[Technical Field] The present invention relates to a heat-sensitive recording material. [Prior Art] In general, a heat-sensitive recording material is one in which a heat-sensitive coloring layer capable of forming a colored image by heating is provided on a support such as paper, synthetic paper, plastic film, or metal-deposited paper. Records can be obtained simply by heating, so it can be used not only for copying books and documents, but also for recording the output of computers, facsimile machines, various measuring instruments, and writing on ID cards, commuter passes, train tickets, etc. It is used. A large number of these heat-sensitive recording materials have been put into practical use, and representative examples include combinations of metal salts of higher fatty acids and gallic acid, combinations of diazo compounds and coupling agents, and lactones and lactams. Alternatively, a combination of a leuco dye having a spiropyran ring and an organic acid is known. [Objective] The purpose of the present invention is to improve the color image density of a heat-sensitive recording material using a color reaction between benzoyl peroxide and a naphthol compound. [Structure] According to the present invention, a heat-sensitive coloring layer containing benzoyl peroxide, a naphthol compound that develops color by reacting with benzoyl peroxide when heated, and a metal chloride is provided on a support. A thermosensitive recording material having the following characteristics is provided. The heat-sensitive recording material of the present invention utilizes a color-forming reaction between benzoyl peroxide and a naphthol compound. Although the mechanism of this color reaction is not clear,
This is thought to be due to the reaction between the two, producing a product with a new resonance structure that absorbs light in the visible region. Heat-sensitive recording materials that utilize this color-forming reaction provide clear images and have excellent resistance to organic solvents, but they have the disadvantage that the image density is slightly inferior to that of leuco dye-based materials. As a result of intensive research aimed at improving this point, the present inventor found that metal chlorides have the effect of accelerating this coloring reaction, and therefore, we have developed a thermosensitive resin containing benzoyl peroxide and naphthol compounds as main components. The present inventors have discovered that image density can be improved by incorporating it into the coloring layer, and have completed the present invention. The naphthol-based compound used in the present invention reacts with benzoyl peroxide when heated and develops color.
-naphthol, β-naphthol and their derivatives. Examples of naphthol derivatives include:
Various amides of hydroxynaphthoic acids such as 3-hydroxy-2-naphthoic acid, e.g. naphthol
AS, N-ethyl-3-hydroxy-2-naphthamide, N-pyropyl-3-hydroxy-2-naphthamide, N-γ-morpholinopropyl-2-
Examples include hydroxy-3-naphthamide.
In the present invention, the naphthol compound and benzoyl peroxide may be used in an appropriate ratio so that the two react with each other when heated to form a color. Usually, the benzoyl peroxide is used per part by weight of the naphthol compound.
0.05 to 50 parts by weight are used. Further, examples of metal chlorides include zinc chloride, tin chloride, nickel chloride, calcium chloride, and the like. The proportion of these metal chlorides used is preferably 0.1 to 10 parts by weight per 1 part by weight of benzoyl peroxide.
0.5 to 5 parts by weight is preferred. If it is less than 0.1 parts by weight, the effect of increasing image clarity will be weak, and if it exceeds 10 parts by weight, the image clarity will decrease and the support (in the case of paper) will become weak. occurs. The support used in the present invention includes those commonly used in conventional heat-sensitive recording materials, such as paper, synthetic paper, plastic film, metal-deposited paper, and cloth. In the present invention, in order to bind and support the benzoyl peroxide and naphthol compounds on the support, various binders commonly used in heat-sensitive recording materials using leuco dyes can be used as appropriate.
For example, polyvinyl alcohol, starch and its derivatives, cellulose derivatives such as methoxycellulose, hydroxyethylcellulose, carboxymethylcellulose, methylcellulose, and ethylcellulose, sodium polyacrylate, polyvinylpyrrolidone, acrylic amide/acrylic ester copolymer, acrylic amide/ Water-soluble polymers such as acrylic acid ester/methacrylic acid terpolymer, styrene/maleic anhydride copolymer alkali salt, isobutylene/maleic anhydride copolymer alkali salt, polyacrylamide, sodium alginate, gelatin, casein, etc. Others, polyvinyl acetate,
polyurethane, styrene/betadiene copolymer,
Latexes such as polyacrylic acid, polyacrylic acid ester, vinyl chloride/vinyl acetate copolymer, polybutyl methacrylate, ethylene/vinyl acetate copolymer, styrene/butadiene/acrylic copolymer, etc. can be used. In addition, in the present invention, along with the benzoyl peroxide and naphthol compounds, if necessary,
Furthermore, auxiliary additive components commonly used in heat-sensitive recording materials using leuco dyes, such as fillers, surfactants,
A thermofusible substance (or lubricant), etc. can be used in combination. In this case, fillers include, for example, calcium carbonate, silica, zinc oxide, titanium oxide, aluminum hydroxide, zinc hydroxide, barium sulfate, clay, talc, and surface-treated inorganic fine powders such as calcium carbonate and silica. In addition, organic fine powders such as urea-formalin resin, styrene/methacrylic acid copolymer, and polystyrene resin can be mentioned, and examples of thermofusible substances include higher fatty acids or their esters, amides, or metal salts. Besides,
Various waxes, condensates of aromatic carboxylic acids and amines, phenyl benzoate, higher linear glycols, dialkyl 3,4-epoxy-hexahydrophthalates, higher ketones, other thermofusible organic compounds, etc. Examples include those with a melting point of about 50 to 200°C. The heat-sensitive recording material of the present invention is produced by applying a heat-sensitive coloring layer coating solution containing the above-mentioned components onto a support and drying it. [Effect] According to the present invention, image density is improved by incorporating a metal chloride into the heat-sensitive coloring layer of a heat-sensitive recording material that utilizes a color-forming reaction between benzoyl peroxide and a naphthol compound. At the same time, an inexpensive heat-sensitive recording material with low background density and good organic solvent resistance can be obtained. [Example] Next, the present invention will be explained in more detail using Examples. Note that all parts and percentages below are based on weight. Example 1 Liquids A and B were prepared by grinding and dispersing mixtures having the following compositions in a ball mill for 24 hours, and the resulting liquids A and B were further mixed at a ratio of 1:1 to prepare a heat-sensitive coloring layer coating liquid. was prepared.

m 2 ) and dried to obtain a heat-sensitive recording material having a heat-sensitive coloring layer with a coating weight of 7 g/m 2 . Example 2 The following liquids C and D were prepared and used in place of liquids A and B in Example 1 to obtain a heat-sensitive recording material of the present invention in the same manner as in Example 1. [Liquid C] Benzoyl peroxide 4 parts Stearic acid amide 2 parts Polyvinyl alcohol (10% aqueous solution) 10 parts Water 34 parts [Liquid D] β-naphthol 5 parts Calcium chloride 2 parts Fine silica powder 1 part Methyl cellulose (5% aqueous solution) 20 parts water 22 parts Example 3 A heat-sensitive recording material was obtained in the same manner as in Example 1 except that the following liquid E was used instead of liquid B in example 1. [Liquid E] 3-hydroxy-2-naphthanilide (naphthol-AS) 7 parts Urea-formalin resin fine powder 1 part N-octadecylcarbamoylbenzene 1 part Zinc chloride 4 parts Isobutylene-maleic anhydride copolymer ammonium salt (10% Aqueous solution) 25 parts Water 12 parts Comparative Example 1 A heat-sensitive recording material for comparison was prepared in the same manner as in Example 1 except that crystal violet lactone (leuco dye) was used instead of benzoyl peroxide in Solution A of Example 1. I got it. Comparative Example 2 A heat-sensitive recording material for comparison was obtained in the same manner as in Example 1, except that zinc chloride was removed from Solution B in Example 1. The heat-sensitive recording materials of the present invention and comparative heat-sensitive recording materials obtained as described above were used as samples to conduct tests for color development and organic solvent resistance. The results are shown in Table-1. In the color development test, each sample was printed using a thermal gradient tester (manufactured by Toyo Seiki Seisakusho Co., Ltd.) under the conditions of 150℃, 2Kg/cm 2 , and 1 second, and the image density and background color at that time were printed. Concentrations were determined by measuring using a Macbeth RD-514 densitometer. For organic solvent-resistant products, ethanol was dropped onto the image area and non-image area, and the image and background density were measured after air drying.
