【発明の属する技術分野】
この発明は、定期券等に代表される感熱記録媒体、特に、熱転写印刷によりデータを印字記録する感熱記録媒体であって、印刷面の汚れの防止と印字の摩耗の防止との両立を図った感熱記録媒体に関する。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
感熱記録媒体、例えば、定期券は、有価証券であるため、汚れや印字の損傷を避けることが不可欠である。そこで、汚れの防止を図った感熱記録媒体が特公昭61−31516号公報や特開平9−24679号公報等で提案されている。例えば、特公昭61−31516号公報には、基体フィルムの一面に磁気層を基体フィルムの他面に印字適性を有する材質層と地紋印刷層を積層し、さらに、この地紋印刷層を耐汚染性材質層で被覆した感熱記録媒体が記載されている。そして、耐汚染性材質層は、アクリル樹脂系のインキを用いたグラビア印刷等により、高さが3μm程度の複数の突起を無地網状に、あるいは、所定の厚みのベタ状に形成される。
【0003】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
しかしながら、上述した従来の感熱記録媒体にあっては、耐汚染性材質層が熱溶融インキの浸透性に劣り、熱転写印刷に際して溶融したインキが耐汚染性材質層上に残留しやすく(残留インキを図1中に仮想線Aで示す)、この残留したインキが使用に伴い摩耗して印字のかすれ等を生じるという問題があった。特に、定期券にあっては、近年の自動改札機の普及により摩擦力が加えられる頻度も高く上述の問題も顕著であり、有価証券としての性質から改善が強く要望されていた。
この発明は、上記問題に鑑みてなされたもので、熱転写印刷による印字の定着性に優れ、また、汚れの付着防止等の耐汚染性(防汚性)にも優れた感熱記録媒体を提供することを目的とする。
【0004】
【課題を解決するための手段】
上記目的を達成するため、この発明は、基材の一面に熱溶融性インキの定着層を汚れ防止層により被覆して設けた感熱記録媒体において、
前記汚れ防止層を、樹脂バインダ100重量部にワックス40〜300重量部、タルク50〜200重量部およびシリカ50〜150重量部を含む組成物から構成した。
そして、この発明にかかる感熱記録媒体は、平均粒径が2〜4μmのシリカを用いる態様(請求項2)に構成することができる。
【0005】
基材は、厚さが100〜300μm程度の合成紙、上質紙、コート紙等の紙材、あるいは、ポリエステル系樹脂、ポリアミド系樹脂、ポリ(メタ)アクリレート系樹脂、ポリ塩化ビニル系樹脂等の樹脂シートから、望ましくは、ポリエチレンテレフタレート(PET)樹脂、ポリブチレンテレフタレート(PBC)、ポリ塩化ビニル(PVC)樹脂、ポリカーボネート(PC)樹脂、ポリオレフィン(PO)樹脂の樹脂シートから構成される。
【0006】
熱溶融性インキの定着層は、ポリエステル樹脂等の樹脂バインダにシリカ等のフィラーを配合した樹脂組成物を用い、印刷やコータ等で1〜10μm程度、好ましくは、2〜5μm程度の厚みに形成される。この定着層の望ましい態様としては、樹脂バインダにガラス転移点が50〜80°C程度のポリエステル樹脂を用い、基材との密着性を高める。
【0007】
汚れ防止層は、使用時に媒体表面のゴミ、ほこり、手垢、皮脂等が定着層に吸着されるのを防ぐもので、樹脂バインダにワックス、タルクおよびシリカ等を配合した樹脂組成物を用い、印刷やコータにより1〜2μm程度の厚みに形成される。この樹脂組成物は、樹脂バインダ100重量部に対して、サーマルヘッドや磁気ヘッドに対する滑り性付与の観点からワックスを40〜300重量部、防汚性と印字の摩損の防止の観点からタルクを50〜200重量部、シリカを50〜150重量部配合したものが用いられる。
【0008】
そして、樹脂バインダとしては、ポリエステル樹脂、ポリブチラール樹脂、ポリビニルブチラール樹脂、エポキシ樹脂、フェノキシ樹脂、アクリル樹脂、ポリウレタン樹脂あるいは塩化ビニル−酢酸ビニル共重合体等の用いられる。また、ワックスとしては、キャンデリラワックス、カルナバロウワックス、ライスワックス等の植物系ワックス、パラフィンワックス、マイクロクリスタリンワックス、ペトロラタム等の石油系ワックス、フィッシャー・トロプシュワックス、ポリエチレンワックス等の合成炭化水素系ワックス、モンタンワックス誘導体、パラフィンワックス誘導体、マイクロクリスタリンワックス誘導体等の変性ワックスが用いられる。さらに、シリカは平均粒径が2〜4μm程度のものが用いられる。
【0009】
また、この発明における感熱記録媒体は、必要に応じて定着層上に地紋印刷層等を設け、この地紋印刷層上に汚れ防止層を設け、また、定着層と反対側の面に磁気記録層を設けることもできる。地紋印刷層は、地紋等の繰り返し模様からなり、合成樹脂のバインダに顔料等を配合したインキを用いてオフセット印刷あるいはグラビア印刷等で形成される。
【0010】
さらに、基材の他面に磁気記録層を形成してもよく、磁気記録層は、樹脂バインダに磁性粉体等が配合された組成物を用いて印刷やコータ等により5〜20μm程度の厚みに形成される。樹脂バインダとしては、ポリエステル系樹脂、アルキッド系樹脂、ビニル系樹脂、ポリウレタン系樹脂等が用いられ、また、磁性粉体としては、粒径が10μm以下のBa−フェライト等が用いられる。
【0011】
【作用】
この発明にかかる感熱記録媒体は、熱溶融性インキの定着層を汚れ防止層により被覆し、この汚れ防止層を樹脂バインダ100重量部に対して40〜300重量部のワックス、50〜200重量部のタルクおよび50〜150重量部のシリカが配合された組成物で構成する。このため、汚れ防止層は、溶融したインキの浸透性に優れるとともに、熱転写印刷時に定着層まで浸透しきれなかったインキを吸収し、また、汚れが付着しにくく、印字の摩損防止と防汚性の両立が図れる。
【0012】
【実施の形態】
以下、この発明の実施の形態を図面を参照して説明する。
図1はこの発明の一の実施の形態にかかる感熱記録媒体の模式断面図である。
【0013】
図中、1は基材であり、基材1の裏面には磁気記録層2が保護層3により被覆されて設けられ、基材1の表面には印字定着層4と地紋印刷層5が積層形成され、地紋印刷層5上に汚れ防止層6が設けられて地紋印刷層5を被覆する。基材1は、厚みが100μm〜300μm程度のPET等の樹脂シートからなる。磁気記録層2は、樹脂バインダに磁性粉体が配合された組成物を用いて印刷やグラビアコータ等で、あるいは、磁気テープを貼合することで形成される。保護層3は、アクリル系樹脂の組成物をコータ等で所定の厚みに塗工して構成される。
【0014】
印字定着層4は、ポリエステル樹脂にシリカ等を配合した樹脂組成物を用いて印刷やコータ等で2〜5μm程度の厚みに形成され、熱転写印刷による熱溶融インキを受容する。地紋印刷層5は、地紋等の繰り返し模様をオフセット印刷やグラビア印刷等で印刷して形成される。
【0015】
汚れ防止層6は、ポリエステル系等の熱可塑性の樹脂組成物あるいはエポキシ系等の熱硬化性の樹脂組成物を用いて印刷等で形成される。樹脂組成物は、ポリエステル等の樹脂バインダ100重量部に、ワックス40〜300重量部、タルク50〜200重量部、平均粒径が3μm程度のシリカ50〜150重量部を配合したものがものが用いられる。
【0016】
この実施の形態にかかる感熱記録媒体にあっては、基材1表面の印字定着層4上に地紋印刷層5と汚れ防止層6を積層して設ける。そして、汚れ防止層6は、樹脂バインダ100重量部に対して、吸油量が大きなシリカを50〜150重量部、防汚性に寄与するタルクを50〜200重量部およびワックスを40〜300重量部含有する。このため、表面に汚れが付着しにくく、また、熱転写印刷に際しても浸透性に優れ溶融したインキが定着層4に浸透しやすく(図1中、定着層4に受容されたインキを交差するハッチングで示す)、また、熱転写印刷時に汚れ防止層6自体が定着層まで浸透しきれなかったインキを吸収するため、インキが表面に残存することが無く、印字の摩損等が防止される。

[Prior art]
Thermal recording media, such as commuter passes, are valuable securities, so it is essential to avoid smudges and print damage. In view of this, a heat-sensitive recording medium in which contamination is prevented has been proposed in Japanese Patent Publication No. 61-31516 and Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 9-24679. For example, in Japanese Patent Publication No. 61-31516, a magnetic layer is laminated on one surface of a base film, and a material layer having a printability and a tint block printing layer are laminated on the other side of the base film, and the tint block printing layer is further made resistant to contamination. A thermal recording medium coated with a material layer is described.
