The polyester resin can be branched or crosslinked using trifunctional or multifunctional reagents, such as trimethylolpropane or pyromellitic acid, in an amount, for example, from about 0.1 to about 6 mole percent based on the diacid. or initial diester selected to prepare the polyester resin, and branching agent which can be represented in Formulas I to III above incorporating the branching segments, p, q, ros as illustrated in the formulas Ace where R "is a multivalent aromatic radical with, for example, from about 6 to about 30 carbon atoms, or an aliphatic radical with from about 3 to about 20 carbon atoms, such as the tri or tetravalent derivatives of propane, butane, pentane, hexane, cyclohexane, heptane, octane, benzene, naphthalene, anthracene and the like, and p, q, rys represent the branching segments and in the embodiments each are from about 0.1 to about 6 mole percent based on the initial diacid or diester used to generate the resin and provided that the sum of the segments pyq, orys is 100 mole percent of the polyester resin In the embodiments, the present invention relates to the preparation of the polyester resin, and where the hydroxyl groups and the final acid of the resulting polyester were minimized and preferably avoided.Polyester resins are known to contain acids and hydroxyl of about 20 to about 1,000 milliequivalents per gram of polyester, usually present as end groups. It is believed that these final hydrophilic groups can cause the organic pigment compositions to have tribo-charge performance which is sensitive to moisture, where the triboelectric charge ratio of low moisture to high humidity organic pigment compositions is from about 2.8 to about 4.5, and usually from about 3.0 to about 3.5. To reduce According to the sensitivity to relative humidity of polyester-based organic pigments, the present invention minimizes the final hydrophilic groups, such as the hydroxyl or acid portions on the polyester resin, by protecting the ends of the polyester with hydrophobic groups, such as alkyl portions, consequently resulting in organic pigments with low sensitivity to moisture in embodiments such as from about 1.0 to about 2.8 and preferably from about 1.0 to about 2.5. Another embodiment of the present invention relates to obtaining an organic pigment composition with excellent triboelectric stability and rapid mixing in less than about 1 minute and preferably less than about 30 seconds, for example from about 5 to about 15 seconds, organic pigment which contains a polyester resin with a hydrophilic portion, such as a sodium sulfonate group, present on the main chain of the resin. A further embodiment of the present invention relates to the preparation of a polyester resin with monofunctional monomers that protect the ends of the polyester resin to result in the polyester resin mentioned above with final hydrophobic groups, and where the concentration of the monofunctional hydrophobic monomers is from about 0.1 mole percent to about 4 mole percent based on the initial diacid or diester used to generate the resin, and therefore controls the weight average molecular weight of about 4,000 grams per mole to about 250,000 grams per mole, especially when monofunctional monomers are selected with a carbon chain length of from about 4 to about 24 or where larger monomers such as 1,2-naphthalene ethanol, or phenylmethanol are used; and wherein a hydrophilic portion such as a sodium sulfonate group is present in the main chain of the polyester resin, and wherein the concentration of the hydrophilic portion is from about 0.1 to about 5 weight percent of the resin, and so preferably from about 0.5 to about 2.5 weight percent of the resin. The organic pigment composition mentioned above and the developer thereof, ie the organic pigment mixed with a carrier, has a low sensitivity to relative humidity for organic pigments in the embodiments of the present invention, which is desirable since the triboelectric load remains stable with changes in humidity conditions environmental. Additionally, organic pigments possess rapid blending characteristics, such as less than about 60 seconds, and preferably less than 30 seconds, for example about 5 to about 15 seconds, and low minimum fixing temperatures, such as 130 ° C to about 145 ° C, with wide melting latitudes, such as from about 30 ° C to about 90 ° C. Copiers and printers equipped with two-component developers, ie, an organic pigment as a component mixed with the carrier as the other component, can exhibit a positive or negative triboelectric charge with a magnitude of about 5 microcuffs per gram to about 40 microcuffs per gram. gram. This triboelectric charge allows the organic pigment particles to be transferred to the latent image of the photoreceptor with an opposite charge, thereby forming an organic pigment image on the photoreceptor, which is subsequently transferred to a paper or a transparent substrate, and then it will be subjected to fusion or fixation processes. In those developing systems, it is important that the triboelectric charge be stable at different ambient humidity conditions so that the triboelectric charge does not change substantially more than about 5 to about 10 microcouples per gram. A change of more than about 5 microcuffs per gram to about 10 microcuffs per gram in the triboelectric charge of the organic pigment developer can produce non-uniform organic pigment images or result in deposition of organic pigment on the photoreceptor, thereby unbalancing the density or gray scale observed in the revealed images, or results in unrevealed images at all. Generally, moisture ranges can differ from less than about 20 percent in dry regions to more than about 80 percent in humid regions and some geographic regions can exhibit fluctuations in the level of up to about 50 percent to about 90 percent. humidity in the same day. In such climates, it is important that the developed triboelectric charge does not change more than about 5 microcoulumbios per gram to about 10 microcoulumbios per gram. Since the resins of the organic pigment generally represent from about 80 percent to about 98 percent by weight of the organic pigment, the sensitivity of the resin to moisture or moisture conditions should be minimized so as not to affect the adverse way the triboelectric charge of the same. In addition, the organic pigments should preferably possess rapid mixing characteristics, so that when the copiers and printers are replenished with fresh organic pigments, the developers can restore the necessary triboelectric charge within less than 1 minute, and preferably less than 30 minutes. seconds. A number of organic pigment polymer resins used as organic pigment compositions, such as for example styrene-acrylates, styrene-methacrylates, styrene-butadienes and especially polyesters, contain from about 0.1 to about 2 weight percent moisture, and in In some cases, the moisture content of the polyesters may change from about 0.1 to about 4 weight percent at moisture levels ranging from about 10 to about 100 percent, or more usually from about 20 percent to about 80. percent moisture These changes in the moisture content of the resin can have a dramatic adverse effect on the triboelectric charge of the organic pigment and revealing it. The sensitivity to relative humidity of the organic pigment is commonly measured by first making an organic pigment comprised of a pigment, an optional charge control agent and a resin, then mixing the organic pigment from about 3 weight percent to about 7 weight percent with a carrier. The developer composition is then balanced at various moisture levels in a sealed chamber at controlled temperatures of 60 ° F (15.55 ° C) to a 20% RH and 80 ° C to 80 ° F (26.66CC) for a period of time. period of approximately 48 hours. The triboelectric charge for the same developer composition is then measured at different moisture levels and the results are analyzed by various methods, such as plotting the tribo-electric charge as a function of the moisture level and observing the regions in which dramatic changes occur. Another measurement method comprises dividing the aforementioned graphical interpolation of the tribo against the moisture level in three regions, where the region A is from about 0 to about 30 percent moisture, the B region is from about 30 to about 65 percent of moisture, and region C is greater than about 65 percent moisture to about 100 percent. Since these measurements are embarrassing and time consuming, the triboelectric charge can be measured after subjecting the organic pigment developer composition to two moisture levels, such as a relative humidity of 20 percent and a relative humidity of 80 percent, and then calculating the relative sensitivity for the ratio of the triboelectric charge of relative humidity from 20 to 80 percent as follows Equation 1: Tribo-electric load at RH of 20% at 60 ° F (15.55 ° C) Sensitivity to Relative Humidity = Tribolectric Load to RH of 80% at 80 ° F (26.66 ° C) where RH is the relative humidity. Thus, if the sensitivity of the relative humidity is about 1, the composition of organic pigment is considered insensitive to moisture, whereas if the sensitivity to moisture is greater than 3, the composition of organic pigment is considered sensitive to humidity. It is generally believed that organic pigments prepared with a number of polymeric materials exhibit a relative sensitivity greater than 1.0, and in general, organic pigments based on styrene and butadiene or styrene and acrylate have higher moisture sensitivities than 1.0 and less than about 2.5, while, in general, organic pigments based on polyester have a sensitivity to relative humidity greater than 2.5 and less than approximately 5. Consequently, an advantage of binder resins of the styrene type Acrylate or styrene-butadiene for organic pigments over polyester is its lower sensitivity to relative humidity. It is known that polyesters have advantages over styrene-based resins, such as low fixation temperatures of about 120 ° C to about 140 ° C, and deviating properties different from those of vinyl. Therefore, there is a need for organic pigment compositions comprised of a resin possessing many of the above-mentioned advantages, such as low fixation temperature of about 120 ° C to about 140 ° C, deviating properties different from those of vinyl , in addition to low sensitivity of the tribocharge as a function of relative humidity, so that the ratio of the triboelectric charge to a RH of 20 percent and 80 percent is from approximately 1.0 to approximately 2.5. These and other advantages are maintained in embodiments with the organic pigment compositions of the present invention comprised of a pigment, optionally a charge control agent, and a modified polyester resin where the final groups are hydrophobic portions, and the organic pigment exhibits a low fixing temperature of about 120 ° C to about 140 ° C, deviating properties different from those of vinyl, and low sensitivity to relative humidity, such as from about 1.0 to about 2.5. In addition, the presence of hydrophobic end groups provides an improved process for obtaining polyesters.
Specifically, the concentration of monomer and monofunctional groups provides control of the molecular weight of the polyester product, and its reproducibility. The process for the preparation of the polyester resins of the present invention is known as a gradual condensation or polymerization process. The condensation process involves the addition of bifunctional monomers, which results in dimers, followed by the reaction of the dimers with dimers to form tetramers, or dimers with monomers to form trimers. The reaction sequence then continues so that those dimers, trimers and tetramers react with each other to form multiples thereof, known in the art as oligomers, which in turn react with other oligomers to form the polyester. In this kinetic scheme, the degree of polymerization is achieved by terminating the reaction at the desired point, and therefore depends on time. It is known that obtaining a specific degree of polymerization depending on the time of polymerization of the polymerization process by gradual reaction is very difficult. One method for controlling the degree of polymerization is to adjust the composition of the reaction mixture away from the stoichiometric equivalence, adding a non-volatile monofunctional agent in an amount of about 0.1 mole percent to about 4 mole percent based on the diacid or diester initial used to produce the resin. In the present invention, the monofunctional monomers used are, for example, hydrophobic monomers. The degree of polymerization can be further controlled by the amount of monofunctional monomer used, thereby limiting the degree of polymerization as determined by its concentration, so that the total amount of final groups is to provide the amount of monofunctional monomer employed. . This helps the reproducibility of the product by adjusting the amount of monofunctional monomer to the limit of the desired degree of polymerization, thereby avoiding total dependence on polymerization time. Additionally, the organic pigment resin of the present invention contains a hydrophilic portion, such as an alkali salt of a sulfonate group, which group is believed to impart long-term triboelectric stability, such as from about 250,000 to about 1,000,000 impressions or copies, and whose function also allows rapid mixing in less than about 1 minute and preferably less than about 30 seconds. The organic pigment compositions of the present invention in the embodiments thereof have excellent characteristics as indicated herein, and maintain their triboelectric charge characteristics during a prolonged number of imaging cycles up to, for example, 1,000,000 in a number of modalities.
There is a need for organic pigments with low sensitivity to relative humidity, such as from about 1 to about 2.8, and preferably from about 1 to about 2.5, as calculated by Equation 1, and where excellent stability is achieved triboelectric, such as from about 250,000 to 1,000,000 impressions or copies, with a rapid mixing time, such as less than about 1 minute and preferably less than about 10 seconds, and where low minimum fixing temperatures are obtained, such as from about 120 ° C to about 140 ° C with a wide melting latitude such as from about 30 ° C to about 45 ° C, where the melting latitude is considered the difference between the minimum fixing temperature and the temperature to which the organic pigment is diverted towards the fusion member. These and other needs can be met with the present invention in the modalities thereof.
