- a suitable paper coating is provided by first applying an inexpensive base coating consisting essentially of clay and crude soybean flour. I have used such a soybean fiour which is sold under the name Prosein" as the adhesive in the base coating.
- the soybean flour is dissolved or liquefied by the use of about 5 percent of caustic soda based on the weight of the flour.
- the weight of the base coating applied to the body stock may vary within a relatively large range. In this connection it is noted that I prefer to coat both sides of the body stock not only to the end that both sides may be used in the production of the resin film but also because paper coated on both sides has less tendency to curl.
- a suitable range for the weight of the base coating is from 2 to 12 pounds dry weight per side per ream, a preferred weight of coating being about 6 pounds per side per ream, it being understood that depending upon the surface character of the paper body stock and the character of the base coating, a sufficient weight of coating must be applied to cover the fibers of the body stock and to give, after calendering, a level surface free of cracks and crevices.

Description
Patented Apr. 20, 1954 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE CASTING SUPPORT AND PROCESS OF MANUFACTURING SAME No Drawing. Application February 8, 1950, Serial No. 143,163
14 Claims. 1
In one process for the manufacture of sheets of thermoplastic film-forming materials such as vinyl resins, the film-forming material in the form of a solution or dispersion is deposited on a supporting surface, dried thereon, heated to fuse the deposited material into a homogeneous film, cooled and stripped off. Ornamental sheets may be formed for instance by printing one or more designs in color on the supporting surface and then applying a complete coating of clear or colored solution. Such a process is disclosed in Patent No. 2,486,258.
An object of my invention is to provide a coated paper suitable for use as the support in the above described and similar processes and for other purposes.
Essential and desirable characteristics of the support are the following:
It should have a surface to which the resin coating will adhere when freshly applied so that, e. g. a colored pattern printed thereon will not slide or skid and become distorted and from which the resulting sheet will separate cleanly, it should be flexible and strong and capable of withstanding the tension and heat to which it is subjected in the coating and heating operations, it should not vary materially in length or width when subjected to variations in temperature and tension, it should be resistant to wrinkling and curling and it should be inexpensive and capable of being used repeatedly.
I have found that a highly suitable support having the desirable characteristics described above may be provided in the form of a coated paper web or sheet.
The coated paper in accordance with my invention preferably has a strong and fairly heavy body stock. An example of a suitable paper body stock is one formed of 60 percent of long fiber and 40 percent of short fiber, rosin sized in the beater, the sheet weighing about 95 pounds per ream (500 sheets x 38 inches). Such a sheet has been found to have adequate tear resistance or tensile strength and resistance to curling and creasing. It will be understood, however, that although such a relatively heavy body stock is preferable for use in the process described above the invention is not limited thereto and embraces the use of body stocks of other weights and compositions.
The paper coating which provides the surface upon which the resin film is formed must provide a surface to which the wet resin coating will adhere but from which the dried and fused film will separate cleanly. The paper coating must alsobe flexible, smo'oth,"'strongly adherent to the .body stock, sufiiciently strong in itself that it will not be pulled apart or pick when the resin coating is stripped off and free of porosity or cracks into which the resin coating may penetrate. I have found that a suitable paper coating is provided by first applying an inexpensive base coating consisting essentially of clay and crude soybean flour. I have used such a soybean fiour which is sold under the name Prosein" as the adhesive in the base coating. In making a coating composition of the soybean flour and clay, the soybean flour is dissolved or liquefied by the use of about 5 percent of caustic soda based on the weight of the flour. The weight of the base coating applied to the body stock may vary within a relatively large range. In this connection it is noted that I prefer to coat both sides of the body stock not only to the end that both sides may be used in the production of the resin film but also because paper coated on both sides has less tendency to curl.
A suitable range for the weight of the base coating is from 2 to 12 pounds dry weight per side per ream, a preferred weight of coating being about 6 pounds per side per ream, it being understood that depending upon the surface character of the paper body stock and the character of the base coating, a sufficient weight of coating must be applied to cover the fibers of the body stock and to give, after calendering, a level surface free of cracks and crevices.
Clay is used as the pigment or filler in the base coating because it is inexpensive and finely divided and gives a strong level coating which is free of imperfections but the clay may be substituted wholly or in part by other finely divided inert pigments such asblanc fixe, talc, satin white, etc. I
The soybean flour is used in the base coating because it is inexpensive and gives a smooth and sufiiciently strong coating but it may be substituted wholly or in part by other adhesives such as milk casein, soybean protein, glue, starch, etc. bearing in mind that the coating must be sufiiciently adherentto the paper body stock and sufiiciently strong and flexible to resist the pull involved'in stripping the resin film from the paper. In substituting other adhesives for the soybean fiour it is to be borne in mind also that soybean flour is only about, half active adhesive and half inert material. Thus in substituting the soybean flour by casein one would use only half the quantity of casein.
In using soybean flour the ratio thereof to filler or pigment (clay) may vary within a considerable range, e. g. from 0.5 to 3 parts by weight of clay to l partby weight of the'soybean fiour,
a ratio of at least l part of clay to 1 part of soybean flour usually being preferred, with a ratio as high as 3 to 1 being very satisfactory in certain cases. In general, the base coating is one having av relatively high adhesive content, i. e. a coating which is strong and strongly adherent to the paper body stock. The base coating must be sufliciently hydrophilic that the aqueous top coating will wet and adhere toit.
characteristics of the top coating are important. Most important of these characteristics .re that the top coating must be sufliciently'adherent to the base coating toresist separation when the resin film is stripped off, it must be sumciently strong in itself to preventseparation or picking, it must be capable of being wettedrby and of holding the wet resin coating and it must be impenetrable by and capable of separating cleanly from the dried and baked resin coating. Since the resin coating generally i in the formof a greasy ink the topcoating must be receptive thereto.
I have found in producing'the top coating that it is. necessary to use a pigment or filler such as clay the coating'in order to give the surface suifici'ent adherenceto the wet or fluid resincoating. Finely divided clay is the 'preferred'filler but may be substituted wholly or in. part by'other finely divided-fillers such as blanc fixe.
As the adhesive for the top coating I have found methyl cellulose to be most satisfactory.
A third essential ingredientof the top coating is ahume'ctant such as ethylene glycol, diethylene glycol, glycerine, propylene glycol; sorbitol, urea, urea nitrate. etc. Although it has been determined to be essential to-usea humecta-nt inthe top'coating composition in order to produce a finished surface from whichthe resin film may be separated satisfactorily it is not known precisely how or why the humectantcontrlbutes' tothis result. It appears that the humectant is essential in'the production-of a surface having the desired properties but that it may not'be essential in the finished coating because it appears that all or substantially all of the humectant may be lost from the top coating when the latter is dried and supercalendered. In thecase of glycol-s only a small: residual quantity amounting to no more than a trace may remain in the finished topcoa-ting and may or may not affect the surface characteristics of the'ccating whereas in the cas of glycerineall or a very substantial uantity're mains in the finished coating and is'at least'not detrimental. It is my present opinionthat the humectant is essential in the production of the desired top coating surface but that it. has little or no effect on the properties of the-finished coating and may be either present or absent in. the final-product in actual use. It is my opinion that the humectantin the coating as applied to the paper serves to prevent thepaper from curling beicrecalendering and to prevent crackingduring calendering and probably alsoto promote a greater degree of flow of the coating during calendering and consequently the production of a more level and closed-up (impermeable) surface.
The pr portions of filler, preferably a fine grade of paper coating clay, methyl cellulose and humectant, preferably diethylene glycol, in the top coatingare variable as follows. The weight of clap in the coating composition may vary with respect to the weight of the methyl'cellulose from 0.2 to v2 parts byweight of clay to 1 part by weight of the methyl cellulose but I have found that a weight of the methyl cellulose at least equal to the weight of the claygenerally is preferred and that the optimum ratio is about 1 to 1. The amount of humectant in the top coating composition as applied also may vary with respect to the weight of methylcehulo'se therein fromofi to 1 part by weight of diethylene glycol to 1 part by weight of methyl cellulose. Here again a ratio in the neighborhood of l to 1 gives best results. The preferred top coating composition as applied therefore contains equal parts by Weight of methyl cellulose, clay and diethylene glycol.
The Weightof top coating applied to the paper, disregarding the volatile vehicle (water) but including the humectant, part or all of which may belost inufinishing the coating, may vary from about;3.'5 to 10.5 pounds per side per ream. With the composition containing equal parts by weight of clay, methyl cellulose and diethylene glycol, the range is from 3.5 to 7.5 and with a composition cQntainingZ parts. by weight of: clay to 1 part by weight of methyl cellulose and 1 part byweight of diethylene glycolthe range is 6.5 to 10.5 pounds per-sidepe-r'ream.
ln'manufacturing'the coated paper product a better product can be produced by calendering the paper. base stock since this contributes to'the production, of a final level surface but the-improvement obtained by calendaring the paper stock is not generally suificient to warrant the expense involved and: is therefore generally omitted.
The base coating and the top coating'are both carefully supercalendered. in amoist or damp state so as to produce'the maximum smoothing and levelling of the final surface.
Summarizing the foregoingthe-preierred procedure and materials are-as follows:
(a) A base stool: of about 9513011111215 per ream, not supercalenderedgi (b) A base coating. consisting'essentially of 1 part by weight otclay and 1 part by weight of soy-beanflour applied to, the paper at a solids content of; about 35 percent and at the rate of about dpounds dry weight per side per ream and supe calendered moist; and
(cl A. top coating consisting essentially as applied of' equalpar-ts by weight of-clay methyl celluloseanddiethyl ene glycol. at the rate of. about 4 pounds (dry weight) per' side per ream and supercalendered-moist.
Inthe preparation of the top coating a suitable procedure is. as follows: Themethyl cellulose is wetted out with hotwater because,- al.- though methyl cellulose is not soluble inhot water it is. more'readily wetted by hot water than, by cold. water. The resulting mixture of methyl cellulose and hot wateris then diluted with cold water containing ananti-foaming agent such as butanol, the total amount of. water usedbeingv sufficient to givev 2111810110 percent solution ofv .the.methylcellulose; Clay dispersed in water (65 percent solids) isthen .stlrredinto the -methyl cellulose; solution and finally-theme ethyleneglycolis-added and mixed by stirring,
