樹脂バインダーに分散剤として水を加えて、上記の方法と同様にして常圧で溶剤不存在下、加工温度を120℃以下で該樹脂の融点又は軟化点未満の温度で混練して顔料を樹脂相に移行させ、分離水は除去し、残存水は混練蒸発させる方法によっても高濃度着色組成物を得ることができる。
【0023】
本発明の画像記録用着色組成物を使用して製造される、電子写真、静電印刷、静電記録等の乾式現像剤、水性、油性及びソリッド状インクジェットインク、熱転写インクリボン、熱転写インクフィルム等の画像記録剤は、ジメチルキナクリドン顔料(1)と赤色顔料(2)との調色顔料を最初から各用途に適した顔料濃度となるように形成した該組成物をそのまま使用して、あるいは前記した顔料を高濃度に分散させた高濃度着色組成物を、樹脂バインダー、樹脂溶液あるいは付加重合性単量体中に分散あるいは希釈再分散し、それぞれの画像記録剤の製造の常法に従い、その際に必要に応じて従来公知の帯電制御剤、流動化剤、強磁性材料、溶剤媒体、水系媒体等を添加して製造される。
【0024】
例えば、電子写真、静電印刷、静電記録等に使用される画像記録用記録剤について述べると、乾式記録剤としては粉砕法及び重合法と呼ばれる懸濁重合法、乳化重合液凝集法等の製造方法によって製造される微細粉体状乾式現像剤が使用される。粉砕法は顔料、樹脂バインダー、帯電制御剤等を加熱混練し、冷却後、粉砕、所定の粒度に分級する製造方法であり、懸濁重合法は顔料、帯電制御剤等を分散させた付加重合性単量体を液滴の粒径を制御したO/W型エマルジョンとし、懸濁重合法により着色微粒子重合体とする方法であり、又、乳化重合液凝集法は乳化重合液に顔料や荷電制御剤の微分散液を混合し、得られた着色乳化重合液を加熱し、融着、凝集させる事により重合体粒子に顔料や帯電制御剤を共沈或いは吸着させると共に所定の粒度に微粒子化する方法である。それぞれ更に、必要に応じて従来公知の流動化剤、強磁性剤等の材料が添加される
【0025】
本発明の画像記録用着色組成物は、マゼンタ色の画像記録剤として単色ないし二色カラー、多色カラー等の個別色で使用される外、フルカラー記録システムとしてシアン色、イエロー色あるいは更にブラック色の画像記録剤とセットで一緒に使用され得ることは勿論である。
これらの有機顔料、無機顔料の例としては、フタロシアニン系、アゾ系、ポリ縮合アゾ系、アゾメチンアゾ系、アンスラキノン系、ペリノン・ペリレン系、インジゴ・チオインジゴ系、ジオキサジン系、イソインドリノン系、ピロロピロール系顔料等、カーボンブラック顔料、酸化チタン系、酸化鉄系、焼成顔料系、体質顔料等従来使用されている顔料が挙げられる。
【0026】
特にフルカラー記録剤に使用される顔料としては、シアン色の顔料としてフタロシアニン系ブルー顔料が、イエロー色としてはアゾ系、ポリ縮合アゾ系、アンスラキノン系、イソインドリノン系の各々の黄色顔料が、ブラック色としてはカーボンブラック顔料、アゾメチンアゾ系黒色顔料、各色の顔料の調色による黒色顔料等がそれぞれの代表的のものとして挙げられる。
これらの各種の顔料も本発明で使用するジメチルキナクリドン顔料(1)と赤色顔料(2)との調色顔料と同様に、画像記録用着色組成物を製造するフラッシング、加熱混練あるいは湿式分散等の通常の分散方法で樹脂中に分散させることによって平均粒子径が凡そ200nm以下、好ましくは凡そ150nm以下になる様に粒径が調整された顔料を使用することが好ましい。
【0027】

More specifically, a clear magenta color image-recording composition having negative charging characteristics and containing a dimethylquinacridone pigment having various fastnesses and fine particle diameters and at least one specific red pigment as a pigment, and its It relates to a manufacturing method.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Conventionally, in magenta color recording agents used for image recording such as full-color or mono-color electrophotography, electronic printing, electrostatic printing, ink jet recording, and thermal transfer recording, red oil-soluble dyes, disperse dyes, thioindigos are used as red pigments. Pigments, soluble azo lake pigments, insoluble azo pigments, dimethylquinacridone pigments and the like are used.

[Problems to be solved by the invention]
Among the red pigments used in the above-described magenta color image recording agent, dimethylquinacridone (2,9-dimethylquinacridone) pigment (CI Pigment Red 122), which is famous as a magenta color pigment, is used. Many.
This pigment alone has a disadvantage that not only the magenta color is too bluish and the coloring density is insufficient, but also the triboelectric charge of the pigment is positively charged and exhibits a considerably large value. For this reason, when the pigment is used in a negatively chargeable magenta recording agent, there is a problem that background staining is likely to occur.
[0004]
However, regarding red pigments used in magenta color image recording agents, oil-soluble dyes, dispersible dyes, etc. can be colored dissolvably in resin media, so they have high coloring power, but they are light resistant, heat resistant, and solvent resistant. There is a disadvantage that it is inferior in various fastnesses such as chemical resistance. Further, thioindigo pigments, soluble azo lake pigments, and insoluble azo pigments are also superior to dyes, but they are insufficient in fastness such as light resistance and heat resistance and sharpness.
Therefore, the dyes and pigments as described above are insufficient as dyes used for magenta colors for recording agents that require various fastness properties, sharpness, transparency, and negative chargeability, and have excellent physical properties. There is a demand for the development of pigments used in magenta colors for recording agents.
[0005]
As a result of various researches to develop a red pigment that can solve the above-mentioned conventional dyes for magenta color recording agents and satisfy various fastness, sharpness, transparency, and negative chargeability, By using a quinacridone pigment and at least one of the specific red pigments together, it is possible to provide an appropriate magenta color with the various fastnesses, sharpness, transparency, and negative charge required for this application. I found it.
Furthermore, by reducing the particle size compared to pigments used for conventional paints and plastic coloring, it is possible to exhibit properties that are excellent in hue clarity, texture, transparency, etc. The present invention has been completed by finding that an excellent recording agent for image recording can be obtained by using it as a colorant.

[0012]
In the above (B), the solid solution pigment of the dimethylquinacridone pigment (1) and the red pigment (2) is obtained by subjecting these mixed pigments to a solid solution state by the following pigmentation treatment. By using a solid solution, it is possible to improve the vividness, hue, transparency and negative chargeability of the hue.
The method of making the mixed pigment into a solid solution can be a conventionally known method and is not particularly limited.

In general, when dimethylquinacridone pigments or red pigments are used for coloring applications such as paints or plastics, the pigments have properties such as hiding power, ease of dispersion in media, weather resistance, and heat resistance. Therefore, the average particle diameter of the pigment is large, for example, adjusted to a size of about 500 to 700 nm. However, when this coarse pigment is used as a colorant for an image recording agent, there is a problem in that the transparency, tone and sharpness of the hue are lowered.
