Definitions
- the present invention also extends to the color-forming compounds employed and their process of preparation.
- the present invention relates to a pressure-sensitive copying paper.
- a pressure-sensitive copying paper is based on application of the principle that an electron-donative and color-reactive colorless organic substance is caused to react with an electron-acceptive substance in a medium of a non-polar oil solvent to produce a color.
- the electron-donative and color-reactive substantially colorless organic substance includes such compounds as leuco methylene blue, crystal violet lactone, rhodamin B lactam, and acid rhodamin B sulfone, etc.
- the electron-acceptive substance includes such substances as acid clay, active clay, attapulgite, aluminum sulfate, natural zeolite, kaolin, bentonite, silica gel, feldspar, pyrophylite, halloysite, magnesium trisilicate, zinc sulfate, zinc sulfide, calcium fluoride, lead sulfates, lead sulfide, and an organic acid or salt such as calcium citrate, tan
- the pressure-sensitive copying paper comprises a combination of a sheet having microencapsulated thereon the above color-former dissolved in a nonpolar solvent such as benzene, toluene, trichlorodiphenyl, coated on a paper, and a sheet having coated thereon the electron-acceptive substance together with a binder on a paper.
- a sheet having coated thereon the microcapsule on one side and the electron-acceptive substance on the other side is placed between the above two 3,703,398 Patented Nov. 21, 1972 ice DESCRIPTION OF THE PRIOR ART
- the principle form or preparation process which are described above have been known for a long time. (See US. Pat. Nos. 2,548,366, 2,711,375, 2,730,256, 2,812,507, 2,800,457 and 2,800,458.)
- the primary object of the present invention is to provide a pressure-sensitive copying paper having encapsulated therein a novel compound as a color former.
- the pressure-sensitive copying paper of the present invention is one incorporating as its color former a compound represented by the following formula:
- R is an alkyl group of from 1 to 4 carbon atoms, R; and R each is a hydrogen atom, a halogen, a nitro group, an alkoxy group of from 1 to 4 carbon atoms (wherein the alkyl group is an alkyl group having from 1 to 4 carbon atoms), an alkoxy carbonyl group of from 1 to 4 carbon atoms, or an aldehyde group.
- microcapsule containing a solution of the above-mentioned compound and the electron acceptive substance may be simultaneously coated on the surface of paper.
- the microcapsule containing a solution of color former can be prepared according to the specification of US. Pat. No. 2,800,457 and British Pat. Nos. 1,- 091,076, 1,091,077 and 1,091,078.
- the compounds shown by the above-mentioned formula are generally prepared by the following process: The process is carried out at a temperature ranging from about C. to about C.
- Z-aminobenzothiazole and halogenated lower alkyl, dimethyl sulfate or diethyl sulfate p-toluene sulfonic acid alkyl ester are reacted in equimolar ratios.
- the quaternary salt so obtained and a salicyl aldehyde equimolar derivative can be refluxed in a lower alcohol (e.g., ethanol), acetonitrile, ethyl acetate or acetaldehyde, in the presence of an equimolar portion of triethylamine to obtain a compound shown by the above formula.
- a lower alcohol e.g., ethanol
- acetonitrile ethyl acetate or acetaldehyde
- the compound so obtained has sufficiently excellent properties as a compound for pressure-sensitive copying paper capable of forming red to red-violet when contacted with the electron-acceptive substance.
- the compound is microencapsulated together with a conventional color former such as crystal violet lactone or benzoyl leuco methylene blue, whereby various colors such as black are obtained when the mixture of color formers is contacted with the electron-acceptive substance.
- a conventional color former such as crystal violet lactone or benzoyl leuco methylene blue
- Example 1 3.4 parts of 3-methyl-Z-aminobenzothiazolium p-toluene sulfonate and 1.2 parts of salicyl aldehyde were dissolved in parts (by volume) of ethanol and 1 part of triethyl amine was added thereto. After refluxing for about 3 hours, the mixture was allowed to stand and crystallize. This mixture was filtered and re-crystallized from ethanol to obtain 1.4 parts of a white crystal, 3-methyl spiro [benzothiazoline-2,2' 2H (1,3)benzoxazine]. The melting point of this compound was 155 to 159 C.
- a solution of this compound in benzene was microencapsulated and coated on the surface of paper which was then combined with clay paper, the surface of which was coated with acid white clay, and a binder. Upon being pressured with typewriter, the pressured part was immediately colored red.
