- thermographic reproduction method in which a heatlabile reactant of a two-reactant color-forming system carried in a heat-sensitive layer of a heat-sensitive recording material is rendered non-reactive by exposure to a heat image of the information to be reproduced and unaifected reactant remaining in the unexposed areas of the layer are transferred to a copy material brought in contact therewith for reaction with the second reactant of the color-forming system provided on the copy material, producing on the copy material a colored image corresponding to the unexposed areas of the recording material.
- the heat-sensitive material preferably includes heat-absorptive material uniformly distributed in heatconductive relation to the heat-sensitive layer, most preferably within the same layer, and the heat-absorptive material preferably converts electromagnetic radiation, especially infra-red radiation, to heat.
- a recording material useful in the method which includes a heat-sensitive layer uniformly containing a heat-labile reactant of a color-forming system as well as a finely divided material adapted to absorb infra-red radiation and convert the same to heat.
- the present invention relates to a method of recording and reproducing information by means of heat. More particularly the present invention relates to a thermographic method for producing thermostable prints.
- a recording element containing a reactive compound or composition which is destroyed, blocked or reduced in reactivity or removed from the said element by the action of the image-wise or record-wise applied or induced heat.
- the said compound or composition remains at disposal for reacting with a compound applied thereto or can be transferred to a receiving element eg by diffusion, tearing out, or vaporization so as to produce in the receiving material a change in physical or chemical character, e.g. a change in light absorption, a change in colour or colour density.
- a change in colour can be produced by a colour coupling reaction, a change in colour density by a bleaching out reaction.
- the heat to be supplied during the recording step can be supplied by conduction of thermal motion, e.g. from infra-red absorbing image-markings on an original to the heat-sensitive element, but is preferably produced in the heat-sensitive element itself by the conversion of electromagnetic radiation into heat in substances that are distributed in the heat-sensitive material and that are in heat-conductive contact with the compound or composition which has to be destroyed, blocked in reactivity or removed from the heat-sensitive element by heating.
- a direct or reflectographic exposure technique can be used.
- a reflectographic exposure technique is preferably applied and using a recording material containing in the recording element (e.g. layer) or in an element or coating in heat-conductive relationship therewith, a substance or substances that absorb the copying light, and convert it into heat.
- the transparency of the recording material used for reiiectographic exposure is preferably such that at least 20% and at most of the copying light is transmitted.
- Refiectographic exposure is possible when carrying out the present invention, not only when the information to be recorded is supplied as a visible light pattern but also when it is supplied as a pattern of infrared radiation if an element is used (whether forming part of the recording material or not) which transmits a certain amount of infra-red radiation but is selectively or dilferentially heated in view of the radiation reflected from the original (see Belgian patent specification 664,- 329).
- substances that absorb copying light (or infrared radiation) and convert it into heat may if desired be present in and/or on a layer other than the thermosensitive layer of the thermo-sensitive material, provided there is sufficient thermal contact to conduct heat generated therein to the thermo-sensitive substances.
- Such other layer may be another layer of the thermo-sensitive material or a layer (e.g. a self-supporting layer, or a supported layer or coating) forming or forming part of a material separate from the thermo-sensitive material, in other words a heat pattern can be firstly produced, in a separate element and conducted therefrom to the heatsensitive material.
- a layer e.g. a self-supporting layer, or a supported layer or coating
- a heat pattern can be firstly produced, in a separate element and conducted therefrom to the heatsensitive material.
- the recording process according to the present invention comprises the following features:
- the intensity of the exposure and the sensitivity of the recording element containing said radiation absorbing substances, which convert the applied radiation into heat are chosen in such a Way that on the absorption of the light or other rays directed to the original and striking undiiferentially the light-sensitive layer, the heating resulting therefrom, causes practically no or only a slight inactivation or loss of the reactive compound or composition.
- the additional image-wise heat resulting from the image-Wise reflected radiation produces in the recording material the practically useful image-wise elimination of the said compound or composition.
- the original to be reproduced when applying a reflectographic exposure technique the original to be reproduced must be an original containing image areas or an imagebackground that reflect(s) copying radiation, e.g., light or a transparency which has copying light absorbing image areas and which during the exposure is held with its back side in contact with or near proximity to a copying light reflecting material.
- reflect(s) copying radiation e.g., light or a transparency which has copying light absorbing image areas and which during the exposure is held with its back side in contact with or near proximity to a copying light reflecting material.
- a colour reactant or colour bleaching compound or composition which can be destroyed, blocked in reactivity or removed from the said element by heating, is applied with or without a binder to a suitable support.
- the support may be permeable so that said compound or composition can be incorporated therein by impregnation.
- a binder said binder can be chosen so that, in softened state, it can be transferred to a receiving material.
- Suitable binders are ex. gelatin, carboxymethyl cellulose, tragacanth gum, alginic acid and the salts or esters thereof, poly(vinyl alcohol), poly(acryl amide), poly- 4 (vinyl pyrrolidone), ethylhydroxyethyl-cellulose, ethylcellulose, poly(vinyl butyral), cellulose triacetate, cellulose acetobutyrate, ethylcellulose-p-sulphonic acid benzoate, sucrose benzoate, poly(methyl methacrylate), polystyrene, polyethylene, polypropylene, poly(ethylene terephthalate), copoly(vinyl chloride/alkyl acrylate), copoly(nitrostyrene/maleic acid/monoethyl maleate), copoly(styrene/monoethyl maleate), copoly(vinyl methyl ether/maleic anhydride), copoly(maleic acid/nitrosty

- thermosensi tive recording layer during the exposure with visible light, is in uniform heat-conductive relationship with coloured substances that absorb light of a determined part ofthe visible spectrum and convert it into heat;
- a thermosensitive recording layer optically sensitised in this way can be used for recording coloured light patterns.

- reaction compounds in the heat-sensitive layer are preferably used in an amount of 10'- to mol per sq.m.
- the support (if any) for the heat-sensitive element is selected dependent upon the exposure technique applied, for example, according to whether contact printing, in which the radiation is transmitted through the original to the heat-sensitive layer or reflex printing, in which the radiation is transmitted through the heat-sensitive layer to the original, is used. In the latter case the support should absorb as little copying light as possible. If the heat-sensitive element is a self-supporting layer, it is of course not necessary for the recording: material to comprise a support from such layer.

- the heat-sensitive compound or composition which remained intact i.e. which is still present, after the imagewise exposure to heat, can be developed on the recording material itself or transferred to a receiving material containing a reactant for said compound or composition-The transfer can be carried out by means of a liquid or by non-differentially supplying an amount of non-destructive heat in order to vaporize or melt the thermosensitive image-forming compound or composition so that it can diffuse in that state to the receiving material.
- the non-destructive heat preferably effects in the heatsensitive element an increase of temperature comprised between 50 and 250 C.
- the effectiveness of the recording with electromagnetic radiation substantially depends on the intensity of the radiant energy.
- a recording layer that does not provide a sufficient differentiation in concentration of thermo-sensitive reactive compound or composition with a particular source of electromagnetic radiation energy may be fully effective if the energy level is substantially increased.
- Radiant energy of a brief duration and of high intensity is preferably used.
