本発明はサーマルプリンターなどの熱記録装置で好適に
使用される熱転写紙に関する。さらに詳しくは、吸湿に
よるしわ発生を防止し、印字障害を防止した熱転写紙に
関する。DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a thermal transfer paper suitably used in thermal recording devices such as thermal printers. More specifically, the present invention relates to thermal transfer paper that prevents wrinkles due to moisture absorption and prevents printing problems.
近時、感熱プリンター、感熱ファクシミリ等で基材上に
熱転写インキを塗布してなる熱転写材が急速に用いられ

いる。基材としてプラスチックフィルムでは6〜9声の
PET(ポリエチレンテレフタレート)、紙では10〜
13jI程度のコンデンサ紙が通常用いられている。BACKGROUND ART In recent years, thermal transfer materials made by applying thermal transfer ink onto a substrate have rapidly come into use in thermal printers, thermal facsimiles, etc., and are capable of producing clear and durable images on plain paper. As a base material, PET (polyethylene terephthalate) with 6 to 9 voices is used as a plastic film, and 10~ with paper.
Capacitor paper of about 13jI is usually used.
6〜9sのPETを基材として、熱溶融性インキを3〜

字不能をおこすステック現象をおこしやすい。Using 6-9s PET as a base material, apply 3-3 to 30% heat-melting ink.
5? Thermal transfer paper coated with a smear of 0.5 to 1.5 mm can produce clear and high-resolution records, but it has the following drawbacks. That is, the surface of the PET film melts when it comes into contact with the thermal head and adheres to the thermal head, which tends to cause a sticking phenomenon that causes deterioration in image quality and inability to print.
通電時間の短かい高速記録においては印加電力が高いた
め、特にステック現象は著じるしい。In high-speed recording where the current application time is short, the applied power is high, so the stick phenomenon is particularly noticeable.
そこでプラスチックフィルム上にステック防止層を設け

。Therefore, attempts to provide a stick prevention layer on a plastic film have been proposed, and various publications can be found.

は使い捨ての消耗材である熱転写材としては価格が高く
実用性に乏しい。For example, in JP-A-55-7467, a heat-resistant protective film selected from the group consisting of silicone resin, epoxy resin, melamine resin, phenol resin, fluororesin, polyimide resin, and nitrocellulose is provided on one side of a plastic film. There is something. However, the exemplified thermal transfer material is a disposable consumable material and is expensive and impractical.
かかる理由からステック現象も生ぜず、価格の安いコン
デンサ紙が用いられるが、次に示す様な欠点を有する。For this reason, capacitor paper, which does not cause the sticking phenomenon and is inexpensive, is used, but it has the following drawbacks.

ンサ紙はU鮮度の高いバルブを使用する為、吸湿により
寸法変化を起こしやすい。In other words, thermal transfer paper is normally loaded in the form of a roll in a thermal recording device, but when the device is stopped for a while, wrinkles tend to form near the surface of the roll due to moisture. When printing, small wrinkles will cause a decline in image quality, and large wrinkles will greatly impair the print quality.Condenser paper uses a high-freshness bulb, so it is susceptible to dimensional changes due to moisture absorption.
一般にプンデンサ紙等の薄紙は含水率が8%以下1通常
は4〜5%と低いため、熱転写紙の基材として用いた場
合、高湿度雰囲気では吸湿により紙が伸び、しわが巻取
表面に生じる。In general, thin paper such as Pundensa paper has a moisture content of 8% or less (usually 4 to 5%), so when used as a base material for thermal transfer paper, in a high humidity atmosphere the paper will stretch due to moisture absorption and wrinkles will appear on the rolled surface. arise.

However, it easily occurs, making it difficult to use at practical operating temperatures and humidity.

点が解決され、実用可能な熱転写紙を提供しうるという
新たな事実を見出し、本発明を完成するに到った。However, in order to solve these drawbacks, the present inventors conducted intensive research and found that in thermal transfer materials in which hot-melt ink is applied on a base paper, the base paper has a density of 0.95 to 1.
.. 15 (JIS C2111 6.3), thickness 9-20
11 (JIS C2111 5.1), moisture content 9-15
% (8 of JIS C2111), these drawbacks can be solved and a practical thermal transfer paper can be provided, and the present invention has been completed based on the new discovery.
基紙の密度は0.95未満の場合、薄紙のために張張り
強度等の物理的強度が弱く、熱転写紙の製造上トラブル
が起きやすく、またプリンターでの走行中でも切れやす
く、扱いにくい。その上熱転写性も悪化する。基紙の密
度が1.15より大なる場合は紙の空隙量が少ないため
に吸湿による繊維の伸びが、そのまま伝ばんされ紙中が
伸びてしわを生じやすい。When the density of the base paper is less than 0.95, the paper is thin and has low physical strength such as tensile strength, which tends to cause problems in the production of thermal transfer paper, and is easy to tear while running in a printer, making it difficult to handle. Moreover, thermal transferability also deteriorates. When the density of the base paper is greater than 1.15, the amount of voids in the paper is small, so the elongation of the fibers due to moisture absorption is propagated as is, and the paper is likely to elongate and cause wrinkles.
基紙の厚さは9111未満の場合、物理的強度が弱く実
用的でない。また基紙の厚さが20#より大なるものは
、熱転写性が悪くなり熱エネルギーが多量に必要になる
。When the thickness of the base paper is less than 9111, the physical strength is weak and it is not practical. Furthermore, if the thickness of the base paper is more than 20#, the thermal transferability will be poor and a large amount of thermal energy will be required.
基紙の含水率は9%未満の場合、吸湿によるしわが発生
しやすく、15%より大なる場合はカーボンインキの塗
抹性が悪化する。When the moisture content of the base paper is less than 9%, wrinkles are likely to occur due to moisture absorption, and when it is more than 15%, the smearability of carbon ink deteriorates.
