Definitions

  • a novel recording medium which comprises a supporting sheet coated with an opaque coating, having a color differing from that of the surface coated, and being so constituted that the impact of mechanical force renders the coating translucent in the impacted area.
  • the novel medium comprises a sheet provided with a coating of a color different from that of the surface coated, said coating being so constituted that the application of mechanical force, such as the impact of a typewriter key or stylus, results in a legible mark in the impacted area.
  • mechanical force such as the impact of a typewriter key or stylus
  • Such mechanical force may be applied by means of a pointed implement.
  • impact such as by means of a typewriter key, may be resorted to.
  • a recording medium comprises in combination a supporting sheet, such as paper, cardboard, plastic sheeting or the like, coated with an opaque layer of a polymeric substance as defined, having a foamed structure, admixed with a binder for enhancing its adhesion to the supporting sheet, said coating differing in color from the color of the surface coated and so constituted that the impact of mechanical force on said coating renders the coating translucent in the impacted area.
  • a supporting sheet such as paper, cardboard, plastic sheeting or the like
  • an opaque layer of a polymeric substance as defined having a foamed structure, admixed with a binder for enhancing its adhesion to the supporting sheet, said coating differing in color from the color of the surface coated and so constituted that the impact of mechanical force on said coating renders the coating translucent in the impacted area.
  • the polymeric substance to be used for producing the coating, according to the invention are preferably polyolefins. Best results were obtained with polyethylene having a molecular Weight in the range of between about 3000 and 150,000. According to a preferred embodiment of the invention there is used a supporting sheet having a colored surface, the color of which determines the color of the resulting script or marks. On the other hand a colored coating may be resorted to. Although different organic binders may be used, especially satisfactory results were obtained with natural or synthetic rubber or with polystyrene.
  • Recording media according to the invention may be used for different purposes.
  • the use in automatic recording instruments is self evident, so is the use of suitably coated thin colored paper for obtaining copies of type- Written script. taining copies of receipts and the like, written by a ball pen or the like.
  • the coating is prepared from a solution obtained by dissolving a polymeric substance, such as polyethylene, in a suitable solvent, such as aromatic hydrocarbons, aliphatic hydrocarbons or halogenated hydrocarbons, if necessary at elevated temperatures, to which there is added a suiiicient quantity of organic binder, such as natural or synthetic rubber, polystyrene or the like.
  • a polymeric substance such as polyethylene
  • a suitable solvent such as aromatic hydrocarbons, aliphatic hydrocarbons or halogenated hydrocarbons, if necessary at elevated temperatures
  • organic binder such as natural or synthetic rubber, polystyrene or the like.
  • the coating solution contains between about 1% and 10% by weight of the polymeric substance and from about 0.2% to 5% by weight of the organic binder.
  • FIGURE 2 A schematic representation of the process steps for the preparation of the present article is illustrated in FIGURE 2.
  • a sheet of paper having a blue glossy surface is coated on its colored side by means of a solution prepared as follows: 6 grams of polyethylene of molecular weight of about 6000 are introduced into 100 cc. of xylene, heated to a temperature of 65-70 C. and kept at this temperature until the polymer is dissolved. To the hot solution there are added about 10 cc. of 5% solution (by weight) of polystyrene in benzene.
  • the solution is applied (preferably while still hot) to the colored side or" the paper, so as to result in an even layer of about 1050 microns. Applications by means of brushing or spraying gave equally satisfactory results. After evaporation of the solvent the paper is ready for use.
  • the thus prepared recording medium gave a clearly legible script when used underneath the original in a typewriter.
  • the thus prepared recording medium gave a clearly legible script when used underneath the original written upon with a ball pen.
  • the thus prepared recording medium gave a clearly visible mark when used in an automatic recording instrument, and subjected to the application of pressure by means of a stylus.
  • the resultant coating had a red color, the script a blue one.
  • Example 3 White cardboard having a smooth surface, was coated with a coating as used in Example 2. The markings obtained were a different shade of red than the color of the coating, clearly visible to the eye.
  • Such coated paper may be used for ob- A sheet of paper having a black surface, is coated on the colored side by means of a solution prepared as follows:
  • a quantity of 3 grams of polypropylene (having a melt index of 1-9, determined by ASTM D1238-52T, and a specific gravity of 0.90-0.91, and commercially available as Moplen polypropylene resin from Montecatini Chemical Company) was dissolved in 100 ml. of boiling carbon tetrachloride. After dissolution of the polypropylene a quantity of 10 ml. of a 10% by weight solution of polyisobutylene in high boiling gasoline was added at a temperature of 70 C.
  • the coating of the paper with the solution was effected at an elevated temperature. After evaporation of the solvent the paper was ready for use.
  • the thus prepared recording medium gave a clearly visible script when used underneath the original in a typewriter. A number of satisfactory copies could thus be obtained.
  • the paper was stored for a number of months without deterioration.
  • a process for the production of a pressure sensitive recording medium of the auto-copy paper type which comprises (a) dissolving a material selected from the group consisting of polyethylene having a molecular weight in the range of from 3,000 to 150,000 and polypropylene having a melt index of 1-9 and a specific gravity of 0.90-0.91, in a solvent selected from the group consisting of aromatic hydrocarbons, aliphatic hydrocarbons and halogenated hydrocarbons;
  • a process for the production of a pressure sensitive recording medium which comprises (a) dissolving a material selected from the group consisting of polyethylene having a molecular weight in the range of from 3,000 to 150,000 and polypropylene having a melt index of 1-9 and a specific gravity of 0.90-0.91 in xylene;
  • a process for the production of a pressure sensitive recording medium which comprises (a) dissolving a material selected from the group consisting of polyethylene having a molecular weight in the range of from 3,000 to 150,000 and polypropylene having a melt index of 1-9 and a specific gravity of 0.90-0.91, at an elevated temperature in xylene;
  • a recording medium comprising a supporting sheet coated with an opaque pressure sensitive layer adapted to be rendered translucent in a predetermined area upon the impact of mechanical force in such area, said recording medium having been produced by the process as defined in claim 1.
