PROCESS OF MAKING CARBON PAPER.

Application filed January 12, 1925. Serial No. 1,807.

The present invention relates to carbon coating 2 or at least before the cooling or paper, and an object thereof is to provide a contraction of the color coating, a coating carbon paper which is non-curling. A fur- 3 in a hot condition is applied to the oppo- -ther object of the invention is to provide an site face of the sheet. This last mentioned 5 improved process of making carbon paper, coating may be formed from caseine, wax,

whereby the same becomes non-curling 1n a glue substance or similar material and use. which contracts when cooled an amount sub To these and other ends, the invention stantially equal to that of the color coating consists of certain parts and combinations upon cooling, so that both sides of the sheets of parts, all of which will be hereinafter dewill be sub ected substantially to the same scribedrthe novel features being pointed out contracting stresses, both coatings being in the appended claims. cooled immediately and simultaneously In the drawing: It is apparent that there is produced by .The figure is an enlarged sectional view this process a non-curling paper with a color of a carbon sheet constructed in accordance coating on one side not penetrating the with this invention. sheet, and a coating on the opposite side The best modern carbon paper is made by not penetrating the sheet, the two coatings applyingthe color coating to a carrier sheet having substantially the same contracting comprising the best English and German properties when cooled and dried. tissue papers.
