Definitions
- This invention relates to improved materials for use in electrophotographic processes.
- the electrophotographic process also known as the xerographic or dry process
- This method consists in electrostatically charging a base material, having a photoconductive insulating layer adhering thereto, and thus rendering the photoconductive layer sensitive to light.
- the electrostatic charging of the layer is reduced at the places where the light strikes the layer.
- the invisible, latent elecsubstituted by an alkyl group having from one to five carbon atoms inclusive and in the 4 position of the nucleus relative to the tricyanovinyl radical may be substituted by a hydroxyl group or by a substituted or trostatic image so obtained can be rendered visible and fixed by various methods.
- Electrophotographic materials normally consist of support on which there is a photoconductive coating or layer. It is known to make this layer by using, as photoconductive substance, selenium, sulphur or zinc oxide or substances such as anthracene and anthraquinone.
- An electrophotographic material suitable as a reproduction material has to meet various requirements as regards applicability, reliability in use, lightsensitivity and stability.
- the first property determines whether or not the coating is useful for xerography.
- the coating must retain a charge long enough in the dark to permit image exposure and development.
- the second property determines the photographic speed of the coating. It determines the amount of exposure to a given source of radiation necessary for image formation.
- An object of the present invention is to provide a material for electrophotographic reproduction with improved properties in respect of the requirements above.
- a material for electrophotographic reproduction comprising a substrate and a photoconductive insulating layer adhering thereto, the photoconductive insulating layer comprising a resin and a photoconductive substance consisting of at least one compound having the general formula:
- A represents a pyrrole or indole nucleus which may be substituted by an alkyl group having from one to five carbon atoms inclusive, the tricyanovinyl radical occupying position 2 of the nucleus when A is a pyrrole group and position 3 of the nucleus when A is an indole ring; or A represents a phenyl nucleus which may be unsubstituted amino group.
- the hydrogen atom linked to the nitrogen atom of the pyrrole or indole nucleus may be substituted by an alkyl group having from one to five carbon atoms.
- the alkyl group may be branched or a straight chain group and preferred examples are methyl, ethyl, npropyl, isopropyl, n-butyl', isobutyl or tertiary butyl.
- R and R" represent hydrogen or lower alkyl groups such as methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, isopropyl, n-butyl, isobutyl or tertiary butyl and R is -OH or in which R, and R represent hydrogen or lower alkyl groups such as methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, isopropyl, n-butyl, isobutyl or tertiary butyl, save that when R, represents tertiary butyl, R, is hydrogen.
- R, and R, and R and R" may be the same or different.
- B-(tricyanovinyl)-indole 3-(tricyanovinyl)- N-ethyl-indole, 3-(tricyanovinyl)-N-methyl-indole, 3- (tricyanovinyl)-N-butyl-indole, 3-(tricyanovinyl)-N- isopropyl-indole, 2-(tricyanovinyl)-pyrrole, 2- (tricyano-vinyl)-N-ethyl pyrrole, 2-(tricyanovinyl)-N- methyl pyrrole, 2-(tricyanovinyl)-N-butyl pyrrole, 4- tricyanovinyl-2,6-dimethyl or diethyl phenol, 4- tricyanovinyl-N,N-diethyl or -dimethyl aniline, 4- tricyanovinyl-aniline, 4-tricyanovinyl-N-mon
- present invention do not require the addition of sensitizers to extend their sensitivity to the visible or infrared range of the spectrum. This will be explained in more detail hereinafter.
- the ratio of the tricyanovinyl compound to the resin binder may vary widely and is preferably within the range :1 to 1:10. A particularly preferred ratio is approximately 1:1.
- supp'orts may be widely varied.
- Metal foils e.g. of aluminum, zinc or copper are suitable as are cellulose products such as papers or regenerated cellulose.
- Plastics such as polyvinyl alcohol, polyamides, polyurethanes, cellulose acetate,-
- cellulose butyrate, polyesters, polycarbonates and polyolefins may be used also. Desirably the latter are covered with an electroconductive layer or converted into materials which have a specific conductivity of at least 10"" ohm cmf' e.g., by chemical treatment or by introduction of materials which render them electrically conductive. Glass plates or other insulators may also be employed. The glass may be provided with a thin conductive layer by vaporization e.g. the Nesaglass marketed by Pittsburgh Plate Glass Company.
- paper When paper is used as the support, it is preferably pretreated against the penetration of coating solutions.
- it may be treated with a solution of methyl cellulose or polyvinyl alcohol in water or with a solution of a copolymer or acrylic acid methyl ester and acrylonitrile, or with solution of polyamides or with dispersions of such substances.
- its electrical conductivity may be increased by addition of inorganic hydroscopic salts.
- the resin or binder in which the tricyanovinyl compound is dispersed may be any of the known resins used for making electrophotographic materials provided that their electrical volume resistivity is higher than 10' ohm. cm.
- Suitable polymeric binders include silicone resins, polystyrene, styrene-butadiene polymers, polyolefins, natural resins such as balsam resins, colophony and shellac, synthetic resins such as coumarone resins and indene resins or Beckacite resins, processed natural substances such as cellulose ethers, vinyl polymers such as polyvinyl chloride, polyvinylidene chloride, polyvinyl acetate, polyvinyl acetal, polyvinyl ethers, polyacrylic and polymethacrylic acid esters and isobutylene or chlorinated rubber.
- suitable binders reference is made to TAPPl, October, 1966, Vol. 49, No. 10,439 and TAPPI, September 1964,
- Optical sensitizers can be included in the photoconductive coatings to increase their sensitivity in the range of visible light.
- Suitable chlorophyll and dyestuff compounds selected from such groups as triarylmethane dyes, rhodamines, phthaleins, cyanines, thiazines and acridines.
- a particularly preferred class of sensitizers are phenol sulphone phthaleins e.g. Bromophenol Blue.
- sensitizers lie in the fact that many of these materials have a deleterious effect upon the insulating character of the photoconductive insulating layer. The result is that the maximum obtainable surface charge is not reached in the electrostatic charging of the photoconductive layer, and/or that the surface charge decreases too rapidly in the dark, i.e. that the material exhibits the phenomenon of a steep dark decay.
- An advantage of the compounds used in the present invention is that many of them are colored and that the action spectrum coincides with the absorption spectrum, i.e., electrophotographic material containing one or more of these compounds require none, or very litsensitizers are tle, addition of sensitizers for extending the spectral sensitivity in the visible parts of the spectrum. Thus the deleterious effect of the presence of sensitizers can be avoided.
- photoconductive insulating layers which consists wholly or partly of the materials to be used in accordance with this invention, can be sensitized very readily with known colorants, if this appears to be necessary for special reasons.
- sensitizers When sensitizers are used they may be employed in quantities of up to 3 percent by weight based on the weight of the photoconductive coating although small quantities of up to less than 0.01 percent by weight give effective'results.
- the preparation of the photoconductive material may be carried out by methods known in the art.
- a solution of the tricyanovinyl compound can be prepared in one or more organic solvents such as benzene, acetone, methylene dichloride, glycol monomethyl ether or dimethyl-formamide. This is then mixed with the resin and applied to the supporting matrix by painting, roller application or by spraying. It is possible for the compounds to be used in association with each other and/or other photoconductive compounds.
- Preferred coating weights lie between 1 and 50 gm/m, more preferably between 5 and gmslm
- the production of images by the electrophotographic method may take place as follows:
- the material After charging the photoconductive insulating layers, e.g. by means of a corona discharge from charging equipment operating at 6,000.to 7,000 volts, the material is exposed underneath an original or by projection.
- a very suitable method is cascade developing, wherein the developer consists of a mixture of a carrier and a toner. Glass beads, iron powder or other inorganic materials, or organic materials, for example, can be used as the carrier.
- the toner consists of a mixture of a fusible resin and a pigment or of a colored synthetic resin having a grain-size of l 100 p.
- the characteristic of the developer mixture is that, under the influence of the tribe-electrical effect, the toner particles can accept a charge of opposite sign to that of the carrier particles, the two components of the developer being so selected that the toner particles receive a charge of opposite sign to that of the electrostatic charge applied to the electrophotographic material, which charge is applied with the help of the corona discharge.
- the image that thus becomes visible can still be wiped off. It can be fixed by heating to about 100C. The temperature can be reduced if the action of the heat takes place in the presence of vapors from the solvents such as trichloroethylene. In this way positive images of positive originals are obtained.
- electrophotographic images can be converted into an offset master after fixing if the material is washed with a solvent for the photoconductive insulating layer, e.g. ethanol or acetic acid, whereby the image-free parts of the photoconductive insulating layer are removed thus exposing the hydrophilic base material (aluminum foil), and the material is then rinsed in water and rubbed with a grease-based ink in known manner.
- a solvent for the photoconductive insulating layer e.g. ethanol or acetic acid
- EXAMPLE IA One gm. 3-(tricyanovinyl)-indole and 1 gm. of a partially polymerized natural resin, e.g. the product marketed by the Hercules Powder Co. under the name Hercules Poly Pale W.G., are dissolved in 20 gm. dimethylformamide. This solution is poured on to an aluminum foil. After the solvent has evaporated, an orange photoconductive insulating layer is left, which adheres firmly to the surface of the aluminum. A negative charge is applied to the surface by means of a corona discharge, after which the layer is exposed for seconds, using a 40-Watt tungsten lamp at a distance of 1 meter. The resultant electrostatic image is rendered visible by powdering with a mixture of colorant and iron, the resin of the colorant being so selected that the colorant accepts a positive charge with respect to the iron (e.g. Hunt Toner Graph-o-fax 39-50).
- a partially polymerized natural resin e.g
- the aluminum foil can be converted into an offset master by removing the superfluous photoconductive material with the help of an appropriate solvent, e.g., the Ent Horner 255 coating remover sold by Kalle A.G. After washing with water, the master can be fixed in an offset machine and prints can be made from it.
- an appropriate solvent e.g., the Ent Horner 255 coating remover sold by Kalle A.G.
- EXAMPLE [3 One gm. 4-tricyanovinyl-2,6-dimethyl phenol and 1 gm. of a partially polymerized natural resin, e.g. the product marketed by the Hercules Powder Co. under the name Hercules Poly Pale W.G., were dissolved in 20 gm. methylene chloride. This solution was poured out on to an aluminum foil. After the solvent had evaporated, a yellow photoconductive insulating layer was left over, which adhered firmly to the surface of the aluminum. A negative charge was applied following the procedure of Example IA and a positive image ob tained as in Example IA. The aluminum foil can likewise be converted into an offset master.
- a partially polymerized natural resin e.g. the product marketed by the Hercules Powder Co. under the name Hercules Poly Pale W.G.
- Rhodamine-B extra (B.A.S.F.) was dissolved in gm. methylene chloride and added to a solution consisting of 1 gm. of 4-tricyanovinyl2,6- dimethylphenol and I gm. Beckacite K 125 in 20 gm. of benzene.
- a copy was obtained electrophotographically, as with Example IlIA, the exposure time for providing a good reproduction of the original also being 30 seconds.
- EXAMPLE IVA The procedure was the same as in Example III, but with the difference that Methylene Blue was used as the sensitizer.
- a photoconductive layer having very good properties was obtained by applying the solution of 1 gm. 3-(tricyanovinyl)-indole, 1 gm. Beckacite K 125 and mg. Methylene Blue in 30 cm of dimethyl-formamide to an aluminum foil, and then drying. In order to obtain the same quality of image as when no sensitizer was used, the exposure time must be reduced to 25 percent.
- EXAMPLE IVB A photoconductive layer having very good properties was obtained by applying the solution of 1 gm. 4- tricyanovinyl-2,6-dimethyl-phenol, 1 gm. Beckacite K I25 and 15 mg. Methylene Blue in 30 cm of methylene chloride to an aluminum foil, and then drying. Once again, to obtain the same quality of image as in the case when no sensitizer is used, the exposure time had to be reduced to 25 percent.
- Examples III and IV illustrate the effect of sensitizers. Their effect is still more clearly shown if sensitization is carried out with sensitizers for infra-red radiation and an iodine-vapor lamp is used to make the exposure, as will be seen'from the following Examples.
- EXAMPLE VA One gm. 3-(tricyanovinyl)-N-ethyl-indole and 1 gm. Beckacite K 125 were dissolved in gm. methylene chloride. To this was added 24 mg. crystal-violet BPC in 10 gm. methylene chloride. After application to an aluminum foil, drying and negative charging, exposure was carried out using a 1000 W. quartz-iodine lamp (General Electric) at a distance of 3.5 meters. For an unsensitized plate, the exposure time was 35 seconds, and for the plate sensitized with Crystal-Violet, only 2 seconds. Sensitizers such as xenocyanine, pinacyanol and Bromophenol Blue result in an appreciable shortening of the exposure time required.
- quartz-iodine lamp General Electric
- EXAMPLE VB One gm. 4-tricyanovinyl-N,N-dimethyl-aniline and 1 gm. Beckacite K 125 were dissolved in 20 gm.
- EXAMPLE VI One gm. 2-(tricyanovinyl)-pyrrole and 1 gm. of a hydrogenated natural resin, e.g. Hercules Staybelite, produced by the Hercules Powder Company, of Wilmington, U.S.A., were dissolved in 30 gm. methylene chloride. This solution was applied to Cellophane and dried. After the material had been electrically charged by means of a corona discharge, it was laid with the sensitive layer on a book-page printed on both sides and to the back of which was applied a black paper. The material was then exposed for 30 seconds, using a IOO-tungsten lamp at a distance of 50 cm. The exposure thus took place through the Cellophane. After exposure, the image was rendered visible by dusting with a carbon black-pigmented resin powder. A very high contrast positive mirror-image copy resulted.
- a hydrogenated natural resin e.g. Hercules Staybelite, produced by the Hercules Powder Company, of Wilmington, U.
- EXAMPLE VII A photoconductive insulating layer consisting of a solution of 1 gm. 3-(tricyanovinyl)-indole, 1 gm. Beckacite K and 5 mg. chloranil in a mixture of 5 ml. dimethyl-formamide and 15 ml. benzene was applied to an aluminum plate.
- the photoconductive insulating layer was charged, exposed in contact with a high-pressure mercury-vapor lamp as the light source, and developed.
- the exposure time was 5 seconds. Without adding chloranil, a comparable print was obtained after an exposure time of 45 seconds.

Beckacite K 125 and 7 mg. chloranil in a mixture of IO ml methylene chloride and 10 ml benzene was applied to an aluminum plate. The photoconductive insulating layer was charged, exposed in contact with a high-pressure mercury-vapor lamp as the light source, and developed. The exposure time was 1.5 seconds. Without adding chloranil a comparable print was obtained after an exposure time of 10 seconds.
